Thread resurrection, my classic rock band have decided to do this, what a song and what a bass workout. I’m up to about 3mins at the moment. I’ve not found any of the individual parts that taxing, but holy memory capacity Batman, remembering them all is just crazy. I’m sincerely hoping that the next 6mins or so just repeat the first 3mins twice again however I’ve a feeling that just ain’t gonna be the case. If I had any doubts as to how good a bassist The Ox was this has removed the last of them.

Hi, I'm in the market for a maple jazz bass neck. Any ideas where to pick up one for roughly £150? Obviously eBay is an option and Northwest guitars sells them. Any ideas or recommendations?

UPDATE on my budget number 1 Squier Affinity P bass. Since taking ownership in autumn 2025 it’s had a few more tweaks. In addition to the Tonerider Classic P pickup and Fender Vintage 60s bridge I installed late last year, I’ve also sourced some identical machine heads from a 1997 Squier neck to replace two that were on their last legs. It’s also just had some proper metal knobs installed and a parchment which scratchplate, which takes me back to being a kid and marvelling at Francis Buchholz (RIP) from the Scorpions and his red P bass. Thumb rest on order to complete the faux 60s look. Been using it extensively for rehearsals and gigs and it’s playing in nicely to how I want it.

Bit late but saw the Illegal Eagles on Wednesday night at the Civic Theatre in Chelmsford. This is their 30 year anniversary tour although, a true Triggers broom, it is an entirely different band now. Certainly an entirely different band to the one I used to see when Ray Brown was singing. Anyhoo. They are nothing short of brilliant. Five in the band, five vocals (Including Blow Monkeys drummer Tony Kiley), four of whom are good enough to front any band, one of whom (bass player and apparent band leader Trevor Newnham) has one of the finest voices I have heard live. Harmonies are out of this world and three of them are talented multi-instrumentalists. They aren't scared to do deep cuts - starting the evening off with 'Midnight Flyer' and throw in some Joe Walsh and Don Henley solo stuff. Last year they played all of 'Desperado' including obscure songs like 'Bitter Creek'. Fabulous. I saw the Eagles proper on their 'History' tour, while everyone was still alive, and reckon this bunch can walk shoulder to shoulder with them. If you like the music of the Eagles, go seek them out - they tour constantly all over the country.

I can't see my Goliath Jr III cabs going anywhere - their sound is still so good. They had a good but busy life before they came to me but I'm at least ten years in with them now and have found little else that keeps up tonally. My modded Ashdown 2x10 is very good (fitted with Celestion Pulse - myself and Phil Starr had extensive communication over their suitability plus I took it upon myself to remove the resistor in HF circuit) and is now notably closer to the SWR cabs than the original spec. Proper job! 🥰

It frustrates the hell out of me, Brits using Imperial measurements. I am 74, I grew up with the Imperial system but when I started in Engineering in the late 60s, I had to change to the SI system. Imperial disappeared for the public 50 odd years ago. Get over it. You would not want to buy something fitted with UNC or UNF threads on the screws, why live your life in the past? Now I have to decide whether to take my 34" or 30" bass to rehearsal.🤣

The DM610 is a large bookshelf/standmount speaker from renowned hi-fi brand B&W, featuring a well-braced 30-litre sealed cabinet with 8-inch mid-bass driver. The larger driver and extra cabinet space create a much better low end range than from most similar speakers. This model allows for either bi-wiring or bi-amplification. These speakers present clean tight bass response, surprisingly clear mids for such a large driver and the pleasant highs that the well-designed B&W tweeter at that time was famous for. They can be driven quite loud, enough for the physical effect of the bass to be felt without audible distortion or a sense of sound compression. Both speakers are in Very Good condition, especially for their vintage. All-original, complete with full grilles (one of which has a small hole, shown in the final photo). Only £125. Collection from Bournemouth BH6 preferred. Here comes the science bit… Type: 2-way closed, shelf speaker Colour: Ash black veneer Dimensions: 490 x 236 x 303 mm (H x W x D) Weight: 7.8 kg Recommended amplifier power: 30-150 W Frequency response: 70 - 20,000 Hz (±2 dB) Crossover: 2500 Impedance: 4 Ohm -
Yes it has phantom on the XLR (mic) input and yes you can combine both channels (there’s an A + B switch on the side between the two jack inputs). I must admit I’ve never used that option as I’ve always used mine on doubling gigs with EUB and electric fretless, or more recently with upright but I only have a Realist Copperhead on my upright and no mic. They really are a great bit of kit. My only complaints are the post clip light is a bit sensitive, and the selector for tuner always on is inside the case requiring a screwdriver session to change to on mute only. Other than that, they are built like a tank and do exactly what they say on the tin.
