Thanks for that one, I used to play that many years back , I must revisit it it’s a great Bassline, back in the Matumbi days , this one too

Thank you, Same for you too frank 👍

It’s a very good community in my opinion, I’ve met up with many people here, mainly when I’m parting with money for something 😁, and everyone of them have been great, I’ve a lot less on my ignore list than I used to and I think that’s because it’s so well moderated now (thanks mods 👍), I’m always chatting with someone by PM and I’ve received great advice and knowledge from many about things when I’ve asked, I’m not going anywhere so I’m afraid you’re stuck with me 😁

I’ve got fairly new TI’s on a precision, what difference would you say is between the new ones and the 15 year old ones

I dabble a bit with recording and quite surprised myself how well I managed it, I’ve got the new iPad Pro and was using GarageBand with an irig, but I upgraded to a focusrite solo which I found better quality, I tried other apps but GarageBand was easier for me to use ,and once I spent some time with it I soon had it working well

Where can you get this eucalyptus.. asking for a friend

Maybe try just changing the saddle screws first before changing the whole bridge, they might just be a bit loose

I hovered over will’s number quite a few times, was you the lucky buyer

For something different I’m gonna try to get this one down, this video by Bruno looks like a good place to start me going unless anyone has any other suggestions

Yeah I saw that this morning, I’m not surprised , wasn’t me 😁

I’ve been fortunate enough to get mostly what I like ,but I’d like to try some of the top end Fodera’s , just to see what they’re like, also a 1960 stack knob jazz

Oh my , Will has got a custom shop Pino Palladino Precision Bass Fiesta Red in, looks so nice but I’ve just bought another precision, I mustn’t look

Some nice tones here from Naoto who I follow, there’s a bit of slap in there, using fender flats which I didn’t get on with as they were a bit high tension for me

Not entirely sure but have you updated YT lately , might just need update

Heard this on my local radio station, great old tune from around 1980

I don’t see any cons myself, I don’t really like the feel of rounds and I’ve got 14 basses all with various flats, mainly jazzes and precision’s, I’d say depending on what tension and gauge you like you can’t go wrong with labella , both these are nice strings 760FL Deep Talkin’ Bass Flats – Light 43-104, 760FS Deep Talkin’ Bass Flats – Standard 45-105 TI’s are good too if your after a brighter tone

Thanks UD, enjoying your travels around the reggae world 👍

Johnny osbourne has still got it, new single, Thomas Cirade on bass

Following Vino 👍

Exactly, if it wasn’t for that 😁

Wow, can’t believe the price of this

Not me myke, although I wouldn’t mind it 👍

Bit of easy listening tonight with Morgan Heritage - down by the river

At one point I just went through lots of videos with him playing so I can’t really remember who some of the bands were, but John Mayer did come up, there’s a list here but it doesn’t say what albums Bass Player for John Mayer, Lana Del Rey, Jason Mraz, Lukas Graham, Lady A and many others.
