I found a few more short samples (mic and then XLR out) [url="http://en.audiofanzine.com/bass-guitar-combo-amp/fender/Bassman-TV-Series/reviews/"]here[/url] (scroll to the bottom of the page).

You're not alone. I'm also interested to hear the 12". From the sounds of the vid, they do sound reasonably fat though, but that guy always plays quietly. It would be good to hear it in a band context.

Wunjo appear to have an [url="http://www.wunjoguitars.com/index.php?sid=4&mid=1"]Ox bass[/url] - a strange Fender neck/Charvel body Precision (second one down). Not sure if he ever played it though.

I hate it when drummers change the tempo. I also hate it when they get offended, when i tell them, as if it's impossible for them not to keep it constant. As well as playing in bands, i've played to a drum machine for over 15 years, so i know what a nice, solid, non-fluctuating beat feels like. I agree, we bassists hear everything, while all other parties generally only listen to themselves.

So many amps, such little space.

Thanks. Yes, i'd also like to hear it with a passive bass too. I think it's 5kg MacDaddy. I wonder what the wattage is at 8ohms.

That'll be the Bath store of Vintage and Rare. There's also Angel Music on Denmark Street too. It's upstairs, above where the old Music Ground was.

Do you come up with your own stuff and or play other instruments? I'm really enjoying my band at the moment, as i feel we're really progressing. However, at some point it will end. When it does, time that was dedicated to the band wil be dedicated to recording my own material. At the moment, i just voice memo record ideas and keep them. Eventually i plan to record them properly.

[/quote] You mean like this chap?

That's a cracking price/rig. I saw 'The Raveonettes' live, recently and the bassist had that Fender head and either 2 Fender 4x10s or an 8x10 (can't remember) with a Precision and it sounded superb - really fat.

Whoever he is, he's using my cabs

Are we going to see a bit of a market for sub-100W bass valve amps then? I don't particulalrly like the look of it, but i imagine it would make a nice home/practice amp if you like your valves. No doubt it could be pretty loud for that too.

I'm only impressd by the song personally. Probably not the answer you were looking for, but it doesn't matter what your technique is, if the song/music is rubbish.

Hmm, perhaps you're envious of other people's Jazz basses and should really just be content with playing a little keyboards instead.

[quote name='Clarky' post='674001' date='Dec 4 2009, 10:48 AM']Doesn't help your current predicament but I wholeheartedly recommend that anyone wishing to avoid buckle rash get one of these [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=58475&hl=Clarky"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...5&hl=Clarky[/url][/quote] This is undoubtedly the bass equivalent of elbow pads.

The Fender J Mascis Jazzmaster (MIJ) has a basswood body too. With regards to Fender, i think it's used mostly in the MIJ models.

Yeah, you see him in the studio with a 4 string Spector in the 'Nothing else matters' vid

I saw the '64 LPB Precision in V&R today. Looks lovely. I also like the sonic blue 60s one as well. I bet they sound and feel lovely. [i]'Please enquire'[/i] always means [i]'too expensive'[/i] for me

I've recently bought a T.Rex Fuel Tank Junior (power supply). Finally, hum free FX! I don't use many (tuner, comp, fuzz...) but i'm thinking about getting a Pedaltrain Jr and one of those patch lead kits. It will save so much setting up and packing up at practice and gigs. No more batteries/adapters and just one standard shape/sized plug.

Hmm, no Precisions Not a million miles from me. Might keep an eye out. Thanks.

EHX Knockout Attack Eqaulizer. It can add serious bass.

There used to be a music shop on the via del Corso, when i lived in Rome in the 90s. Wasn't particularly well stocked. Instruments were upstairs. I still have a Boss delay pedal which i bought there. I don't think i ever tracked down any bass only stores.
