  1. This new type of vaccine is very exciting and the ability to restructure a virus at the dna/rna level to help our bodies easily beat it is clearly where science is developing in the combat of new and unknown virus/pathogens. However for a lot of people these developments with this type of technology poses some/many questions and I can understand someone who doesn’t feel entirely comfortable by the speed at which this new type of vaccine can be brought to market or without what otherwise has become the norm of exhaustive clinical trials with a large data set and importantly the follow up data over many years to track side effects. Being ‘for’ a vaccine doesn’t make us gullible nor does being cautious about one a conspiracy theorist make! The difficulty many folks have is the inevitable involvement of Government, big pharma and how information is disseminated in what has become the fake news/agenda driven news cycle. We’re told to listen to the science but then we see the Government ignore the scientific data/advice and we have a little head scratch! We can all express our opinions on what we think and if we will or won’t take a vaccine but as ever cautious optimism isn’t a bad thing. I’d rather be a cautious optimist in this era than selling the Trumpian ‘we’re turning the corner’ lines which defy the real world stats.
  2. I’d mentioned this podcast on a recent for sale thread as this months featured artist’s custom bass was for sale and he discusses it on the episode. Made me think I should mention it to the wider BC community. Victor Broden hosts and interviews players, chats about their gear, inspirations and motivations. It features players he likes and earlier episodes saw a lot of the Nashville guys but he’s recently relocated to L.A. so features a wider pool of folk as well as his recent road trip where he’s grabbing interviews while on his travels. Victor wrote a long running bass colum in Premier Guitar and has been active on the Nashville scene for years. I like his laid back interview style and he’s a good old fashioned gear nerd so asks the questions we’d like to know answers to. Check him out! The Lowdown Society!
  3. I’d be up for trying this patch if you’re sharing it? Was messing around with some basic octave and fuzz yesterday to fill out some sections with the band and this might be a big way to do that!
  4. Adam Nitti is featured on The Lowdown Society’s podcast most recent episode. He talks about this bass and his ‘tone goals’!
  5. Good luck and God’s Speed 😀🤞🏽

  7. I’d wager everyone in the land want’s this vaccine to be efficacious, efficiently distributed and safely administered. Cautious optimism is neither half full nor half empty it is simply what it is. Let’s get people safely vaccinated, await for the numbers to tell us it is working and we can get back out to gigging when the time is right.
  8. I honestly feel like this is the perfect iteration of the p bass. I know folks talk about the Sringray being Leo’s evolution of a p bass but if one were to reimagine the p in a modern context it’d hard to overlook the Dingwall interpretation much like how they did with the TBird. The sound is bang on, the neck feels wonderful and the fanned fret/multi scale makes a lot of sense. I know some question the need on a 4 string but it sets it up perfectly for BEAD. It’s in my favour colour too 😬
  9. That Thundercat bass line could sell any bass. Such a great groove!
  10. The whole track borrows heavily from the Dua Lipa Future Nostalgia album sound. Similar sound to my ear.
  11. And if you can whip up the tabs for the track too while you’re at it 😂
  12. I believe @Al Krow had a few SA pedals and the hub and eventually bought midi cable too but I don’t think he ever hooked them up for any serious use citing PC editing as laborious or needing too much mental real estate... this off topic meander appears to be because @Al Krow feels that I might need my hand held in when considering the C4 and any additional costs that I might have. I appreciate that concern and while his aversion to pc editing might factor into his pedal choices I don’t have any issue as I spend most of my at home playing time via the laptop and frequently use UAD plug ins or Logic to create sounds and patches. I just hope @GisserDand @Quatschmacher are able to tell him how to work his new SY1000 when he gets it 😀
  13. Yeah this one. It just nails the p thing. Good playing helps of course
  14. One of my fav basses ever. The four string SuperP you have for sale really gets my juices going Cam. All that build quality and it being ideal for BEAD tuning too.
  15. It’s a great scheme. I went and got some 64 Ears moulds made a few years back and I’d rate these ones as better. If you can avail of the service then go get some it’s well worth it!
  16. So is that a core and an sy1000 on the horizon?
  17. There’s a boss and a c4 available locally so I’ll maybe give the boss a miss and check out the c4
  18. Anything on the boss SY-1 get close?
  19. I was meaning you’ll likely not be able to saunter into GuitarGuitar and try one.
  20. It’s good to see Fender do something a little different for them irrespective of how deserving folk think the player is. I’ve never heard of the guy but the bass would be fun to try out and I’m looking forward to a more comprehensive demo online soon!
