    Sorry, that does absolutely nothing for me. Give me the pre-CBS ironing board... but each to their own!

    Picked up a Barefaced Super Compact this week thanks to a kindly tipoff on this forum. I intend using this on its own as a more compact replacement for the MarkBass CMD102P that has served me well for several years (if you want to know the truth, it won't quite fit in the boot of our new car...d'oh!). So what do I need to get the best out of my sparkly new speaker? My two projects are: (1) classic rock four-piece including keyboards; I use a Jazz for this. (2) Motown/blues trio, for which I use a Precision and do a lot more bottom-end playing. Any steers as to power and make of potential amp acquisitions, plus reasoning for an ignoramus like me, are welcomed!

    I hated playing without a drummer in the bluegrass quintet I was briefly with. Unless someone else is a rhythm player you're swimming against the tide.

    UB40 technically covered a reggae version by Tony Tribe, Jack. Can't recall the orig either but Diamond plays it reggae style now while counting his royalties

    [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1489067734' post='3254126'] He's played for lots of people, including Nick Heyward... [/quote] Theres a Top of the Pops where the pair appear together - curiously, no band. Whistle Down The Wind, as I recall.

    Seen one at 299 in a shop. Was described to me as Fender MIM build standard, but admittedly i didnt try it myself.

    Ed Sheeran is the new Nick Heyward, then!

    For the price it is hard to beat but i have found the Countryman a pleasanter instrument, albeit at a greater cost.

    Love this thread! I offer Welsh prog-rockets Quicksand (only album Home is Where I Belong reissued a few years ago by Esoteric Recordings). Come to think of it these are all esoteric recordings!

    [quote name='julesb' timestamp='1486739733' post='3234279'] Great band. Super version of this Bonnie Rait tune. http://youtu.be/2OIAURQLnMI [/quote] Hate to be picky but John Prine wrote it. Good song.

    [quote name='BassApprentice' timestamp='1486569517' post='3232878'] Side note. What are peoples experience with steel strings on U basses? Is it worth just sticking with the rubber(y) ones? [/quote] Have seen/heard these demoed. Sound then becomes electric bass-like, making size your only advantage. No double bass sound remains, so would not do it myself..

    [quote name='Bbiigg Kev' timestamp='1486549367' post='3232609'] What is line up ? [/quote] Deborah Bonham's band.
