See how times, and Christmas traditions, have changed over the years. 50 years ago, an Orange amp in our stocking. Now, an Elf on the shelf.

Christmas presents....What did Santa bring you?
PaulThePlug replied to Mudpup's topic in General Discussion
Jack Daniels, Toblerone, Socks... It's almost like he has been watching me... Son got a Behringer Reverb Pedal. He has gone a bit Telecaster and Jeff Buckley of late. I'm sure the Muse Bass will return. -

I got a new wallet. Which will never have any money in it as long as I play bass. There. That’s bass related. -

There's a really interesting insight into the Nicky Chinn/Mike Chapman production line writing of all these Top 10 hits by Sweet, Mud, Suzi Quatro and Smokie. There's an interview with Andy Scott, where he says Tiger Feet was offered to The Sweet but they either turned it down or asked to take it later. Obviously, Chinnichap gave it to Mud. I believe it kept another Sweet single off #1.

For pure self indulgence I have quite fancied a 10 stringer when I was playing in a folk band, but now would have no musical opportunity to use one. Having looked at a few 8 stringers on line some have the octave strings above and some below the main strings and i wonder what is the benefit of each? My simplistic guess would be fingerstyle would be below and pick playing above.

Now just £310.00. This amazing emulation of the acoustic control corporation 360 preamplifier with variamp and built in fuzz is up for grabs. Hand made by the renowned JC Maillet and commissioned and imported by myself at great cost. I have used the 360+ for studio recordings, gigs, rehearsals and at home, it has never dissapointed. The preamp sounds fantastic and the fuzz section is the best I have used. I have owned this pedal for a good few years from new, as can be seen it's in pristine condition. Specially sourced UK power supply also included. Will happily run from other sources with the right leads (I used it with a trex chameleon). Fully detailed printed instruction manual also included. Only available as I have more preamplifiers than I can use. Try out/collection always welcome, or UK insured postage for £15.00

We collected it in November but today I'm finally allowed to play the Trace Elliot stack my partner bought me. AH300, 1x15 and 2x10. 😁 -
Jazz Bass control circuits (passive) - what works for you?
JapanAxe replied to JapanAxe's topic in Bass Guitars
That’s the thing, once you back off a stacked volume control or a VVT volume more than one notch out of 10 , I don’t hear any further change. EDIT: Hoping for more variation on a blend… -

My J type has Delano pickups, which are actually split coils in a single coil casing. These are wired to a VBT config. I can achieve 5 tonal settings from this, not including the tone control (.100uf) roll off: if 6 o’clock is typical 50:50 blend, 5 and 7 o’clock give either a more neck or bridge flavour of the mid position, whereas anything beyond those points is either all neck or bridge. -

This year, as with previous years, I received absolutely bugger all bass related. In fact, the only pressie for me at Ez Towers was a shared one, which was a picture of Wee Ezette, with Santa, in a snow storm frame, which I’m very happy with. -
Jazz Bass control circuits (passive) - what works for you?
JapanAxe replied to JapanAxe's topic in Bass Guitars
Well spotted! The bass came without the correct 6-32 intonation screw (actually a bolt). The original would be 1 7/16in (39mm) long. I sourced some 2in bolts and cut one a bit longer, as I suspected the original had been lost because it didn’t adequately engage with the bridge saddle. This topic is crying out for a PhD thesis! -

For best results, dredge your vintage tonewood from the bottom of a lake, same as they do for those highly expensive drum kits. As for that screw in the G string saddle, I’m selling them for £40,000 each. Right, who wants some Magic Beans then..? -

It will be harder for them to come back and pinch it nothing bass-related as no one here understands bass. Eldest D is pictured playing a @Prosebass 5 at about three years old and twanging a jap jazz bass at around eight months but that’s the closest I got -

I've never been asked to bring any kind of bass for a gig or dep. In actual fact i didn't even know what the P-bass sound was until I joined this forum and read so much praise for them and decided to listened to examples. I do have an active bass with two sets of P-style pickups and in recent years put on flats but i doubt it has the authentic tonality of a passive P bass. I've taken it on a few dep gigs and got close enough to the previous bass player's sound that they noticed. I personally don't think I 'need' that sound and It's never gonna be my first call bass sound but if that type of sound was needed, i'd bring it along and see what I could do with it. Sounds monster with rounds on tho.

Bought new, kept it in pedalboard since forever. Actually I’m not even removing it until it sells don’t have the original box though (I moved between places since buying). It has 3M Dual Lock Velcro underneath, and naturally is in full working order. Wasn’t stomped much - I was usually engaging it through paired DMC Micro. And on rare occasions it was - it has the button cap! Highly recommended. I can post through Royal Mail Tracking24 for 5 quid or we can arrange local pickup in London
