Ok i was just watching a youtube vid that blew me away...and wondered what my dream team of musicians would be...you got a max of 10 musicians Mine are Donny Hathaway - vocals Chaka Khan Anita Baker - Backing vocals Poogie Bell - Drums Max Beesley JR - Percussion George Benson - Lead Guitar Jean paul Bluey - Rythm Guitar Sharay Reed - Bass Stevie Wonder - Keys Incognito Horns - Brass. yes im going for a certain sound...world beating though.. i cant imagine what biblical music they would come out with???...or maybe there is too many divas/creative minds, for the pot

check out a Mike Lull p basses..there awsome

im a jazz bass man but ive got to admit playing someones stingray in a pub with a trace stack and it blew me away..so much punch and awsome tone....the SR5 i had is missed badly

[quote name='Stingray5' post='931494' date='Aug 20 2010, 11:25 PM']Er...B5, did you mean to put the Crown Heights link twice? If so, Vic Wooten must've been about 10 years old when he played for them! [/quote]Ha! what a dick...edit done..

[quote name='Stingray5' post='911188' date='Jul 31 2010, 01:08 PM']Continuing one of the best threads on Basschat, here's a funky groove for Saturday afternoon. Featuring M King on bass and the ridiculously tight Charlie Morgan on drums (...well, he never bought [i]me[/i] a drink, anyway!! ) I always liked how the chord sequence works in this one too. [b]Nik Kershaw - Easy[/b] [/quote] S5 for one..this is awsome i havent heard this for ages..Mark Kings playing is just spell bounding!!! .for two check Crown Heights Affair..

whats the neck on Stings P bass here?..i cant see him having a graphite neck myself? hes got other things to worry about.. by the way dont like this version...where is the simplicity that this track is all about..??? the horns ruin this track imo [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiG81XocjgM&feature=search"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiG81XocjgM...;feature=search[/url]

Anyone live near me who can have a look at my jazz bass wiring...im absolutely usless at wiring diagrams...ive opened the cavity and ive got a couple of wires loose from the pots...im not getting the tone i should do from it.....i would like maybe to put the bass in series...oh and for free as im jobless..

[quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' post='930320' date='Aug 19 2010, 09:30 PM']OK First and foremost I believe that Tribes Vibes & Scribes is their best album closely followed by 100 degrees and Rising and then Positivity. I have been listening to their latest album Transatantic RPM and that sounds pretty good too almost back to their best. In a similar vein Citrus Sun are good along with JTQ particularly the album "In The Hand of the Inevitable", Raw Stylus and some Galliano are along the same lines. It's all good music though - enjoy! [/quote]What GF said... also check out an album called Four Corners by "Inner Shade"..its one of Blueys side projects...awsome RHT playing on it

yeah for sure its natural to emulate your fav bassists...but i think its much more important to do your own thing...ive learnt loads of stuff and ideas from various bassists,songs etc....alot of stuff ive learnt also comes from listening to singers, horn players etc.. i have favorite bass players,but i dont want to sound like anyone but me...
