  1. By keeping the headstock warm, the bass maintains perfect tuning Either that or you may want to disguise you play Fender
  2. It sounds pretty good. If they offered it in 3 TSB and Tort p/g, it’d sell well.
  3. That’s sold now but they have Stanley Clarke’s Flying V!
  4. I think this is the right idea. I don't think you would have played that way when you have the energy of live musicians and can feel the bass drum and snare as much as hear them. If it was me, I'd tighten up by learning the groove with a metronome and then once I had that down learn the arrangement, using fills to articulate certain moments. IMO the fills you used didn't add to the song or performance but that's often a preference thing.
  5. Alternatively, there should be a daily bulletin with Basschat’s drama of the day
  6. Again OBBM has gone out of his way in the past. Overwater are also one of the best teams in the business.
  7. Really cool to hear he’s a nice chap. His lines are up there with Jamerson, Rocco, Jaco and flea, in terms of influence on my bass journey. Not sure how well I could have kept my cool.
  8. They have it on the v10 deluxe instead https://sire-usa.com/products/sire-marcus-miller-v10-dx?variant=42380553486474
  9. Unlike Mr Presley I recommend plugging it into an amp before strolling through a busy bar/ club
  10. Yep, definitely not a revolution but minor upgrades
  11. Bass bros has a looker of a late 70s jazz. https://bassbros.co.uk/product/1976-fender-jazz-bass-2/
  12. Rather than two imitations, if I had that sort of money I’d be on the phone to Mr Baxter for the real deal.
  13. Not sure this makes any sense, but with pickguard looks like a bass guitar and without a pickguard looks like an electric bass.
  14. Wasn’t bad at all. Not many bids were placed so don’t think there were too many aware of it or it was a case of bad timing.
  15. Just missed out on a 93 Bt5 on eBay. Hopefully it went to a basschatter
  16. Same one is slightly cheaper on reverb but the guy thinks it’s made in US. Might be able to use old classifieds on here to convince them the price is wrong.
  17. It’ll do for the dog and trumpet
  18. If the PJB Big head is the same Sort of thing then it is fantastic.
  19. I think it’s gone up in line with the recent increase of Warwick’s Team built MIG series. I sold my Warwick Thumb NT 5 fretless for just £1k 10 years ago. Would love another one but couldn’t justify the prices now. There are sometimes decent ones just above £2k at the usual shops.
  20. How weird that the finish has come off so easily. I’m guessing it wasn’t green from factory? I’d be tempted to take it all off and you’d have a lovely natural F bass.
  21. I love that attention to detail. You see too many high end custom builds with very fancy tops and then just large lumps of plastic.
