Reggaebass

Nice job Brian, what did you use to clean it so well

The heptones on studio one , I’ve read that, up park camp was based on this tune

Id better hide mine then 😁

What not even the baggy Union Jack 🇬🇧 ones 😁

Welcome Steve 👍

That’s a great one Mario, Robbie was so good, one of the best , thank you 🙏

Thanks ud, what a great tune, and I may have to steal that Bassline

Thanks for posting some great tunes @taunton-hobbit 👍, someone on another reggae forum i visit reminded me of this track that I hadn’t heard in a long time, anyway I went down a bit of a rabbit hole searching and there’s lots of great variations , I’m sure you’ll recognise the riddim .

Same as many basses from this era , it’s a player’s bass and I think that’s reflected in the price , if it wasn’t for the rout in the back I’d be tempted, but that’s just me

Different knobs in the first picture

Think I’ve seen that before, I remember the patch in the back

I’ve got them on my 1024 too but they seem to sound brighter on that bass with the amp on the same settings, maybe it’s the pickups, but could also be the age of the strings, I think they are the newest ones I bought

Nice one ☝️

I found that they start to feel good after about 2-4 weeks of regular playing, a lot quicker than the 760FS I’ve got as they took ages, if you’re ok with the TI tension I think you might like them

Everything as Lee says really, they are in my opinion the warmest sounding labella’s especially when played in, the tension is fairly low but not low as in floppy, about the same as TI’s , I’ve got 760FL’s on another precision and they are definitely brighter sounding, I’ve got a worn in set on my 71P for that classic P with flats sound and it’s a perfect match, on my jazzes you have the pickup options for more varied tone if you need it , I play reggae so they are good for my sound, I don’t have a spare set at the moment or I would send you them to try, I’m looking for some more myself

Welcome peter 👍

That’s a stunner Admiral, congrats

Welcome Kate

Nice work, I don’t really know any iron maiden ,I’d say most songs can be Reggaefied if you get the rhythm right, it seems that the ,Easy Star All Stars did ok out of covering pink Floyd with Dub side of the Moon

One precision I bought with a maple fingerboard was a bit grimy, I used some of miss RB’s makeup wipes to clean it up as they don’t contain alcohol , and buffed it with an old T shirt

Pretty sure I’ve read before that lemon oil is not good for maple boards, it’s mainly for the rosewood and darker ones

Two for a Friday, first up is Sammy Dread Rainy Days, such a great voice and dub style scientist Beam Down, will be playing this Bassline tomorrow

Good description Paul, that’s how I found it, playing reggae it really sounded better than the stock pickup , I also had the cap changed in my P to a 0.1 I think, to give me an even warmer sound , I get really nice lows now
