  1. I'm a big fan of extreme TWANG but you rarely hear it from a bass guitar...so this video caught my interest. At first I thought it might have been a baritone guitar in four string format or something...but I'm not sure. One thing I am sure of is it's certainly a mightily impressive sound. Can anyone tell me more about it? I'd like something like it (obviously not in double guitar format). Anyone got an instrument that sounds like this? Any tips or suggestions or modifications to regular basses come to mind..?
  2. Is there anywhere in London I could try this bass?
  3. I'm afraid I found it a bit of an unimaginative and obvious accompaniment to the music. It was a bad sign when the lamb actually lies down on Broadway when the lyric came up. Sorry, Clarky!
  4. Crikey, that beautiful. Oh god, I want one now.... 😕
  5. That JJ sound is really really great
  6. A great player. I know him best from his National Health and Collesseum recordings... which shows you how old I am...and how much older he is....
  7. From the Moving and Handling album available here: https://kevhopper.bandcamp.com/
  8. Featuring my fretless Everson bass...
  9. By the way, seven years later I have updated and re-recorded the track with REAL bass if anyone's interested... https://kevhopper.bandcamp.com/track/slowglow
  10. I did a Shadows cover once
  11. I had a bass with a tremelo system years ago. Although I like using wang bar on a Strat it was nothing like that. When it came to the bass it was odd...clunky and huge with a heavy slackening of the strings that felt unnatural. I wouldnt recommend it.
  12. Extraordinary work, Rob. Well done.
  13. ...and a bit more pithy https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://m.soundcloud.com/spoombung/mr-moffat&ved=2ahUKEwiYgsOCzZvjAhXaShUIHdh9CnIQjjgwAnoECAMQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2LLYS7YOyp9mTyVW12VJ9N
  14. Hear it here in a mellow setting
  15. I can imagine TOP without bass and I would assume it would work fine...as most music would without a bass player.
  16. link not working, Ewan...
  17. Mike Patton: a big Stump fan apparently.
  18. John Lennon, Kevin Coyne and Chris Squire.
  19. Interesting post. This is very familiar to me: I also have trouble sleeping after rehearsals and gigs. Must be my guilty conscience.
  20. PS. Trevor will know about the controls
  21. Cor! You've hit gold.
