Tongue - R.E.M.

Sire? Steinberger.

They played in Cliff Williams and Geezer Butlers bands respectively 😉

calling @ki0g0n John makes excellent controls for passive basses and is more qualified than most to weigh in here. I'd go with a 500kΩ pot and a 47nf capacitor, but that's just my taste. depends how much of the top end you want to roll off - a smaller value capacitor (e.g.22nf) will allow more top end through when the tone control is at 0%.

Nobody Weird Like Me - RHCP

Real, Real, Real - Jesus Jones

Yup. I'm not playing live anywhere near as much as I used to, so periodically running through setlist for bands I occasionally dep with helps me keep my piggies wriggling and also makes sure that there's less 'cramming' to do when the dep gigs come in.

Eclectic Electric - Primus

that and his enthusiasm for 'better living through chemistry'.

Just do we’re all singing from the same hymn sheet, are we standing up for key changes? 😉

I play sat down almost exclusively now thanks to long covid. Doesn’t affect my ability to play, but I use a fairly short chair due to pedalboard duty.

Bass (mostly fretless Jazz) - pedalboard - zoom 607 as a headphone amplifier, I’m toying with an EHX headphone amp as they’re battery powered too, and significantly smaller. The 607 is a lot of fun though.

an iPhone on the same wifi network as this will work as a remote control. We have to do this when our remote periodically goes missing - often down the back of a sofa.

Dog Breath Variations - Zappa

Most of the Eagles' output and 'Lily the Pink' by Scaffold.

Let’s be honest, it’s safer than stacking them vertically!

Equine, Women and Song - Whitesnake

Dig a pony - the lads

Speaking as an Englishman, I think the attraction with moving ‘North of the wall’ would be that I wouldn’t be living in England anymore.

well, that means we don't need to buy another bass - where's the fun in that?

James Hetfield offering him a million dollars to join Metallica might have something to do with it…

Another vote for Stu Hamm here too. I bought one of his albums on the recommendation of another bass player and was spectacularly underwhelmed. His tone seems to lack any kind of low end too.
