Its new to me, and yes, someone took off the pickup cover (it is in the case) but obviously didn't think they still needed the screws!

Is it literally new, or new to you? Either way, how do those screws go missing? Did someone take off the pickup cover and forget to put them back? Actually, I’m not sure the 4003s has the cover? Anyway, apologies - none of these questions helps you in your quest for replacement screws - I’m just curious about how you ended up needing them…

My first bass guitar will be arriving in a few days time 🙂 so I'm looking for a teacher or other resources to get started. I'm mostly interested in jazz, funk, soul, blues etc I'm an experienced musician having played the trombone for many years (jazz, funk, soul reggae big band, classical), the double bass for the last two years (jazz, classical) and I'm a good reader with a pretty good understanding of chords and harmony. I just want to get started on the right foot and not waste time trying to figure things out by myself! Please hit me up with any recommendations! Cheers!

Hi all, I hope everyone’s well? I’m in need of some tips to fill up the attached image(s) of the setlist. What are some good songs that involve a decent bass melody for a 3 piece? Myself, guitarist/vocals & drummer. I love a bit of melody when it comes to the bass, handling the low end and also serving as a rhythm guitar when necessary to help out the guitarist, so I’m keen to know what songs you guys would recommend for a 3 piece that you’d like to hear a bass play in a pub setting? Majority of the time I use a pick (which is shamefully preferred) Thanks!

It wasn't funny the first time, God knows why you felt you had to post it twice.

nah i think of myself more as a

when i used it I would go aguilar tlc compressor and sansamp (BDDI the old one with no mids knob), and I had a xotic x-blend with a rusty box in its loop, and just kicked on the x-blend bypass sometimes to let the rusty box through a bit but the whole setup was a bit overkill for me

"Hey man! Great bass buddy! I'll just get you a lead and you can plug it in to this amp. We can do both for a one-off special deal. Are you trading in? Your bass is the wrong colour, weight, make, neck-length, string count, and they moved to the 'mark 3, ten minutes ago, so what you're looking for, isn't realistic, you know, with us having to pay the dreaded VATman, you know mate. What you're trading just doesn't move nowadays. We could have this sitting here for months, you know man. Have a play around and see what you think. I'll go and ask the manager what our best price is, but our Tam, the guitar-tech, has already found seven things wrong with your old bass. What's that? You bought it from us two months ago! Ah well, you see, that company is out of business now, so there's not much we can do. You'll be needing a case, strap and tuner with that. That bass really suits you man!"
