Reggaebass

Thanks, enjoyed that, i like the trill she adds on Is this Love, great player

Haven’t listened to rod Taylor for a while and this came up , it’s from the album called Vocal and Dub , he’s got another good one called, Rod Taylor meets Don Carlos at Dubstation, it’s worth a listen

Another nice one from Clinton, Trod on

Pictures are essential here 😁

Good news to hear he’s okay

Amazing knowledge , thanks very much 👍

Welcome 👍

Nice, cool looking jazz 👍, perhaps @Bassassin would have some info 🙂

Great one, nice voice and rhythm 👍

Daniel Miller dropping a nice Bassline here , rock your bones

Yeah it’s on reggaeville, massive loss , I remember him from my youth

If it’s all working ok and there’s no loose connections I’d leave it alone myself, if a pot or something needed replacing then that would be the time to do it, otherwise I wouldn’t tamper 🙂

Yeah they are just for string identification but I have seen pictures of people using them to extend the string, not something I would fancy doing

Think you’re gonna like this one, George Faith around 1977 great rhythm

Top job, nothing wrong with that 👍

I’d agree with everything clarky has said above, I’ve had a few jazzes where the silks went over the saddles and to my ears there was no noticeable difference, if you don’t feel comfortable trimming the silks back I think Detroit flats have no silks at the ball end, I personally wouldn’t go drilling out to move the bridge , edit, just noticed they are TI’s , maybe swap strings over

Oh yeah very nice, how is it

I don’t do FB but I could see some pictures, it looked good, they don’t hang around long

I’m on this today, quite a few ghost notes in there so good practice

I think they updated it with the ultra , I tried the ultra but preferred my one, I especially like the truss rod adjuster, so simple

If it’s the right bass I’d say it’s easily done, I think that’s the key thing, I had others but I pretty much played one precision for over 5 years, then one day at a friend’s house I picked up his jazz and just loved it and I got hooked on jazzes, i like owning lots of basses now but I could quite easily if I put my mind to it just play my 71 precision and nothing else , it’s nice to be fortunate enough to have the choice now, back in the day money was tight and buying basses wasn’t a priority

Great one, that was a big tune back in the sound system days, along with this

Alain M has a few new ones on his channel , this is a nice Bassline, Blackheart Man

It’s a tricky one isn’t it, not knowing whether it’s how they are or if it’s something else, i think @beastie had one a few years back, perhaps he could advise
