Well if you want a J bass……….keep checking in as I have a piece of walnut and some elm with possibly a curly spalted sycamore drop top earmarked for some Js.

Jim Marshall did use some of the Fender circuits at the start, Fender's were based on the RCA sample circuits and the later Marshall's took their power amp designs from the Mullard Audio books.

A two piece Swamp Ash body from a really nice straight grain length. This is one of two I shaped a while back but don’t think I’ll get around to working on both for a while. Another fretted bass I’ve made from the same wood stock sounds really good and sustains very well. £75 plus U.K. post The pictures also show the weight/dimensions and a mock up of a neck (not mine!) to give some representation of a final look.

Thanks! And same, first became aware of the Pill in early 2020 but just wasn't able to get a preorder in until this batch First impressions are that it's very cool, especially with long drawn out synths/pads etc for groove based ducking. Nice with reverb for volume swell type effects too, but you have to nail your timing so the note doesn't stick out before/after the ducking

Hi Hello from Glossop and the High Peaks. Absolute beginner in my mid fifties. Wondering how many minutes a day I should be practising and how long it might take me to get some proficiency. My left fingers feel like sausages but been waiting a while to start playing. Just completed a Masters so now I have time to devote to this odyssey. Currently trying to play a Yamaha RBX 270, when in the right hands, plays beautifully.

I spent a week practicing ace of spades to get it up to speed for a low-key birthday bash, finally got it up to tempo and solid. Started playing and all was good, felt great, everyone kicked in and I realised I was in the wrong key… I'd been practicing it in EADG but decided to tune down to Eb as it felt better to play but totally reverted to playing it half a step down. Everyone was really drunk apart from me thankfully so don't think anyone noticed 🤣

I was depping last weekend. Played a very basic tune with bass coming in on F. I came in on C and played the riff in C. Embarassing. Especially as i think it was because I've been playing 4 string a lot recently and going back to my 5 string i simply got the string wrong. Such a basic and amateur mistake to make.

@Steve Browning That sounds like a good solution that will have the most positive effect on everyone concerned. It's tricky breaking up a band but it sounds like you found the right way to go about it.

Was in a band a few years ago. It became apparent that our set was beyond the vocal ability of the singer. After a tortures gig in which he murdered a few rock classics I sent an email to the band suggesting that it may be time to revamp the set and get some rehearsal time booked. Never mentioned the duff singing at all. In all fairness he was ok on about a third of the set. I got a message back suggesting that the band had played that set for years and were in no hurry to ditch anything. Also I was told don't reinvent the wheel and if I wasn't happy,I knew where the door was.... I sent one word back....SLAM!

As I have no box it`s collection from Paisley or meet up. Here is a Sire Marcus Miller Musicman Stingray style bass for sale only. In exc condition it features a Sire Heritage 3 eq with a mid frequency control as well as bass, treble and mid control, it also has a passive option, tone control, 18 volt pre and blend control. MM style humbucking and J style pickups, through body stringing bridge, roasted maple neck with rolled fingerboard edges, ash body so it weighs 5 kg or 11 lbs. A very versatile bass especially for the price, it cost me £565 a few months back. Collection from Paisley only where you can try it out or meet up within reason.
