Hoping someone can help, I know exactly what I want but not sure what pedal will get me there, I am super fussy when it comes to overdrives I am after an overdrive pedal that doesn't cut lows (or has a bass eq to add them back in if it does) doesn't cut mids and I am not a fan of clean blend as clean blend always sounds like 2 signals to me I am considering the Mojomojo pedal as a possible candidate, any others I should consider Thank you

Cheapo Chickenbackers from China. No thank you.

Here’s a link to his two “Topics” books: https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=Topics+in+jazz+bass&i=stripbooks&crid=2ICN4CIZC6MKH&sprefix=topics+in+jazz+bass+%2Cstripbooks%2C113&ref=nb_sb_noss I’ve just started on the Harmony book, which I find interesting right from the start. I don’t want to race through the books, just get things embedded as I go. If enough people are interested - say four or more - we could create a post called STUDY GROUP: Topics in Jazz Harmony by Danny Ziemann and people can chip in with thoughts, ideas, experiences, maybe record sound files and/or videos, help each other out. It’s a popular thing to do on the jazz guitar group I frequent.

I’ve got my hands full with the classical stuff but I’d be interested in this. Can you link to the book (s) and let me know how you’d start such a group.

Hand Over Fist - Rush

Don’t forget the price includes a tasty Fender hard shell case - must be worth at least £200 or so - he said trying to talk himself into a Fiesta Red one 😈😬

Iron Fist - Motorhead

I'm seeing Fields in a couple of weeks for the first time and I was really excited, all of my mates said that they're bloody brilliant live and that Carl is a killer frontman.....I hope this doesn't shatter any of the illusion of excitement for me just yet!

I could, but I opted to take the easy option of spending £40 on a piece of bloody rubber and foam to avoid any DIY, may as well have made the thing myself if I'm cutting a wood blank to shape 😅 alas it isn't returnable now so one must make do.

The organising committee. Might be windy tonight.

So, I ended up attaching a small mixer to the front end of the AG03, so that I could use the the additional inputs on the mixer, and bypassing the faulty channel. Eventually I replaced the mixer and AG03 with a Behringer UMC1820, which gave more inputs and a neater profile on my desk. I had planned to sell the AG03 and tested it to make a note of which channels didn't work - and it was all working again! So, I likewise suspect that it was a software glitch.

Ooh!

Crispy Fried Air is based around a simple | Am | / | G | / | F | G | C | / | chord sequence and features Drums from Logic's Scientific Method+ set, My Bitza Precision using Logic's SVT emulation, Logic's B3 organ, and Logic's Studio Grand Piano. There was originally also a guitar track, however it cluttered up the mix so I took it out.

I am sure others would speak either more authoritative voices but I don’t think wadding will help with low resonances.

In The Grip of a Tyre Fitters Hand - Budgie

Cut a bit of wood to sit on the pad, then the cab feet won’t warp the pad. Sorted!

Get a Grip on Yourself - The Stranglers

Took me about five minutes to scroll this single post. 😂

I have the same two books as you, and the Low Down 1 book. And I really haven't given them enough time - but some of the early exercises from Low Down were great. Over the lockdowns I did sit in on a few Zoom calls that Danny hosted, learning a solo by ear and a few other things. Great educator and communicator for sure.

I've seen some videos of the cello suite 1, prelude on 4 string basses. Beautiful.
