    I’m similar with James Jamerson’s bassline to Home Cookin’. I avoided it for years but have been going through the entire standing in the shadows book to improve my pick playing. It’s taking me a bit longer to learn home cookin’ than the other songs but I’m only 10bpm off nailing it!

    Janek G in particular often said when you gig you will perform better when you’re not thinking about what you’re playing/ going to play. When you have confidence in your band you think less, when you don’t you’re having to consciously listen while playing - especially improvising.

    “I’ve booked a spa trip” pulls up outside bass direct ”it’s leamington spa”

    Where does Martin find those woods! No other builder seems to do exotic like they do.

    Since the new site my GAS has gone right up. Luckily for me your stock seems to sell quickly. Unlucky for me you’re not too far 😬

    I’d say an end pin is under the ruling of a bass stand. Just checked my messages and last bass I bought was 2023! Unfortunately it’s not through lack of GAS though, so you must have a disease 😂

    Sometimes notes that “dont fit” with a key signature work really well, but a note played out of time never works.

    Saw Hans Zimmer in Manchester. Incredible band, three basses at once at times and at least two drummers, all in harmony. Didn’t like getting to co op live though, took an hour from Mancunian way to the car park, and the food and drink prices were extortion.

    I like the colour a lot. Hadn’t heard of this maker before but sounds like a good experience.

    No West Ham sticker? 😂

    Jesus. Who were the judges? He landed some licks but in general it was pretty sloppy. Meanwhile young bassists who can play (and unknown to most of us) are busy with real world gigs.

    I’ve watched a few videos when he has collaborated on SBL and he is nowhere near the calibre of Ian, Scott or their usual guest list. At least he can play but doesn’t put out anything I find interesting.

    Shite player that talks bollocks because he has nothing else to offer. But he understands YT, is accessible to many and has built a following to become flavour of the month. There’s far better content to spend your time watching.

    Do they sound much different? I’d expect a bit more warmth from the wood neck. Totally agree they look right though now, especially with the clear/ no PG.

    I joined in 2010 and it was already a thing then.

    That would be sacrilege, but then Rob T owns Jaco’s bass of doom and has played it at Metallica shows.

    Still in and an unexpected redundancy has made my completion even easier!

    I was with you until your Wetherspoons example. That foods not worthy of seagulls.

    Did you not see the infested P bass?
  22. Mrbigstuff
    Still not in the website, did it get snapped up?
  23. Mrbigstuff
    Could be anyone on the end of an account. If they set one up to wind people up they’re unlikely to be honest about who they are.

    Could you be a kid or maybe Leo Fender is bored in the afterlife

    All that’s left are to throw in some personal insults and get the thread locked!
