It's my old '78 p bass which was used in the statue with Phil - the work was done in Belfast at the Guitar Emporium to make a mock up of his bass before bronzing!

This is round the corner from me but im on night shift

I read somewhere a good tip is to bring mouthwash and unscrew the head off the mic and give it a rinse with the mouthwash, dry off and replace. Pretty cheap option in relative terms and also use the mouth wash pre/post gig to ward off/kill germs from the mic. If you can't verify the mic is 'clean' at least you can protect yourself!

I see it like this. If I were given a Mont Blanc fountain pen and a Bic Biro I'd still have the same crappy handwriting irrespective of which one I used. The colour and style of writing would be similar but you'd not really know one was written with a pen costing 60p and the other a £600. If you have nice handwriting it'll show through and likewise for a bass. You're gonna sound like you no matter what you play through - sure some basses can get clanky or rootsy but you're always gonna gravitate to your sound regardless. I know a new bass will offer some alternative home options but I know for me I dig the passive 'Fender' sounds but a little modern scoop never hurt anyone. Still can't plAt for toffee though........and my writing is awful too

Ahh dude my old bass had reverse tuners so when going into a dropped d number I got completely lost as I'd naturally went to turn the tuning peg the way I was used to and couldn't figure out where the string was tuned -stumbled through on the d string once I got my bearings back. I felt like a complete muppet "Look at yer man can't even tune his bass" Otherwise not a bad gig!

a break the rules bump as this is on really soon - Just drop me a pm and your name will be on the list

My old p bass was mocked up to look like Phil's 70's P by a shop in Belfast, was then cast in bronze, and proudly forms part of the statue in Dublin. No sh*t!

We're playing a free show tonight in Broadcast as part of a showcase event. If you fancy it c'mon down but I'll need a wee PM via basschat to get your name down on the door. I'm confident they'll let people just dander on in but to be safe PM me if you can make it and we'll be SURE you get in. I think there are 5 acts in total so good value as it's free. Oh yeah and IT"S FREE!!!!!!! Cheers!

Good luch with the show
