New Member from Bristol

Hi

My name is James Burgess and I'm a professional music teacher/musician from Bristol. I play guitar in a busy wedding band managed by a large agency, as well as bass guitar in some smaller acts. I'm here hoping to help people out however I can. I used to post here a few years ago under the name j249.

for Bass, I play a 1972 Fender Jazz bass into an EBS HD350 and a small lightweight EBS cab. Also have
1978 Jazz bass
Rickenbacker 4003
Various cheap parts basses

for Guitar, I mostly play a Gibson ES335 into a Fender Deluxe Reverb amp. Also play a '78 Fender Telecaster and just recently picked up a Squier Jazzmaster.

Pics to follow....

I'm also interested in fitness (running, cycling, dog walking etc).

Nice work Jay, and liking the website.

Hope that 78' hasn't broken your back yet :-)

Hi Lawrie.

Thanks. It doesn't make it out of the case much anymore due to the weight. The '72 is lovely though. Hope you're well.

[Jebo1]

Did you buy the 72 off me as well? I can't remember.

Anyway, great to hear you're still out there playing. Send me a link the next time you're out and about playing and I'll pop along and buy you a drink.

And if anyone needs an endorsement for Jay he's a lovely chap and a fantastic player too.

Thanks mate. Yes I did, it's a Sunburst, I'll add some photos when I get a chance. Unfortunately it's 60 gigs + per year of private weddings and parties but I'll keep that in mind!.

Haha, no worries. Any excuse for me to get out of the house for a drink nowadays.

Belated welcome!
