I watched quite a bit on BBC over the weekend and my only gear comment is that most bands I saw were using P-basses or P-style basses. 🤔

Looking for a 5u Shallow rack SKB style case
jazzyvee replied to jazzyvee's topic in Accessories and Misc
I do have a 3U SKB that is similar to that too, which is great as the fat handle helps carrying it with my weighty preamps. Most of the flight cases seem to have slim handles which are unpleasant to carry with heavy stuff in. Currently I use a 4U SKB roto shallow rack with a 1U power amp. I would prefer to move the 1U power amp into the 3U rack with my bass power supply and F1-x preamp for a lighter rack. Then use my 2U Crown XLS amp into fat handled 5U, Ideally, shallow rack with two pre-amps and a bass psu. So the fat handle will help with carrying the weight. -
Yes. usually when I can use my own rig or when it's a venue where i know the sound is going to be great.

I was hoping that might not be the case, though I suspect you are right. I will go for lightweight 6 if I have to. -

This was a track from a local band called La Cigale I joined just before Covid and we got a couple of gigs during a couple of the times we could meet outdoors. This was my second gig with them and also my second full gig upright bass.

Not completely happy with this but it's here fluffs and all. 😂

A while back I decided to try some flats on this bass and decided to try some Steely Dan bass lines as I've read Chuck Rainey used flats on many of their tracks. I found a few no bass videos on youtube of steely dan and others and had a play along.

Not sure if the principle is the same for bass as it is guitars, but where goes. I had the same issue with active guitars and distortion pedals. In the end I found the solution to be using a valve based distortion pedal or the dirty channel of my valve guitar amp. I ended up buying a Radial trimode which works great.

I'm gonna try that then.

How far have you travelled to pick up a Bass?

Had to be done for a bass like that. 👍🏾 -

jazzyvee replied to HeadlessBassist's topic in Bass Guitars
I travelled from brum to LHR then to LAX, then drove from there to Santa Rosa to pick up my Alembic from the factory. Also on another occasion drove from brum to Berlin to pick up my DB. PHEW…… good fun but never again. 🧐 -
Contribution to the tonewood debate - a unique take (Bacci)
jazzyvee replied to three's topic in Bass Guitars
Hopefully they are organically bred.🫣🤨 -
Stanley Clarke EBS Acoustic Preamp, has two channels and mic in, DI out great tone controls, notch & HPF filter on each channel and phantom power too. Plus aux in and headphone out so good as a practice headphone amp too.
