Very brief one tonight - working on a verse for the guitarists new tune - literally the second or third play through while drummer was out on a call. he’s got this lovely little chord sequence but we didn’t know where to take it - I said “I’m thinking something like this” - and sure enough, played a little thing which works perfectly. The Yamaha and Ashdown combo working well!

I’ve been really lucky with JMB, current singer was obtained through there 2 years ago - we had a decent band together but all wanted different things, he and I quit on the same day. Knowing I was busy with family (the biggest reason for me quitting), he’s spent the last year sorting a (quite frankly astonishing) guitarist and a really great drummer - he then said, “ready when you are”. And it’s coming together nicely. Sometimes you have to sift through the shite to get to the good bits.

First time I’ve rehearsed with a BB300 since about 1999 😂

Nice. Currently too skint.

Oh god...

@lee650has just bought a 1025x means I now need a 1024/2024

Should do - the pog and C9/b9 pedals do

Yeah - me too - in all honesty I’m playing better than ever thanks to the break.

Honestly - this should serve as an inspirational thread. I’m back playing 😉

I’d want to try one, that’s for sure. Not 100% I’d use it much at the moment. a couple of years ago, working in a covers band with two pop singers - it would’ve been a godsend.

Was just about to post the same.

The knobs are a different gold plating to the bridge...and the gold bridge is a different type of gold to the body. It’s like one of those tissue holders you see in taxis on holiday.

That control layout is criminal. The gold hardware on a gold bass and the headstock is godawful. the Richard Bona one is sort of ok - the More I look at it...but it misses the spot a bit (the post above about it being half curvy and half pointy...) they won’t sell many.

I enjoyed it on the whole. Good way to highlight what the bass has done for music. I suppose it was a potted history...not bad.

Really?

If I hadn’t just sniped another 1100s

I’d find an original for that

And you need a badass on it too, what is this - amateur hour? hopefully there are some cream Dimarzio’s under that cover - everyone knows they’re the best.

They look tarnished. Not even got a brass nut?! Garbage.

Looks broken. Give you a fiver
