Dang I know that tune - Fairport?

Another forum I use which has the same software limits the number of lines and images in signatures and limits links to one. It's effective in stopping people using their signature for what should be in their profile.

If it has two jack sockets and 'minimum load 4 ohms' you can fit two 8 ohm cabs (the built in one is normally 8 ohms).

I have a problem with mine. It's stopping me from playing my other basses...

Err...

I worry my sig is over the top... I wouldn't blame anyone for hiding it. There are several people on this thread whose sigs I've hidden for being 'in my face'. You know who you are... 🤣

But you have the best sig on BC Ricky!

Thang Q. I knew I should have been able to place them.

At about 1:00? other bits less sure. Most of it definitely picked. I suspect some of the single is synth bass, it's too 'clean'.

Led me down a rabbit hole. This pre-Trevor Horn version is surely slapped at some parts...

Long version. Thanks for the reminder @hiram.k.hackenbacker

"White Collar ... well that was a white collar crime ... 'cos he got away with it."

I've got one of those from the same year (2001) or 2002. It's actually a damn fine bass IMHO.

On the plus side, by next spring I should be living half way between Midlands and SW Bass bashes. I will have to go to both. For goodness' sake liaise with Jamie so you don't both pick the same weekend!

All you have to do is shape the headstock - Yes I did mine paper template, fretsaw and patience, rasp then a good long session with a sanding block. I didn't dress my frets aside from light sanding of the corners with and dry to improve the feel. I did have to cut the nut deeper, I used a scalpel and scraped it, more controllable than files IMHO.

By a Harley Bento J-bass kit, finish the neck yourself and either put the rest in a bits box or sell it cheap.

Whilst not being a fan of @ClassicVibes overly confrontational style, he does have a point, there's little purpose in advertising gigs in the USA on here Err... I think that misses the point of this thread completely

"Hang on... I think I'm getting Radio Luxembourg..."

At least no dog-themed reheated jazz-funk.

Handy for muting the E-string but when playing with stretches/little finger the thumb goes round the back. Mostly when chugging along straight eights

I'm guesing that it is, literally, two basses joined together rather than a single piece body?

Always check CPC as well as Farnell - same group, but CPC is focused on smaller customers so their MOQ is often lower and their prices for small quantities are often better.

My bandmates always seem to be surprised I'm a bass player...

You really don't want to use your feet on that pink thing...
