I clicked on it, didn't know what Rumble was at the time. The other videos on that account seem to fit your description.

There's a very exciting Netflix drama in this!!!!

Well if you believe those who disagree are hate speechers...does everyone in your life agree..how sad..

...at which point I would smile sweetly, crank my Trace Elliot stack, and tell the sound engineer(?) that the bass needed to be heard front of house and I would happily turn down when he took my post-DI signal...

I'd never heard of pirate before reading this thread. It makes me glad to be in a band where the guitarist has a studio in his home. The only hazard I encounter is the possibility of tripping over Ralph.

Something about hitting a bum note...

Just had a noodle on one of these in GuitarGuitar. First 2 minutes of not quite fretting right on the fanned frets but grand after. Fit, finish and weight are really nice and I'm a big fan of the rotary controls. For someone lazy like me it makes it super easy to get a good range of useable tones. Action was potentially a little low for me but the neck was really playable and I was flying about it playing through a good few styles. Would definitely consider it if you want a modern P J that looks kind of Fender-y but not. I reckon if I was getting a Dingwall I'd still go D-Roc as I like the shape and they a stupidly good value second hand.

Good point..but i thought this was about bass playing...smile...have fun

Truth is often called hate to those who don't seek it.. Tough crowd, ok...now besides telling me yall wouldn't want to play it...question? Could yall if you wanted to...lol..I know I'm eccentric..lol I like fishing for men too..lol

I wouldn't have bothered trying to talk with Pirate, I'd have just called the fire service right away. They'd confirm the place was safe, or not. They would then contact Pirate.

Decent rehearsal on Sunday, and Shout is in the set list for our gig in Wakefield which is good. Still enjoying the practice studio in general but at one point there was an awful eggy smell that put us off for a few minutes, so next time I'll be booking a room away from the toilets (nobody in the band claimed responsibility, which they would have if it was one of them!). Looking forward to the next gig because it's been a few months since the last one.

I just keep finding myself with such poorly treated instruments - not that I'm the best person to be bringing them back to life, but hey I'm learning, and I can't make it any worse than this, right? So as the franken-reggae bass goes through multiple obsessive stages of paint before being finished off, this guy comes in. The plan is for a straight up punk P bass. Think single volume knob, bright colours. The body, I'm told, is a Greco from 70s/80s. This checks out, I have a few Greco basses around and it makes sense. It has the pancake body construction and weighs an insane amount. The pickup seems to be OK. I have a neck with a pointy headstock coming from Korea (an old Samick I believe, it should fit). First order of the build is to strip the finish, remove those broken screws, and fill that hack job cavity. I will update slowly as parts start to arrive, and as I work on the other project. This is how I received it (pickup also included) Stripped, screws pulled, and epoxy resin to fill the hole. Bridge as I was checking it lines up with original holes (of course it does). More coming!

I very much enjoy the original, but definitely prefer this cover by Yola.
