  1. as @Sean says P retrowind was awesome.
  2. The Grapes in Bury St Edmunds has music too I love this part of the country
  3. yeah at the end of my video lesson he says JJ played a knackered old P bass, high action and one finger and so all his tips were bollox lol
  4. yep Toneriders are excellent. Pots easy enough to change etc I can fret level now, so should be all good really
  5. I'll bring mine to the south east bass bash next year (if it's any good that is)
  6. absolutely,
  7. oops, bought one of these too experiment you understand
  8. they've got a 2 humbuckr strat om there atm £48.00 https://www.bax-shop.co.uk/electric-guitars/fazley-outlaw-series-sheriff-basic-hh-blue-electric-guitar-with-gig-bag?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=ADC_Bax_UK_NBD_Shopping_Own-Brand_bucket2&utm_id=23191023039&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23191023039&gbraid=0AAAAA_lFRUyWEfvUI67OL1_MebUCD6goB&gclid=Cj0KCQiA6sjKBhCSARIsAJvYcpNTgANqGcZWs6mdAwvab5-ueHZd4gfDypkjePmUzObaot6AlqQYpQ0aAnUREALw_wcB
  9. yes price has gone back up got in just in time
  10. I've been gigging for over 40 years but I don't understand compression. I've used it in front of an octave pedal, to make the octave pedal track better but I'm not sure it worked any better (it was in the early 90s)
  11. not bass related but got a real tie it yourself bowtie this is so I can untie it, after dinner, and look a bit more like Daniel Craig's Bond Mum sent me 100 quid which I've put towards my Dingwall Just like @NancyJohnson we tend to buy what we want, when we want it but this year Christmas was about having friends round for lunch, wine and games
  12. well I'm glad to report that I'm not too far out with what my mate has told me but after my playing 2 days ago, my plucking fingers are sore, so I need more playing hours to build up calluses on my fingers shorter nails works for me too
  13. damn, out of stock Still I can wait 10 days I hope it's not too heavy
  14. Having recently bought my Dingwall John Taylor bass (and not really having a gig for it) I've started to learn my 80s duo stuff but on the bass. It would be fun to swap between guitar and bass on some gigs ( the bass line on Rio is particularly good) I've decided that I should do some of this stuff more authentically and play using fingers and not always with a pick The guy in my 80s band is a music teacher and awesome bass player and he's putting together a short video of how he plays with fingers stuff like how to keep the volume the same between different fingers Also he says to keep the nails on your plucking hand short so they don't pick the string Anyone else got any more tips for me on this, (keeping the nails short is a great tip)
  15. Hi there actually I have no idea. There is facebook sites dedicated to tribut acts, they probably advertise on there Probably start following a few bands online and maybe message them that you would be interested if the opportunity came up I joined U2 Tribe after a support slot with The Policed in Southend. I saw their bassist had announced his departure and so I contacted their singer Job was mine immediately as they had already seen me and loved my bass sound
