  1. That’s defintely achievable on a jazz bass. My references are Sean Hurley/ James Jamerson/ rocco prestia which are a bit tougher to replicate on a Jazz.
  2. How do you define a P tone? A bit warmer and mid focused than typical jazz?
  3. Ah no I’ve only got one 😂
  4. More info about the new manufacturer in here:
  5. Are they consistent? Is that a new thing because they have had the opposite reputation in the past.
  6. If you ever want a vintage sound rather than buying a boutique instrument, these are available 😉
  7. My overwater cost only 10% more than the equivalent fender artist bass at the time, yet it was handmade in England and had a few little extras I could choose over the fender. In that scenario, with the money in my pocket, I would have been insane to pick the Fender.
  8. Moved to central London. But even then I only lasted a couple of years of trawling my amp on a little trolley before I gave up and bought a car again.
  9. My betting is there is some egg on face so had thought better of it.
  10. The video two weeks before: “Pro bass player has huge gear revelation”. Scott gives away boutique basses in charity giveaway. 2 weeks later, big shipment of boutique basses arrive at Chateau de Scott and your video drops.
  11. He enters his plea and the judge decides whether the case is heard at trial.
  12. Ah that would be Pino Palladino!
  13. If it was the Manchester to Shrewsbury train it’s a devil for being late or too few carriages to cope with demand. And they wonder why so many would rather drive!
  14. The providence isn’t worth much anyway. He probably didn’t know he owned half of his collection.
  15. Apparently the term comes from French, meaning “small shop”. In the UK a small company has less than 50 employees and less than £10 mil turnover.
  16. To concur with Misdee, I’d say an unusual design made in small numbers. Similar to the term used for hotels really. Fodera don’t make anywhere near the level of a mass produced manufacturer.
  17. Only 3 months of fraud? Surely they have a lot more evidence than that!
  18. Please expand? I was just going to post a topic to say I’ve never seen a better selection of boutique and vintage basses available in the UK. It’s incredible right now
  19. I think you’ve been mis-sold a jazz elite 😉
  20. Different basses hum worse than others. I had an 80’s Tokai which had it really bad even when going straight into a DI.
  21. Bad sound or playing?
  22. They don’t seem particularly special when they were new but I guess the characteristics of the nitro finish come about with age.
  23. Bass bros have a suhr jazz bass. Quite uncommon on these shores.
  24. Sorry, didn’t think I needed to specify. They can be professional teachers or whatever you want to call YouTubers, but in these video titles they’re labelled as professional musicians or bass players.
  25. Was going to reply to add to this the obvious reasons why these platforms are not being regulated as much as they should but think it’s going down the politics rabbit hole which will end up with the thread locked. Luckily we can still enjoy watching SBL invite other YouTubers onto their channel for challengers and have the cheek to call them professionals!
