Skybone

Pride (In The Name of Love) - U2

Is the sound quality too bassy/boomy in other venues / rehearsal room / etc.? If the bass is too boomy, maybe look at your pickup height rather than pulling your rig apart. Drop the pickup height on the bass side, maybe raise it a little on the treble side.

Rickenbacker 4003.

I recall buying a Vintage RAT in the late 90's. IIRC, they discontinued it in mid 2000's in favour of the other flavour RAT's they were doing at the time. When I sold it, I recall breaking even even on it, but it was boxed and in good condition. Looking at the condition of the enclosure in the pic, it does look somewhat "roadworn".

Hungry Like the Wolf - Durran Durran

I remember going to see them on this tour too...

Again, whatever the maker of the bass recommends, however, if you ask for a de-tuner/extender, then they should take that into account when sourcing the tuners.

Communication Breakdown - Percy & Friends

The Fall of Because - Killing Joke

Must admit, always been drawn to twin pickup basses.

When I saw Tool the other week, I didn't realise how much melodic work Justin Chancellor did, as well as thumping out big bass lines. Got to love a bit of bass melodic counter-point to the guitar.

Paperback Writer - The Beatles

Crusher Destroyer - Mastodon

Muscle Bound - Spandau Ballet

Still loving the 4003.

Took my son to see Tool last week in Manchester. Brilliant.

Twenty First Century Schizoid Man - King Crimson Oops too late

Monsters in the Parasol - Queens of the Stone Age

Don't Believe A Word - Thin Lizzy

My daughter loves Eurovision, and really looking forward to it. Usually quite an entertaining spectacle until the voting.

Feel Good Hit of the Summer - QOTSA
