Ah yeah, I’ve found that too, I’ve landed on the wrong fret a few times, I’ve been playing it quite a bit today and I think I’m getting used to it 🙂

I haven’t tried that yet 😁, but I’m sure you could, they are really well built little basses aren’t they

I bet the tunes sound superb through your system, especially the dubsters, I play mine through my bass rig , markbass 15s with an interface, then I can play along, I haven’t got as much vinyl as I used to have so I too have to rely on YouTube, but some of the songs aren’t on YouTube, I was thinking of starting a channel but I don’t really have the time . btw, I like the Pluto track, haven’t heard that in a long time 🙂

They look really good 👍

It would be worth getting it authenticated by a reputable person/shop , they can check the neck stamp, pot dates and wiring, pickups, bridge, etc, and take lots of pictures for you and provide you with the paperwork, which would help you value and sell it, or if your going to keep it it’s nice to know what you’ve got . I nearly bought a 66 jazz a few weeks ago and the guy sent me about 50 pics which was fantastic

Have you had a look under the pickguard yet 🙂

Yeah I totally get that ubit, I don’t really dig in as such, I play with a soft touch so I can get away with a low action with no fret noise or buzz, whereas a friend of mine plays in a heavy metal band and when I’ve seen him play he plays quite hard, his action is about 3mm on his jazz, he can play my basses but I find his hard work to fret , perhaps I’m just lazy 😁

I’ve found out that the original was by Winston Curtis-Otis brothers 1973, great tune

Those are great looking stingrays hiram

@ezbass I forgot I had one of those, i bent the arms in a bit and it sits perfect, top man ☝️, thanks guys

Good shout, I’ve got one of those in a box somewhere, I’ll go and look 👍

That’s plan B 😁

Cheers , I’m using a markbass keeper at the moment

Looks like it’s only available in the US

Spot on ez, many thanks 👍

Which one please Prof

Well I’m now in the headless club, I bought a Hohner B2A and I’m absolutely loving it, especially in active mode, it’s got a great sound and it’s really comfortable to play, quick question, what stand are you guys using for them , google wasn’t a lot of help

Listening to the Horace Andy album -Dance Hall Style , last night and this track is just so good also Hits Pon Hits put this out yesterday, I’m really liking it but can’t find the original, unless this is the original ? has anyone heard another version

It’s great 👍, there’s a lot more bass and it sounds better on the one you posted

I like the version at 5.51, is that jimmy London or the gladiators

Do you mind, that’s one of my better pieces of joinery 🤓

Cool 👍, even though it’s apart it looks good

Is that really how it came or did you just take it apart

Strangely I’ve never weighed any of my basses, I’m not too bothered what they weigh 🙂
