I blame Happy Jack for this.
Just bagged a Wattplower II. Obligatory sofa pic. It's now wearing La Bella Mustang Flats and sounding huge. 7lb 9oz and effortless to play. Well chuffed.
All the first album and half of the second
They didn’t go over the falling out. Just motored through the set. Not a lot of banter. Very good natured gig. Loved it
After years of big 1.0mm Clayton Triangles I’ve switched to green Dunlop 0.88 standard jobbies. Can’t say my playing has improved but they feel more comfortable. I don’t like finger style playing. Feels weird. So the right pick is important.

My cousin Gary taught me the rudiments of playing on his 40/40 in 1978.
He also had the equivalent 30/30 guitar he used in his pub band. Both were in natural finish.
I’ve always had a soft spot for Haymans and Shergolds. Bought a black Marathon in ‘79 as my first ‘proper’ bass.
As a spotty punk Herbert in the late 70s I like everyone else wanted a Precision.
A fairly low output pickup, fresh Rotosound cheese graters, a big triangular pick and a trebly clapped out amp on the edge.
That should do it.
