Just wanted to share this band, im sure alot you guys/girls know them.. but for those who dont, this is a gem... a smokin groove with fantastic bass playing... hope you likey.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUxfIAa5Ve4&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJSn0B1h5lY&feature=related

totally awsome live band... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5A2dCFecRFQ

oh yes... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLI03JpvYsg&feature=player_embedded#!

why dont you just get some round core strings? very flexible

Ive had an evening in a pub full of people listening to these two bands through a friend whos a fan and a DJ.... im a long time fan of these underrated bands... ive always been a Chic fan... these guys are just as good if not better... the bass playing and rythm section is always spot on... im sure alot of you aware of these bands but for those who may not... this music needs ears... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0hXEn1gfhA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KeKzwTmaOE&feature=related

as we all know, there is no 'better'... but it seems to me you like the jazz and the p bass.. so why not do the PJ route.. either a jazz Reggie, or a PJ precision... the best precision ive ever played was either an MIJ Squire P, or a Pino custom shop... you got a great jazz bass, so a P seems logical..

im aware of the american traditional strat but not a jazz bass.. do you have a link dude?

so whats an American Traditional then? never heard of them... ive never seen a jazz bass with traditional written on the headstock... the one piece scratchplates are from the 80's also.. do you mean American Vintage? that bass is a USA standard jazz..

[quote name='wombatboter' timestamp='1331202979' post='1569220'] Perhaps not everyone's piece of cake but I consider this to be funky and groovy... Amazing what McCartney does on this track..a growly funky bass-sound and great fills. Those who ever doubt how great Paul plays,,, [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRCgueckAXE[/media] [/quote]loving that..

[quote name='Chris2112' timestamp='1331226270' post='1569874'] If you're doing gigs at a 'professional' level I don't think you should be drinking before or through the gig. I wouldn't turn up to work pissed, I don't see why anyone who cared about their musicianship would either. [/quote]i think Chris is spot on here... i would never record, do a gig, drinking....im not a pro, but the word professional has its responsibilities..... its always great to have fun after anyways....

nice jazzers.. is that a Sei PJ 5 isee.. what is the natural ash maple blocks jazz at the front.. just like mine... is it a 75?

one of the best... from the most underrated.... Shine on you Crazy diamond is some of the most amazing guitar playing ive ever heard.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVdJBNQMCMc

madness.. why why why..

love them very much... some parts of dark side you might call spiritual.. some parts of the wall are just the closest thing rock has come to classical.... they are/were a band all on there own.. once you hear there music you will never forget... true pioneers in the truest sense... oh and i just had this great poster framed...

wonderful in so many ways.. the bass playing, the vocals, backing. the production, the drumming.. the sax, ive looked up to music like this for a very long time.. and then there is the keys solo at the end.. long live this band... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnMF2224mNY
