And as if by magic...

Ticket To Ride - The Beatles

I have used spiros for years and like them. Mediums are too hard to play but the weich 4/4 strings got to be weak sounding on my bass. The Animas are like a different beast. Don’t seem to compare well to anything. I am trying and liking a mixed set Evah EA P and Evah slaps DG

DO NOT trust the image/statement of "Free returns for poor quality items" Ali CS is total S**T, they do not understand basic English and do not even understand their own returns/refunds policy.... https://www.trustpilot.com/reviews/6826228a820a6532874c4ed0 If you are going to chance a higher price item then make sure paypal have your back (also a word of warning on Paypal CC payments...they only offer 6 months cover if you use a CC to make payment via PP, not the full 12 months that your CC provider has to offer, only PP balance payments are given full cover by paypal money back)

Welcome Nathan

Thanks all for the advice. I’ll keep you updated.

Welcome Mr.

Ridin' on the L & N I like the Nine Below Zero version, live at the Marquee

Another option is to get some software which splits stems (Logic Pro is perfect, albeit a little bit costly. There also is some free software). It might be considered cheating by some purists, but why not if it does the trick. Sometimes, it’s quite helpful to be able to listen to a bass line separately.

I'd love an 8 string version, but even it i could afford one I don't have a musical opportunity to use it. I hope you manage to find one.👍🏾

Party's over, Dave. Back to work! The complete Jaco Pastorius part to the tune 'Young And Fine' from the 1978 Weather Report album, 'Mr. Gone'. There are a couple of 'Jaco' moments that I have had to approximate. To paraphrase the legendary U.S. Defense Secretary, Albert Nimziki. 'it may not be entirely accurate'. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/young-and-fine-weather-report/

I have an Antiquity 335 which is very good. Not a Chibson but similar on the price. The Firefly 335 gets great reviews too.

Maybe we need a beginners corner? where newbies can post newbie questions and not feel embarassed? Maybe find the answer is already there? i’d start with bass covers on YouTube if it were me.

I had that one — it might even be in my 7" singles box in the loft. I can't remember which periodical it was attached to though.

Train Kept a Rollin' - lots... I had an old 'flexi disc' of Motorhead playing it...
