Passive 100%. My Squier 40th Anniversary Precision sounds amazing every time 😁👍🏻

@BassAdder60 When you know, you know. Enjoy your ‘retirement’ 👍🏻

Stick with what makes you happy, personally I only play flats but that's what makes the world of bass playing interesting, we all love different things.

Referring back to a some previous posts about the church Tech Teams and sound engineers, I have to say that I can't fault my lot, they definitely know what they're doing and they always get a great sound. This came in very handy yesterday as I played acoustic and sang for the first time since I switched churches back in June (and I'm just getting over a snotty cold). I'm strictly rhythm and what I lack in finesse, I make up for in enthusiasm 😁 .

YAMAHA all day long for me, I recently picked up an APX600 for a little over £200.

That's one of my favourite albums of all time too, I love UFO and I love Phil Moggs voice. I'm embracing the album for what it is and I'm enjoying the different voices on the album, I never thought I'd hear Biff Byford singing UFO but now I have and I quote like it 😀.

Currently enjoying the f**k out of this 🙌🏻, I love UFO and I love Michael Schenker. Nice Guy Rich is happy 😃

@Jackroadkill I know exactly what you mean by it being fizzy, I still get moments where the nerves decide to randomly come alive for no reason and my fingers feel like I'm being electrocuted LOL. Hopefully you won't have any lasting nerve damage or numbness as that feels weird. I've accidently cut and burnt my fingers a few times over the years as I can't feel them and, cutting my fingernails is aways an odd experience. The worst part for me is that my hand always feels stiff, it feels like I'm wearing a rubber glove, over a rubber glove, over a rubber glove and then trying to move my hand normally.

@Jackroadkill I hope you're healing well. This thread proves that whilst we can throw money at different basses, amps, pickups, leads and strings etc, the most important thing we have is our hands. Back in 2010 I had an accident at work and my left hand went through a window. I completely severed the median nerve and completely severed both tendons, as a result I now have little to no feeling in my left thumb and the first two fingers on my left hand, I didn't play for over a year but now, I play in my church's worship team and I hardly notice the loss of feeling. Look after your hands.

That is one cool pic (pun unintended) 😁👍🏻

@ossyrocks It made me so happy to read your post, I’m also a very lucky husband, my wife Sue encourages my guitar playing 100% and I have never had to hide a single bass etc. We support each other totally and that’s what makes a great marriage.

@Supernaut I’m surprised you want to change them, I play a 40th Anniversary P-Bass and it’s the best sounding bass I’ve played. I have La Bella Deep Talkin’ Flats on mine and everybody comments on how great she sounds. I wouldn’t change mine, they’re staying 😁👍🏻
