Do they just push on mick

What a great thing to do, good on you 👍

A bit of Alton Ellis this morning

Yeah I think the cs precision is a relist too

Yeah, I’d say so too, according to the seller it’s all original

Nice track from Gregory here ,from the sly n Robbie channel

i like the look of this and I think I’ve seen it before , does it all look legit https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Wal-mk1-1992-four-string-Wenge-facings-/393371260034?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286

That’s before my dreadlocks grew 😁

what would you class as a , professional or posh instrument

Cool summer Aswad tune

I didn’t know it was 2 jazz pups, I don’t do FB, thanks Andy 👍

A new one here from Glen browne, nice Bassline

There was a black bb714 for sale a while back that I really should have bought, I can’t remember where it was, I really liked the idea of that neck pickup, I thought it would be ideal for what I play

Yeah, he’s a very underrated singer who worked with all the top bands and producers In the 70s and 80s, Check out the album ,Gunshot , the first track I think heard from him was on rodigans reggae around 82, he was around the same time as Hugh mundell , I’m sure Anthony did a version .This is a great one

Thanks emg, great collection, really nice basses 👍

Santana covered Exodus

Apparently, manfred manns earth band covered Bob Marley’s Redemption song

There’s lots the other way round, but I’m struggling with rock bands covering reggae

Tort would look great on the white one, I think the black one on the other looks okay

Very nice 👍

What model is the white one Andy, that’s nice

Not sure you are wrong there, apparently chrissie wrote it , here’s what songfacts says This was written by Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders, as "like all the other London punks, I wanted to do reggae." It was included on The Pretenders 1980 self-titled debut album but when the singer heard Jones' version she conceded, "That's how it's supposed to be done." Jamaican musical legends Sly Dunbar & Robbie Shakespeare supplied the backing to this track.

I think grace Jones covered it , and didn’t Robbie Shakespeare play the Bassline
