Reggaebass

Welcome Ingo

Looks like the E tuner has been been changed too, and the control plate doesn’t look that old

Yeah definitely, I too like the deep tort original pickguards

Great colour, really nice bass

A 73 jazz has come up on reverb, it doesn’t look too bad , it’s had a new pickguard and brass nut fitted which looks out of line on my phone https://reverb.com/uk/item/73413676-1973-fender-jazz-bass-sunburst-fender-hard-shell-case

The whole album is one of my favourites, along with Kaya and Uprising, I bought them all when they came out and I’ve still got them

If we’re talking reggae basses, this is one I’d happily play

Really loving the this, it’s the B side I’m looking for which is the instrumental and called Rock dem Riddim, but after a lot of searching it doesn’t seem to be available on digital only on vinyl

Welcome Dallas

I’ve got everything I want really, but it doesn’t stop me looking 😁, got some gas at the moment for a 65 P

They are well worth it Geek, i can definitely recommend getting one

Lloyd Brevett the bassist, he was so good , good luck with your new band

I’m learning this at the moment, it’s a pretty tricky one because as usual Robbie changes things around throughout, that’s the challenge

I was trying to think back and I had a compilation cassette that had Axel F Everybody wants to rule the world and 19 by Paul hardcastle , this was the Top 40 best-selling songs of 1985, a few good ones in there

I was well into Gregory isaacs Night Nurse then and was working in central London , walkman was on every single day , I had the one with the bass slider on the front, I literally wore a few cassettes out then

Yeah he’s a great player and he’s got some nice basses, the 2 I like is the Left 1975 Right 1960

I listened to an album today that I wasn’t familiar with, it’s by the Mighty Travellers and called Black Black Minds , it was out around 1977 and when I looked deeper it was sly and Robbie backing some of the songs , this was around the time of the Aggrovators and this one is backed by The High Times Band apparently , and Chris Meredith on bass I believe

You did great there Dave, I had the notes down once but fell to pieces with it up to speed

Your cover of rhythm stick is so good, I’ve attempted that many times but failed 😁

For me it’s Earl Falconer, he’s a great bass player but certainty since UB40 parted ways they are dreadful, I’ve seen them many times and been backstage ,Signing Off is a great album and their best work ever

Nice looking, I don’t think it will be there long
