Thank you.... and though I heartily agree re: Rutger, the Voulez Vous bassline was actually recorded by Arnold Paseiro.
-
Lol! If you only knew the amount of FAILED takes I did on each video before I managed to do a clean pass....
-
Funny thing is... I have no recording/tech gear. I simply set up my phone on a shelf, press play on my hi-fi and play along on my bass. I just do a couple of quick passes to check my bass can be heard and that's it. Zero recording gear financial outlay!
-
LOVE that tune! Such a slinky bassline.... Thanks!
-
Within reason...... i.e. if I like the song.... and like/can play the bassline! lol!
-
Wow.... thanks so much everyone. Never done anything like this before and it's not easy to have your playing under the microscope so I really appreciate the support 🥰

Over these past few months of lockdown I've taken the time to record some of my fave basslines. Mainly rock, and lots of KISS, but plenty of other stuff from Cliff Richard to The Doobie Brothers to E,W & F in there.... I did it all for myself initially.....and kept it private with just a few close friends but I've been persuaded to upload it all to the public. I'm playing many of the basses in my collection so lots of bass p*rn in there too for those who don't like my song choices... lol! More basslines being uploaded soon..... so please feel free to subscribe. Hope you enjoy.... and please be kind! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4fUL3cm3mec9PPuWwjxuzA/videos Btw, some friends have asked me why I don't have my face onscreen. This is simply because I prefer to concentrate on the instruments and the basslines. I have no interest in seeing what the person looks like on youtube..... unless it's Marta Altesa

Gorgeous basses. Do a search of this site for them and you'll see a couple of people own/have owned them and only have great things to say....
-
Strange. I've never struggled for different tones. I've used mine for everything from funk to rock to disco to reggae .. and it's delivered every time.

I would look at a Spector with EMGs rather than the Barts. Different kettle 'o' fish and the stand out by far.

His new vid is up: p

I wouldn't say I actively search out new music, but occasionally some new music catches my ear..... the odd new rock act playlisted on Planet Rock... or sometimes something that reminds me of classic older music that I like. e.g. new 'Yacht Rock' purveyors "Young Gun Silver Fox". Otherwise, I like finding 'new to me' old music, typically from the 70's.... e.g. Lake, Lucifer's Friend, Zon etc I prefer my music, whatever the style, to be organic so soulless modern pop, dance, rap music etc generally leaves me cold.

Sorry, no... Good luck with the band.

So, just how many basses do you own ????

I love red basses! Planning to get a red Euro 4 classic soon...
-
Let me know if the buyer doesn't come through... -
Lol! Yes mate.... about the only use it's had.... home recording of lockdown Youtube vids! Not sure about the fanbase/£100 extra but thanks! 😉 -
Going through my old 'big rig' gear and decided that this fantastic rack flightcase is surplus to requirements. An 8u rack, foam cushioned around the sides and foam inside front and back covers too. Also has a fan built in to rear which can be connected up if you wish to help cool any e.g. valve gear. Rack handles on sides.... and the covers are on front and back (back cover has wheels) This case cost £hundreds at the time of build/purchase and is well gigged (but fully functional). Collection only from Ewell/Epsom area (very heavy) and please note that the Furman/BBE/Pod Pro/Samson wireless are NOT included in the sale! Please see my extensive, positive feedback thread for assurance of a clean, honest transaction. Thanks! -
Moving on this fabulous combo - loud enough for acoustic gigs, rehearsals and home practice. Only selling as I've bought a more powerful version to leave at my friends lockup for function gigs... otherwise I'd keep it! Probably the best sounding/value for money small combo on the market - this thing sounds awesome even when set flat, but add in a little of the EQ and/or select the contour button or inbuilt overdrive and you move into other fantastic sonic territories! A useful extra is the Aux In, allowing you to play along to your I-Pod or external media of choice 🙂 Here's the blurb: "The all-new Rumble Series is a mighty leap forward in the evolution of portable bass amps. With its beefier power amp and larger, ported speaker enclosure, the Rumble 25 pumps greater volume and deeper bass response. In addition to standard volume and EQ controls, the Rumble 25 adds a newly-developed overdrive circuit and switchable Contour control, delivering gritty bite and slap-worthy punch at the mere push of a button." Amplifier Type: Solid State Colour: Black/Silver Weight: 21 lbs. (9.53 kg) Height: 15.25" (38.74 cm) Width: 15.25" (38.74 cm) Depth: 11" (27.94 cm) Output Power: 25 watts Speaker: One - 8" Fender® Special Design Impedance: 8 ohms Inputs: One - 1/4" Auxiliary Input: 1/8" Stereo Channels: One Controls: Volume, Bass, Mid, Treble Headphone Jack: 1/4" Cover/Grille Cloth: Black Textured Vinyl Covering with Silver Grille Cloth Handle: Molded Plastic Strap with Nickel-Plated Caps Knobs: Ivory Soft Touch Radio Knobs Pilot Light Jewel: Red LED Other Features: Classic Fender styling, soft-touch radio knobs, removable front grille These are approx £125 new. Mine is in fantastic, lightly used, condition so asking a very reasonable £SOLD, cash on collection or direct bank transfer on collection only please. At this price there is no point offering shipping... Collection from Woking/Guildford area or can meet within 25 miles for petrol money. Please see my very extensive, positive feedback thread for assurance of a trustworthy and honest transaction. Thanks!

Cheers! Love this one.... but I was more looking for the original late 80's Japanese model. -
Welcome to the club! Prepare for an addiction....

Well the latter years of that made for depressing viewing. Particularly the last 20 years.... and specifically the last 10....
