Glad I mamaged to help some people dispose of cash!

Not sure if this is in right section! Behringer Model D is on offer at many retailers at the moment, somebody just pointed it out to me they are £166 which is less than some are going second hand just google it I bought one

I’m listening to many bands that are linked to the genre ‘psychedelic soul’ It’s something bands from as far back as the 70’s have been associated with, such as Funkadelic and early Temptations With bands such as the monophonics, Black Pumas and Orgone, to me they are very much ‘Acid Jazz’ but I always take Acid jazz as a very British thing so it’s not a label (if that’s the right word) bands outside of the uk use very much

Great version of a classic GSH track by Mother Earth

I saw these guys at Blues kitchen earlier this year, great night

The acid jazz scene, as a label and a 'genre' was good to be around at the time, still is A few bands seemed to merge out of Brit funk and other places, but some great bands emerged, many of which I still play regular today also use when I DJ I remember buying the first Jamiroquai releases on AJ, with Andrew Levy (?) on bass, before they went to Sony Saw JTQ many times, with @gaz66 on bass, great live band, and more recently with Andrew Mckinney. Just picked up A Few useful Tips about Living Underground on vinyl for a vinyl only night I do, probably my favorite JTQ album. Need Sound Stylistics vinyl now 🙂 Mother Earth were one of my favorite bands at the time, Neil Corcoran nailed some great lines, saw them with Australian band Skunk Hour in MAnchester Saw a lot of bands around that time, I also remember BNH supporting simply red somewhere, they were better than SR for me And then there's Galliano! And they are back at it and i have tickets for Manchester next month, not bought the album yet, waiting for the show, they do have Ernie Mckone on bass, great player I just remembered Mr Exe, Paul Powell, Million Smiles, some nice playing on that by Mr Powell, rumours of him playing on a Jamir' track as well

It’s been a while

No video link for this one, find it on your favourite streaming thing! I just bought the vinyl for £18! RESULT! Spirit of Atlanta - Burning of Atlanta

Galliano - November Blues Kitchen. Manchester

Be good to see a metro express version of the UV70! or do they make one, maybe I missed it!

Recently bought a Fender AVRI ‘75 jazz, long drive for it, played ok, needed some adjustment to suit me, deal done The neck had too much relief in it, but truss rod was really tight. Only a few weeks earlier I had read in this group about somebody having the same problem, with the same bass they had just recently bought A quick search shows this to be a fairly common issue with a well known fix involving washers So I took the neck into work, it helps that I run two engineering workshops, one being a machine shop Thread size is 10 unf, so got a bush machined with internal diameter to fit that size thread and outer diameter same as ‘the bullet’ Had a couple made in stainless steel, 3mm and 4.5mm long Back clamped the neck slightly, fitted bush and bullet onto truss rod with a small blob of clear grease, tightened up slightly and left over night The desired effect was achieved, stringing with 40-100, put some relief back in the neck, leaving it exactly where I would have liked it! Opening up an M4 washer is what people normally do, but when you can do a proper job, it’s worth the effort Should of took some photos I know! Tony

I’ve got a Sei jazz and I’m in Manchester, but I guess you are looking for one of their more unique designs?

Bridge is staying! I know the original is correct for year but the badass is a good change in this bass and something I’ve done in the past
