Retired on a pension and SS, I have lots of time and know how to use a keyboard. If you ask me the time, I'll tell you how to build a clock. I live up and over the California desert city of Palm Springs where we look down on it from our mountain house at 4,200 feet altitude. We (my wife and I) moved here to get out of the smog and bad air of the Hemet/San Jacinto Valley and all the crime. Up until a week or so ago - I was on a bass-buying splurge to get back into shape and purchase several basses - all with 'different voices' if you will. But you know how that is for bass player. More gear! Not going pro again - nor will I be hitting the road. I play a few private BBQs and lawn parties and have a gig going on at a few fire stations in the upper valley here. I tend two gravitate toward Fender gear - but also have a couple of Ibanez basses - one acoustic (AEB10E-BK) and an SR500. My Fenders (even Fender Squier clone) start with my very favorite Affinity P-bass which is no longer stock although it looks deceptively so. Better p'ups and a neck to die for. Oh - and a secret switch to take it into the basement for tone. My Next Squier is a Vintage Modified J-Bass in natural and blonde everywhere you can see except for the PG and the neck blocks. Then I have a Deluxe MiM J-Active Fender that is a Cadillac to me - since my SR500 is my Stradivarius! They both have killer tone and qualities that fortunately don't overlap each other. That's why I need them both. Would anyone like to explain that to my wife please? I play a mean trombone, harmonicas and keyboard and can hum a decent kazoo too. Just don't ask me to sing and play bass at the same time. Since this is a UK-site, I would like to tell you that I have an olde friend on Geraldine Road in Wandsworth SW18 - but somehow have lost contact over the years. Let me know if you see her go by, OK? Currently I have ordered one of the new VM Squier Jaguar basses from my favorite Guitar Center. Hopefully it gets there soon. That should be all I need to be happy. Well - that and a bag of $20.00 USD bills in non-sequential numbers and unmarked. A medium bag of twenties would be sufficient - I'm not greedy. I've looked in here a few times and noticed a lot of topics that I need to study and understand since my sabbatical from music for over 40 years.

  5. [quote name='Master blaster' post='910107' date='Jul 30 2010, 11:40 AM']Really try lock in with the bass drum and the snare. Its all about getting "in the pocket". Once you've got the groove down then u can start to add the little fills etc. I find that with Jamiroquai and other Acid Jazz, soul funk etc its all about groove. Not so much trying to impress people with showy off type things. Also with Jamiroquai Zender and Fyffe used to like using octaves alot, which kinda give the bass lines a kinda disco feel.[/quote] pleaze listen to Tower Of Power, Frances on buss is playing zeer gut. This Jemerryqui crapp is a zeer badd and cheap immitatshun oof Tower of Power. best foget that Jerrmeerryquire crapp toon unt pick somptin woth playin.
