What are you listening to right now?
Jackroadkill replied to Sarah5string's topic in General Discussion
I remembered a band who I loved as a young adult and had almost forgotten about, so I'm currently listening to the last album of theirs that I bought. I was a big fan of their earlier, more doom-laden stuff, and I struggled to enjoy this album as much as their earlier records, but listening to it again as a "grown up" I have to say this is superb. -

Fender Jazz bass 1969 - burgundy mist https://reverb.com/item/94457176?utm_source=android-app&utm_medium=android-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=94457176 What a poor advertisement. It's priced on the high side, probably because presumably it would have been a custom color at one point. But; custom color would have a white pickguard (and matching headstock) as far as I know!? And even then; it's a refin. The lack of usable pictures is surprising. At this price point, you'd expect some effort.. On the side; I don't understand the premium price dealers ask for an instrument that once had a rare custom finish but has refinished since.

Absolutely stunning mate! The wait is agony isn't it 🥺

Lovely to see another ACG Sona, hopefully I'll have another on order soon. And, said before, but that is a nicest ACG Finn ever.

Another delve into my vinyl, and by pure coincidence another 1980 purchase - Sadao Watanabe How's Everything. Anthony Jackson, Steve Gadd, Eric Gale, Dave Gruisin, Ralph MacDonald, Ricard Tee Jeff Mironov and the Tokyo Philharmonic live at the Budokan. Fabulous 🤩 -

A wonderfully lightweight Precision Bass with a straight neck, fully functioning Truss Rod, uprated Seymour ‘Duncan Designed’ Pick ups, professional KiOgen solderless Loom with Bourns Pots, Switchcraft input Jack, Fender Spaghetti Logo and comes complete with an as new (apart from a small scuff to the piping on one corner, please see next to last pic). Ordo lightweight softshell rigid foam case. In excellent condition with a 50’s style vintage two tone tobacco sunburst. Ti Flats fitted since original pics were taken. This is one of the very few sub 8lbs P basses I’ve encountered during the past half Century, weighing in at a mere 3.4kg - or 7.5lbs in ‘old money’ It has had a really nice set up - level frets etc. & plays really well with a low action and sounds like a good P Bass should, with more growl than a very growly thing from the Planet Growl partly thanks to the Maple fingerboard, but I suspect mainly due to our own John’s (Kiogen) recommended capacitor on this fabulous Loom. The headstock has had a refin & a spaghetti Fender logo applied to the headstock by a previous owner to a very high standard. What Fender say……. Features Thin and lightweight solid Popular body Duncan Designed split single-coil pickup 4-saddle hardtail bridge Open-gear tuning machines Chrome hardware Maple Neck Maple Fingerboard. Plus….. Professional KiOgen Wiring Loom with Bourns Potentiometers & Switchcraft Input Jack Level frets & Pro set up with a low action Upgraded Seymour Duncan Designed Pickups Luthier refinished neck with Fender Spaghetti Logo Ordo lightweight Softshell rigid foam case

A really nice example finished in the beautiful Fender Dakota Red. It has had a really nice set up - level frets, low playing action & is in excellent condition. It feels about the same size as a Strat to me and weighs in at 2.8Kg, or a tad over 6lbs in ‘old money’ The back of the neck has a lovely flame to the Maple. Other upgrades include a KiOgen wireless loom, Bourns potentiometers, Switchcraft output Jack socket, uprated pickups and a spiffing Celluloid top layer faux Tortoiseshell pickguard. This Bass would be ideal as a travelling instrument, for a beginner, or anyone with smaller hands. Because it is so small - about the same size as a Fender Stratocaster, it is ideal as a studio Bass or just for ‘noodling’ - Guitarists love these as they feel familiar in their hands. Included in the sale is a Gibson heavily padded Levy’s Gig Bag which although is a tad threadbare in places, still provides excellent protection. Solid Popular Body Maple Neck - Beautifully fingered on this example. Indian Laurel Fingerboard. What Fender say…….

Pretty much mint condition bar a couple of tiny marks on headstock which I've tried to show in the photos. Very little use, taken in trade but I'm just not using it (got 'trumped' by another bass!). Comes with a slightly battered Sandberg gig bag, good for storage/protection but with a broken zip on the main front pocket. Collection only, Bristol

I think hand shape may have a lot to do with this, too. I note from the pic that the OP has similar hands to mine, ie tentacles. I’m also one of the few who finds low-profile computer mice comfortable.

Am I imagining this 'harmonica'?

That R&B one is quite an ingenious bit of kit. Probably not very versatile though.
