the pink one had a broken truss rod so I had John Diggins respray it Pearl Blue with neck and head binding he also fitted SN2000 pick ups which are now in my green GA24

Here are the six I had back in 99/2000

For what its worth this was my rig many many years ago a really old GP11 series 2 with the original hard wood case UV light and giant fan plus a series 6 200 watt head(not pictured) a 1018 1x18 cab which sounded great and a multi stack 2x10 on the top which I used to give to our drummer on gigs the GP11 used to break down a lot so I replaced it with a Peavey Firebass 700 which turned the rig into a monster sorry bout picture quality its a scan of a photo

hey guys/gals I'm in the market for some double gig bags and have spotted these Madarozzo bags on the net has anyone got one or had one what's your opinions ?? http://www.soundunlimited.co.uk/products/madarozzo_double_electric_bass_guitar_gig_bag_ma-g0050-debbk

Great thread guys thank you

I also picked up guitar after 15 odd years of bass playing as I got bored of being a side man and having to rely on a band to gig one of the best things I've ever done I recommend to anyone thinking of picking up another instrument to do it I am amazed at how many drummers are also great piano players as well i suppose it would make sense as its also a percussion instrument

Sorry if this has already been covered on the Forum but I had to share when I started playing bass I used to wear it under my chin it was the 80's after all once the novelty of the flying thumb wore off I started to wear my bass a little lower just above waste height but have always felt like I was not really playing the instrument as it wasn't close enough to my body(if that makes sense) just recently I have adjusted my strap to a much longer length (just above crotch)mostly to hide my gut but also because I felt stupid wearing the bass so high after all these years I am no longer the 7 stone bean pole I used to be I used to work in a Book Bindary and have destroyed my wrists(steady)so at some angles I get painful clicking wrists when playing but that has gone now i have no troubles hitting the notes plus I play with thumb on the front pick up of my Cirrus's with the fingers plucking over the bridge so I still get a nice tight sound I know our bodies change when we get older we hunch and get wider as middle age spreads but how do you guys/girls wear your basses????
