Reggaebass

Thanks msb, I’ve seen a few pictures of your setup and it looks wonderful, I will get one eventually, mainly for home use

Looks good, I saw it on gumtree too

I was going through some early Ernest Wilson and really like this track, backed by the revolutionaries And just when I thought it couldn’t get any better along came the Michael rose version and Joseph Cotton with the same riddim

Absolutely, I always take my old ones off if ever I sell a bass

They sound like labella 760FS , nice

Which flats are they ead

11 year old flats are perfect for me, just breaking in nicely

Jacob Miller from around 1980 great tune And another riddim

Raging Fyah today

My rm500 never sounded good through headphones, quite a lot of interference, I use the NUX pro for headphones now

I can’t help myself looking at the Jule Monique preamp, lovely thing

Look forward to seeing what you got 👍, I’ve been browsing early 70s jazz’s again lately myself but not many around with the maple and black blocks

Looks like there’s a few going up for sale at the saleroom soon, haven’t had a proper look yet though

Oh wow, hope all is ok Brian

Yeah I saw that, it looks good and I don’t think the pickguard looks too bad either, reasonably priced as well

Piers, Just remembered there’s @Ricky 4000 fine thread here

Hi Piers, for me and pretty much in general the bass is the key and upfront instrument together with the drums (check out sly and Robbie), I can recommend having a look at Don Chandler’s videos if you haven’t seen them , he’s played with many of the top reggae artists over the years and gives some very good advice for all levels of players, he breaks down some nice basslines too, he’s the first person I contact when I need to know something, you can also download the backing tracks and tab sometimes if you look in the descriptions, I’ll put a video up to show you his channel

I saw it not long after it came out and to be honest I wasn’t expecting much, but I was quite surprised how good it was, I already knew quite a lot about him but the attention to detail of the storyline was really good, even down to Aston Barrett’s jazz bass, I’d definitely watch it again

Can’t say I know that much about him, the video above looks ok to me and I like Ian Allison , Charles seems a nice guy and a good player, I don’t really watch the so called showboating stuff, good luck to him if he’s making a living out of playing bass

One of my all time favourite tunes, I remember when it came out , great one

Hi Jotto, i can’t say I do, but this track I kinda recognise, not sure where from

I had these TM 115’s deep , they really are a good cab, very nice of you to offer this grat, good luck

Thanks for that info fretmeister, I didn’t know all that, pretty naughty really

same here I’m not able to to make that one either , great line up and Channel One Sound System , that will be a great event
