Great skills mate. We're thinking of covering this in my new band so will have to brush up. Just out of interest - have you always played with 3 fingers? I grew up playing Maiden but have always used 2 - tried to covert to 3 a few years back but I'm too set in my ways!

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1366799974' post='2057439'] It's a bit unusual; usually when people do silly bass face, it's because they are totally caught up in the song, in a world of their own. This lady is constantly looking at her fretting hand, seemingly having to concentrate on what finger goes where. Is it legal to do silly bass face when you're not totally in the moment? [/quote] Am I the only one who finds her really attractive? I do like an angry gurner.

How soon after first picking a bass up did you gig?
Kinder replied to bobpalt's topic in General Discussion
Far too soon - about 6 weeks after picking up a bass for the first time at the tender age of 14. The set included Phanton of the Opera & Running Free by Maiden, plus Alright Now etc so a few bass solos to ease me in! The scariest thing was we were supporting a band made up of people from Musical Exchanges in Brum - proper talented musos. God only knows how we got the gig, why we took it or what they all thought. I think I've blanked it out. All gigs after that were a lot easier though! -
Lynottfan "Harris/Burr for me." +1 Much as I love Nicko, Clive (RIP) and Steve were tight as a gnat's chuff on the first 3 albums.

Sorry mate! I was surprised it went so quickly. It's now winging its way to Belfast.

Hi I acquired this very tasty jazz in a trade a few months ago: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/195129-ft-08-fender-jazz-traded/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.u...__fromsearch__1[/url] It's a stunner and plays beautifully. The original control plate is supplied but I love the stacked knobs. I'm only looking to move it on as I've recently rejoined a band after a break and I need a decent 5 string. So I'm looking for a 5er in exchange. I'm not blessed with massive hands so I won't be able to cope with a hugely wide neck. A Jazz or similar would be ideal but let me know what you've got. I guess £650-700 is around the mark for trade value for my Jazz. Will sell also for around that. I'm in Birmingham but travel to London for work regularly and can bring it down. Cheers Andy

Not been on the site for a while and I can't believe a US P is up for £500 and hasn't been snapped up. Bump for a great bass and price.

Hello mate. Is this a 62 reissue? -
All very useful, thanks guys.
-
Thanks Bert. Is it a big hassle to whip the strap on and off? (That sounds wrong.)
-
Hi all I need to get some straplocks after a near miss. They're for an 08 Fender Precision. I fancied the Fender branded ones but have read a review that the bass won't fit in the moulded SKB case with them fitted. Has anyone had this problem? Does it still fit with Schallers in place? Ta v much. Andy

That's gorgeous mate, good luck.

Thanks for all the advice guys. My wife's been out for a couple of hours so I've managed to have a good noodle without (a) having to explain why I've bought yet another bass, or ( trying to convince her I've had it for ages and she's definitely seen it before! Got on really well with it. The w

Thanks guys. You know what it's like when you've got something new to play with though, it's hard to leave it alone...

Hi all After 20+ years of playing 4 string, I'm finally giving 5 a go. I've bought a cheap Squier 5er off here to see how I get on as I didn't want to rush in and get something decent until I've given it a go. Can people let me know some tracks they enjoy covering on 5 string so I can practice using the freaky extra string?? I'm into rock but love playing anything with a good bassline. Ta v much. Andy

I'm still very tempted Jez. Someone please take this before I do!

FS: 8 String Fender P Bass, converted by Jon Shuker (SOLUTION)
Kinder replied to Sean.Robinson's topic in Basses For Sale
[size=5][sup]Just read through all of this and it's shocking behaviour. Thankfully this Sean guy is in the minority as I've had nothing but great experiences when buying or selling on here, but that doesn't help you 73jazz. I'd definitely be up for contributing to a fund to make up your loss mate.[/sup] [sup]Hope you get it sorted.[/sup] [sup]Andy[/sup][/size] -
Jacqueslemac has just delivered this book by hand! What a gentleman, many thanks. If anyone would like this after me, let me know and I'll pass it on when I've read it.

On a looooong train journey and listening to Fleetwood Mac. Made me think that The Chain is a pretty average song rescued by a fantastic bass break. Feel free to disagree but are there any other crap songs saved by great basslines?

Someone will be getting a lovely bass - mine was fantastic. Pics will help as the finish is beautiful!

This is up for £2,200!!! [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-2005-Jazz-Bass-24-Deluxe-Discontinued-Model-Owned-Michael-Janisch-/290611936713?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item43a9d23dc9"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-2005-Jazz-Bass-24-Deluxe-Discontinued-Model-Owned-Michael-Janisch-/290611936713?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item43a9d23dc9[/url] I sold one of these on this very forum for £360 delivered back in March and I'd bought it for a similar amount the year before off here. Admittedly it hadn't got the playing pedigree this one has but come on.
