    I was in a band with a guy like that, middle if gig ‘Slap that bass Mr Bassman’. He got a look of complete indifference as I continued to play pizz as I had the whole gig. I didn’t offer my services again. All joking aside that, you’re not wrong mentioning risk of injury in picking up a new technique, anything from blisters to tendinitis, quite minor unless you’re an upright player 👍

    Without wishing to offend anyone, here's my advice re Rockabilly Slap Just don't, or at least, if you do, 20 seconds max per set

    Now you've done it @Lozz196, give it a month or so and there'll be hi-mass plectrums on Thomann at £49 each

    That is a far more common scenario than most of us would like to admit, and it's not just hi-mass bridges 👍

    To return the favour, I enjoyed this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Not-Abba-Real-Story-1970s/dp/0007146396

    Thank you Jack, just bought it 🙏
  7. Beedster
    Thank you 🙏
  8. Beedster
    Still blown away by how beautiful those two are 👍

    Need to free up some space so £150 collected or £175 posted. Shame to be having to let it go so cheap but too many boxes and too little square footage

    That’s an odd reply given the seller has stated very clearly that he’s not going to post it….?

    Frankly @Linus27 I’d simply buy a replacement fretted neck and put it on that bass for however long is necessary. It’s a crap time to be selling a bass and you may regret letting that beauty go 👍
  12. Beedster
    Have to agree, even if it was put together by Roger Sadowsky it’s still a bitsa

    Can't win can we mate 🤔

    DB people live at a slower pace than electric bass people, be patient Young Jedi 👍
  15. Beedster
    Fair point
  16. Beedster
    I'm guessing that some if it is room acoustics, sound near the stage - backline and monitors - could be very different to that elsewhere?
  17. Beedster
    Mmm, I suspect it's more than luck

    I suspect the OP would prefer you said it's all in the bass mate But wow, that is such an iconic instrument. There's been a lot of talk round these parts about the next big wave of collectable vintage, and I suspect that these late 70's black/black/maple models are going to rocket in the same way as the early 70's 3TSB/tort.rosewood models have (amazing the difference in price represented by 3-4 years in some cases, and it's as often assumed purely a quality issue, I've played some utter dogs from the early 70's). If you can afford to keep it @DaveSetchfield, keep it mate, going on that video, you and it get on quite well 👍

    ….or half step 🤔
  20. Beedster
    Not so bad at all 👍
  21. Beedster
    Which probably means it's got better QC than the US models..... That really is a fine looking instrument 👍

    ......and I can here my dear old Dad saying 'But this is just noise' during the synth solo as he skulked off to listen to a Lonnie Donegan LP
  23. Beedster
    Glorious isn't it 👍
  24. Beedster
    Console and PT is actually a PITA for me also. You know, I’m gonna give Luna another go 👍
  25. Beedster
    That is an upside of having both, when I'm not using an Apollo or Satellite I tend to run into processing problems very quickly
