Telebass

Wotcher!

And another +1 to getting that hi-hat into your ears. Not always possible in a pub band setting, but if you're lucky enough to be able to get a custom monitor mix, make sure the hi-hat is there, and try to stand on that side of the kit if you can. The bass drum is tghe lock, but the hi-hat can be the groove and accent part.

Howdy!

Welcome!

Bonjour et bienvenue! That's probably the limit of my French, I'm sorry to say! Enjoy!

Howdy! Enjoy!

Welcome!

Welcome! One of my basses (my best one in fact!) is a Japanese Fender, a 1996 51RI. A great bass. Enjoy yourself on the forum! There's always something to learn here!

Welcome!

Welcome! Top bass, too!

Welcome!

Welcome!

Perzakly! And, for completeness, the black standard Precision you saw has a standard BBOT! For the 2nd set, I used the 51RI, with the (entirely usable) 2-saddle string thru bridge. Ashtrays! I like them ashtrays...

Howdy! Welcome back.

Howdy! Enjoy!

Welcome!

Welcome!

:blush: Wow, don't know what to say! Glad you enjoyed it, and sorry you weren't feeling so good. It was a much better-attended gig than we thought. We thought, given the proximity to Christmas, distance to pay-day and foul weather, that we'd be lucky to get 40-50 people in. And we got 117! Less than our previous gigs but good for the day. We enjoyed it, and it's always great to know that it went down well! Thanks Jon!

Good news!

Welcome! Buy a Precision.

Welcome! Horrid or not, we'd love to see that P-bass!

The Streamer Std 5 I had for a while had a one-piece jobby somewhere between a BBOT and a BAII. Perfectly adequate. And 'adequate' means 'up to the job', not 'barely makes it'...why bother with excess capability you'll never use?

Welcome, 8888, from 101!

We're glad you're here too! Welcome!

Bump this, as it's happening again tonight...
