This jaco thing must stop. As Pat Metheny says "there will only ever be one jaco, I think people should get over it, and just leave his music as it is....." I agree a million percent , out of all the people i've seen play jaco stuff, maybe twice i thought "woaw this is actually nice" I respect the man and what he did for bass, but it must be left alone and listened to. Not butchered like most people do.... This is just my opinion, I totally respect the fact people would wanna learn it as personal challenge, so I am not trying at all to start a can of worm, or a fire. cheers

yep

i just put my amp on 11....

Hi, I live in Berlin, where the market is way down than anything i've seen (although the cost of life is down, my monthly rent all bills included is £240 and i live alone). In town a corporate / wedding will get you about 200/250 euro per musician. So you basically pay your rent and food with 2 or 3 gigs. Outside of Berlin in cities with more money that rises to about 400/500 euro per person for 2 or 3 sets, and more... I've had some amazing experience, some very bad. A barmitzva, by contract food has to be included for the band.... food looks amazing... BUT they had ordered pizza hut for the band. LOL... etc In Belgium where i gig often, a wedding would be about 300 per musician.

it is!

if no alcohol, then if you want the gig..... that's the way it'll be i've seen people being fired and getting flown off the ship, and back to Berlin, at their own expenses.... for drinking a beer after the working time lol so... careful

yes, before any one ask, the b string is very very nice..... and yes its possible with a 33 inch

hi guys here is my latest overwater. Specs : ash body poplar top full wengé neck 3 band eq 33 inch tuning B to G Attention to detail is absolutely stunning. Working with overwater is a pleasure, although i do recommend calling them straight, which has been a bit hard with me as I live in Germany. Yes they are not too good with emails...... it's the 1st ever 33 inch jazz with a low B they have ever done. It's basically a whole new model with a downsized jazz body etc. just have a look. cheers

just don't believe people saying the tanglewood / overwater are as good as the uk one... there's a reason why one is worth 500... and the other one 2500/3000 you can't go wrong with them in the end, what ever people may think of, there's a reason they've been used by full time pro since the 80's

hard to say, for having played one for many hours, when I had it for a bit..... nothing sounds like a wal, literally nothing... on the other hand, it does MANY MANY MANY tones which are totally NOT usable.... but once you find that sweet one.... you'll probably not find a better one with any other bass man!
