  2. AndyTravis

    It means “personal Message” - there should be an inbox message for you 👍🏼

    I’ve posted an ad looking for a later 18v Mexican made version...I’ve bought 2 Japan ones this week...instead of waiting 😉
  6. AndyTravis
    Haha. I’ve bought 2 in a week - think it’s time @bassfan got one
  7. AndyTravis
    That looks mean as anything!

    Noted - will be revisiting this idea - and will compress more. I’ve not set the bass up yet - The pickups are seated more towards the treble strings...it arrived yesterday, I have bigger plans for it as it’s a bit ratty. That’s a whole other thread for another day.

    @dmccombe7 it was - I go through phases where I can’t find the time. It’s getting easier as the kids are more independent.

    Taken on board - think I should’ve repeated the first phrase of the “lead” part rather than trying to develop it in the same register as the slap riff. Again, this was purely an exercise in showing @bassfan that it sounded like a Marcus Miller. Annoyingly - the band love it... “we could use that” And I have sent 3 lovely ideas this week met with “meh”.
  11. AndyTravis
    Well. Yeah. Marcus Miller (Genuine Draft)
  12. AndyTravis
    Just put this in the “I hate slap” thread hahah. I blame Pinot Grigio - done at about 11.30 last night against all better judgement
  13. AndyTravis
    I’ve never been called tasteful before. Thanks 😂

    So last night...I was talking To @bassfan and we discussed if the Fender Marcus Miller sounded good with the stock Preamp and Pickups... I’m going to get shot for this - I made a recording of slap. I’m also trying to do a lockdown “Happy Birthday” message montage video (for my lad) using my phone - so while messing about with what’s what on iMovie...I did this. I’ve put my flame retardant suit on... And no, I know I’m really not in the same league as MM - a very vague impersonation.

    I don’t think it’s either. Nor worth more than £15...

    You’re welcome, takes a bit of trial and error with the sonic port - I have one which is so old and battered. The Apogee has a gain/volume in line so you can gauge it better. But - once you get the hang of it all, great fun to be had. Particularly with Garage Band.

    Bought This for my 70’s P. That’s now gone. Wanted to keep it for a future project...but something has landed in my lap and I want a refin done. I bought this from a lovely gent on here - he bought a 1966 precision with this on. He stands by the fact it’s a 1966 guard. It has an extra pot hole in it as the 66 was covered to P/J At some point in its life before the chap bought it. I had a feeling it could be a Fullerton 1980’s piece from the hallowed first AVRI run - but I have seen 60’s tort like this. It’s old looking, very 3D and has the wide bevel - look at Spitfire pickguards at about £250 before shipping...and Bravewood do this wide bevel - but only for their builds (and use a darker more modern tort) I bought it as a nice old tort guard - it’s between 38 and 54 years old. No warping. A little divot near the pickup position. £250 - offers invited - plus postage (it’s between two bits of ply) in the UK or collect in Manchester (M27 Postcode)

    Bought This for my 70’s P. That’s gone. Wanted to keep it for a future project...but something has landed in my lap and I want a refin done. Relic dark brown tort - looks very similar to USA standard type tort - not the nasty cheap “pizza Pavement” you get off eBay. £35 posted in the UK or collect in Manchester (M27 Postcode)

    What I like (love) about MK is the level of skill in other areas which Are completely ignored. And then he throws a filing cabinet down the stairs and makes me feel 12 again - Giddy, silly and excited to play bass. And then people slag him off and I chuckle along...all the meantime wanting to engage in a futile row ending in “yeah, but you’re a numpty so ner!”

    I’ve met WP - really lovely bloke. He’s done really well out of it all - and in Poland seems to do some really lovely soul/funk shows... He does love to knock a good shed together though 😂
  22. AndyTravis
    It’s alright, it’s been denounced by the band as just “alright”. Better than yesterday’s idea I sent them 1 met with “I don’t get it”.
  23. AndyTravis
    I’ve just recorded a quick idea. I’ve slapped on it. I’m going to say 3 Hail Mary’s... should put things right.
  24. AndyTravis
    @Saimonbass really loved that album when I was about 16/17. That brought back some memories!
  25. AndyTravis
    Second time dealing with Mark - he collected a fender from me today. As ever, a lovely deal - great bloke. Enjoy x
