  1. You're with the wrong people. Don't compromise on quality, eventually you will be surrounded by the right musicians.
  2. Hi All! For sale here is an Aguilar DB410 (4 ohm) cabinet in absolute mint, 10/10 condition. Basically brand new, less than a year old, kept in a wheeled flightcase since day 1 (can supply flightcase if buyer interested). Been used for a handful of gigs and hasn't been driven hard, as I primarily use in-ears. The tone is phenomenal! One of the best, loudest 4x10s out there with a max SPL of 130db. Sounds sensational with a valve amp. Can be supplied in original box with original purchase receipt if buyer prefers. Price is [b]£850 [/b](these are around £1,300 RRP presently). No trades thanks. Price includes insured courier service to anywhere in the UK - cabinet is in Northern Ireland, should any interested parties wish to give her a whirl! Happy Bidding!

  4. I'd love to own a Rick! Such a distinctive look and sound. I will own one some day!
  5. The bass fill at 4:16 in It Gets Funkier is my favourite thing ever - just wow. Can't wait to see them in Dublin this September. I'm expecting that 75% of the audience will be bass players!
  6. Talking Heads 'Once in a Lifetime' - two notes the whole song despite a key change.
  7. Fees in Northern Ireland for a 5 piece live band with lights, PA and DJ included range from £1,200 to £1,500, for what is essentially a full night's entertainment from after dinner to closing time.
  8. If you have never been to Ireland before, Dublin is a must. Plenty to do if you have a day to spare, plus very accessible by air from anywhere in the UK. The usual tourist stuff is pretty good actually - Guinness Brewery, Kilmainham Gaol, Glasnevin Cemetery, plenty of nice museums and of course the Temple Bar area which is the hub of music, nightlife and 'craic' in the city. If you plan to spend a little longer than one day, I would recommend an open-top bus sightseeing tour on the first day (weather permitting) and thereafter making a note of your favourite sights to visit later/the next day.
  9. What a lovely tune - only just listened to 'Heavy Weather' this week for the first time and this tune really stood out. Must learn!
  10. Hi guys Have a Jazz body blank that I would like finished in a vintage white Nitro finish. Any recommendations for a UK based company who could do this? Cheers! D
  11. Another proponent of higher action here. I do have a heavy touch however! Strings definitely have a bit more airtime particularly in the studio.
  12. [color=black]I currently use a Fender Jazz into Aguilar DB751 and DB410, or an Ibanez Promethean 2x10 mini stack if I have to carry my own gear (I know I know)[/color][color=black] [/color] [color=black]I’m a big fan of not overcomplicating my setup however I will soon add a Sadowsky onboard preamp to the Jazz.[/color]
  13. 2004-ish, a year or so after I started playing: Ibanez SRX500 (I used D'Addario Prosteel strings back then) Nondescript guitar cable Hartke Kickback 12 Korg Tuner
  14. Jamerson Impeccable groove, placement and sense of melody in his playing.
  15. Probably Sir Duke. The phrasing and swing is so hard to get. I love playing it now and use it as a warm-up song.
  16. Roger Waters - Pink Floyd Chris Wolstenholme - Muse
  17. I would keep the YOB, but the problem with YOB basses (particularly 70s Jazz Basses) is that there are often much better basses out there, fit and finish wise. The YOB thing can muddy the water a bit with nostalgia. Not suggesting there's anything wrong with yours of course! I'd love to own it
  18. I wish they'd given it to a better player to demonstrate.
  19. Stiffness and tension are probably not the same thing - flats by their nature are less pliable than rounds. Tension-wise, I find 760FLs to be somewhere between Roto Jazz 77s (very tight) and TI Jazz flats (very loose)
  20. Was Michael Jackson Now Stevie Wonder!
  21. Rock the Boat Jamerson on bass and that incredible F# that comes out of nowhere. What's not to like?
  22. Are you planning on working as a musician? You can apply for a J1 Working Holiday 1 year Visa.
  23. TI and Roto flats on my basses til they break (which did happen once!)
  24. Everly Brothers - When Will I Be Loved, much better cover by someone whose name escapes me, you all know the one, it's a bit like Fleetwood Mac?
  25. Hot Covers are much more robust than Roqsolid IMO.
