He plays Fodera basses, more or less exclusively, I think. And he plays banjo, too, apparently...

No, I'd still rather have a Hiscox Litflite...and I could have two for that price.

[quote name='Dr.Dave' post='939774' date='Aug 30 2010, 08:29 AM']A shame when someone accepts the challenge to act like a professional then behaves like an amateur. A feather in caps though to those who take a 'show must go on' attitude and do the job they were employed to do. Grace under pressure - good on you all.[/quote] I too have take some exception to this common misuse of the word 'amateur'. In a great many fields of life, they are the true masters of their art because, as the word says, they do it for the love of it. The truest amateurs are in fact, nearly always, the most professional of all. Would have been better to use something like, erm, I dunno..."d*ckhead", maybe?

Doesn't sound a pleasant place to be...hope something works out.

and if I'm not mistaken, it is pretty similar to a std Jazz...

My first experience of Yes was the line-up before Steve Howe - they were trying to fix a Telecaster on the counter at Rose-Morris while I was trying to buy strings... THEN...heard and bought the Yes Album, then saw them at the Dagenham Roundhouse, 69/70 time. Brilliant.

Jean-Luc nails it...

Be grateful for any opportunity you get. Covers, originals - it's simply irrelevant. Just play!

Also, on the subject of neck differences, remember that most Precisions have a nut width of 1.625". The Jazz is 1.5". The Jazz is only very slighly different to the P in that the [i]taper[/i] is different. If you have smaller hands, and spend most of your time above the 5th fret, you're not going to notice much difference. The Precisions that have the 1.75" nut width do feel considerably chunkier than a Jazz, but they are less common. Then there are the oddballs, like the Squier in my sig, which is half way between the two...

Talk to Wizard Pickups - he'll have no trouble winding you the right size pair, and you'll have handwound pickups for a good price. [url="http://www.wizardpickups.co.uk/"]Wizard[/url]

Hello!

Howdy!

Rotosound Rotobass 40-100s rounds: cheap, last me plenty long enough (>6 months a set), and unsilked, which looks better IMO. TI Jazz Flats on the split-coil Precision - wondrous noise and soooo comfy! +1 for 'should have been checkboxes...
