  1. Great guitars, I have the black version, plays and sounds fantastic, easy enough to play whilst sat on an office chair that has arms too.
  2. Yes it`s amazing that given how many very talented bassists there were throughout punk that Mr Ferocious is the most well known.
  3. Agree, I like Dagans guitar reviews but this doesn`t make the pedal sound great, I`m sure there are much better tones that can be coaxed from it.
  4. If portability is a factor then a Fender Rumble combo - either the 500 or 800 - would work. They’re plenty loud, lightweight to carry and can be picked up used for good prices.
  5. There’s a prog about The Specials on at 9pm Tue 19 March.
  6. New set of Hipshot Ultralites installed on one of my JMJs this morning, does make a difference, this is my lightest one so the neck dive, whilst not massive was more noticeable than on the others, much more balanced now. They’re a doddle to install too, straight fit, I’d def recommend them for the JMJ.
  7. Good comms there. Given there are 3 extended breaks 4 - 8 would be doable if my back were ok but at present that would be way beyond me, a 40min set makes me hurt for a good few days.
  8. I think it would start with C And end with UNT
  9. I’m 6ft and don’t think they look that out of place
  10. I switched last year to short scales from Precisions, I went for the Fender JMJ Mustang as it has a neck with similar width & feel to a Precision (and a fairly similar sound in the mix too). It hardly took anytime at all to feel very familiar playing it, in fact it was pretty instant, as a Precision player for years I was concerned I wouldn’t gel with it but my concerns soon faded. The neck dive I don’t notice too much, though I do use a Mono Betty strap which provides good support & stability (I went short scale due to back issues so made sense to have a good strap as well). Changing the tuners to Hipshot Ultralites would reduce the weight by a fair bit - principle of levers & all that, knocking off 200+ grams at the end would be very noticeable. This is something I’m thinking of to make my JMJs (I have 3) even more practical.
  11. I`m like that with my fave Precision which I`ve had since 2015, although I`ve had loads of other basses throughout this period this bass is the one which I really know.
  12. Dreadful news, Nick was a really decent guy
  13. Gutted, Nick was such a nice guy
  14. Good luck Billy, must have been great fun learning those bass lines.
  15. To minimise the amount of kit I carry about I use a Nux system which is just two bugs, one for bass & one for amp. Works on 5.8 too, so no taxis or pizzas interference.
