Poah, that is one amazing vest.

The settings on that Cali76 are interesting; can you elaborate a bit on that?

Here we go: With a bit of a squeeze and a stretch of the bag, both Mustangs fit.

Yep, Pino's bass is a 62. At least according to the Custom Shop.

Some absolutely lovely basses there. I really like that Maruszczyk Stenback-ish bass, the blue TRB is also very nice. Same goes for the Japanese Fenders. I consider myself lucky I'm on the other side of the Channel and have no bass budget atm, but otherwise...

I'll try to remember to make those tomorrow in daylight

Well, they fit. Just. It's a very very tight squeeze but it fits.

Well yes but also don't underestimate that Cali. It's the best compressor I've ever heard. It's always on. I use the Minnow mainly as an extra EQ when I bring my fretless along, or as a DI/EQ when the sound person asks for it.

I noticed I never took my pedal board to gigs anymore. If I do need extra effects, I always bring my Helix. So I downsized a lot in the last few days; sold my reverb and chorus, put my octaver and fuzz up for sale, and now this is left: The blank pedal is a custom built Tubescreamer copy, voiced for bass. And yes, I have straightened the position of the Cali

I bought this Ritter for an absolute bargain. Not a big fan of Ritters in General but this is just for one tour and I didn't want to spend Mono or Gator money for that. Will report back once its in

Well, after my 40K offer, an interesting little conversation happened: "Hi Hidde, I guess you accidentally overpriced. Best, [seller]" "Hi [seller], I guess you accidentally overpriced too. Best, Hidde" "Yeah might be Best, [seller]" And that was it. Bass is still for sale, price is the same. So if anyone wants an accidentally overpriced 1972 Jazz, go for it.

12K is ridiculous. For a 1972 you could get around 3K I'd say. So I offered 40K.

Currently for sale here in NL. 12K? Really?!

Slightly off topic: I saw Opeth live last week and they're really one of the greatest live groups I've ever seen. What a band. But that Miller sig the OP has is a beauty! I already saw it on the Bassbros IG feed and it's one of the better looking grains on those basses. And as somebody else already mentioned: no such thing as too many Jazzes.

Well, it is not. There are actually two bass players credited, Andrew Wells (who also co-wrote and produced the song) and Matt Kirkwood and I think it is the latter that you hear playing. He uses 5-string Jazzes, according to his Instagram page. EDIT: Just found an old IG story of Matt. It's his Marco bass.

That is probably as heavy as Hammond himself.

Was Jeff Jerry's brother?😁

Oh yeah definitely. There is a difference between "old" and "vintage". I have a Rokkoman 12-string acoustic from the 70's in my classroom that is very cool and sounds great, but is mainly "old".

That would mean that any bass from before 1995 is considered vintage and I don't think most Fender fans will agree with you on that But it's weird. When I started playing in 1999, pre-1980-ish was already considered vintage. 26 years later, it's still pre-1980. For me and most people I know anyway.

Does anyone know of double bags that fit 2 Mustangs? I'm going on a tour in April and I'd like to take both my Mustangs along.

I really really dig the Kithara Samson bass that Dave Landreth plays. Sounds great, too:

I would not. I only want that particular JV.

The Squier JV Precision I bought for €75, sold it for a lot more and have tried to buy back for a few years now. The current owner is the guy I sold it to. He knows I want it back, but refuses to sell it back to me (because he really likes the bass, not because he hates me...I hope).

Every since I bought my 1966 Jazz I've developed a love for the lollipop tuner. You know, the tuners Fender used from roughly 1966-1968. I'm currently at 4 bases with lollipops. When I had the De Gier built, I specifically asked voor lollipop Tuners. Sander doesn't (or didn't) like them, but I'm super happy he agreed. Lovely lollipops😍 I'm also considering swapping the tuners on 3 other basses for these.
