My life underwent a similar upheaval a few years back. She bought me out of the house so I had a few grand to splurge in the Basschat market place and ever since I have been living the life of an itinerant musician. I'm pretty much broke by most people's standards but I wouldn't go back for any money. Hang in there mate, life can surprise you in a good way too

I owned it, but ended up selling it, because I'm a BassChatter... GR Bass AeroTech Full Carbon Cube 800 Combo coupled to a GR Bass AeroTech Full Carbon Cube 112+ cabinet. Super light and super powerful with excellent definition and almost neutral sounding.

We put domed lights on top of our cabs to stop people putting drinks down. Dave

A Tony Franklin like Precision Bass would be a better description. It has what looks like an ebony fingerboard with a brass nut on what also looks to be a 70's Fender P-Bass neck, with a Jazz Bass pickup under the bridge cover and the output jack located on the side as the hole is now certainly occupied by the tone control. If it's an original Fender 70's Precision Bass neck, the fingerboard has been changed as it was either rosewood or varnished maple.

Had that happen to our sound guy a while back and it killed the cab 😡 he built some pitched roof covers for them so it was impossible

The Plough

Was great watching you last Thursday. You sat in the pocket effortlessly. You made it seem super natural. The whole band did great is such a hot venue. I questioned my life choices with the clothes I decided to wear to the gig lol. Hope to see you catch the band again.

I was sent this bass via Whatsapp that was for sale at a local car boot sale this morning. If this is yours then please do let me know as I am curious! So the question is.....any ideas on what it would be? Apparently it was being described as a Jaco signature but, well, I always hand him down as a sunburst Jazz type....

Is that the bowling green @Norris?

You didn't look very hard.

My Glockenklang Soul 2x10" is old, but it has been the best combo ever. 38 kg is the bad side. Before that I had a Peavey DataBass, around the same wattage (450), but one 15" BW. A super combo would be 2x12", some 500 W - 1 kW / 8 ohm, two inputs, and under 25 kg. HPF. Built-in wheels.

Final gig of the weekend was a nice "acoustic" session this afternoon in the garden of another pub in Ashby. Not a huge crowd but still very enjoyable, and they were wearing more clothing this time 😂 I forgot to take any photos earlier so here's our guitarist I love playing the EUB but in the second set it turned a bit grey and windy, so we kept on playing - for nearly 2 hours in the end! Needless to say I was pretty glad when we finished the last number Sunglasses throughout and burgundy suede Vans

I recently bought a 70s Eros EB bass from Paul. He knew it was a very special instrument to me and one I'd love to own again and he kindly gave me first refusal. A true Basschat gentleman.

Bough Paul’s Danelectro longhorn bass. It was exactly as described. He was extremely helpful and didn’t even accept my offer for a deposit in order to hold the bass for me. Great guy, super easy transaction. Highly recommended.

What monitor do you mean? I am not sure I have ever pressed or noticed a utility icon
