My sister and I went to see this guy at the Jazz Cafe in London.. Met him, and my sister was in love with him straight away, I could see it in her eyes..😆.Very polite gentleman he was.. His music/albums, are some of the greatest neo soul albums ever recorded. His voice and piano playing is way out there.

Purchased a TE80. Really cant fault it so far apart from its weight. Not a problem though as we bass players are made of stronger stuff. 😆. Really nice flame top, ash body. I dont know a huge amount about guitar pickups but they are Roswell single coils. No idea. Really nice satin neck. Im amazed you can get a guitar this well made for £170. Ive looked over the guitar and it is flawless. I wasnt aware this guitar was a homage to Prince,s Anderson Mad Cat.

Yep.

The first time I heard Snarky Puppy. Apart from Micheal's really tasteful amazing bass playing on this, Shaun Martins keys did it for me from 3.50. Astounding musicians all round.

Love me some Roy Clarke. His playing on this US TV show is just..

I wasn't aware of that records content and his history. I don't feel so entertained by him now..

This guy is fantastic imo.Always been my sisters favourite. Live @ Jamm Jam. The bass playing is just so good. Not sure who is playing.

His live piano and vocals on this... wow..

killer bass playing from Mars Jefferson.

This bassline from Ernie Mckone just gets insane near the end of this fab Incognito record.

Play some piano, a little harmonica, but I never really got into guitar. bought one of these. Ive heard great things. I do a lot of research etc before I buy any musical instrument. £99 for an ash bodied Tele.!!!!!?? It does make me wonder why I have a very expensive bass. Maybe in the future I might bypass a Fender Tele and get a Suhr. It is a Harley Benton TE30

His greatest trick was releasing a song without any bass and recording one of the greatest records. The record company thought it was a demo and demanded he record it again with bass. He told them to release it as, or he wouldn't record anything else for them.. he really had a great head on him.

This says it all.

Sorry to be that guy who corrects people. But Peter was the bassist for Nearly Dan. He was a cracking bass player. Very excited to buy that Roscoe from Bass Direct he was. I do miss his presence and northern charm when we met. He was a great friend and a lover of funk and groove. I really miss him.

Slap in context magic. imo.

I don't get the hate. Used in a measured musical way, it can be really great.

I was assuming the preamp on my jazz would conflict with the outboard preamp.? I presume the out board preamp bypasses the on board preamp.?

I have an a active Jazz bass with no passive switch..Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I presume I can't plug into an out board preamp like a Sadowsky etc.?
