I like Beck. Although like your previous self, I’ve not really given him the time much past the singles. I will say though, that’s a fantastic concept you’ve got for your band!

Very, very nice! I met Alan & his wife at the Bass Show and they were lovely. Tried a 32” 5er and it was superb! Enjoy!

I’ve used ‘Setlist Helper’ for about 5 years and so far it’s been fine 👍

Sorry to hear you’re having some health battles. Perhaps take the pressure off yourself and give yourself a specific length of time ‘off’. Put everything away for a month and tell yourself you’re not going to touch it but after the set time you’re going to crack on. In the meantime, consume as much music and bass related stuff as possible. I find watching old live gigs of bands and artists I love on YouTube makes me itch to pick up the instrument. You might find that the idea of not being able to play it combined with lots of inspiration to be a good reset.

Is this expensive or am I missing something?
AlexDelores replied to SteveXFR's topic in General Discussion
They have it listed 3 times for 3 different prices too 🤔 -
That looks superb. There’s just something about a Sunburst Jazz 👌
-
Fair enough! Mystery solved! Well, it looks the dogs! 👌
-
That Dano looks fantastic… But, I’m very intrigued what the wrong bass was that you picked up? 👀

The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
AlexDelores replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
Yeah but it’s only a 4 string with no 5 string option. Sorry, I meant that I’m surprised they haven’t jumped on the SS 5 string gap rather than the SS as a general rule. Yeah, I’m not a massive fan of the styling of the Talmans. I’m a bit of a boring traditional shaped guitar guy. Maybe I need to play one of the EHB ones and get over myself as they’re nice looking, I just can’t imagine myself playing one as they’re a bit too modern looking!😂🙏 -

AlexDelores replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
Yeah, all very good points. I think just as mentioned above that as SS’s are having their moment, I’m surprised that a brand like Sire hasn’t jumped in with a decent entry level bass. Especially when you can see it’s been done by Ibanez already, so it can be achieved. -

AlexDelores replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
I’m looking at getting a 5 string. And, as I’m mostly gigging shorts now, I thought I’d try and find a SS 5. Having a scan of this thread and multiple googles. Is the only real option for a 5 string shortie under £1k+ the Ibanez Talman & Micro? Am I missing something or is there a massive gap in the market here? -
Wow! That looks fantastic 👏

Advice on 5 string (400-600 budget, growl)
AlexDelores replied to trickythump's topic in Bass Guitars
A lovely natural one of these turned up on EBay earlier this week for not a lot of £. I was just on my way out when I saw it and when I returned 30 mins later to buy it, it had gone 😞 Gutted. -

Finally, someone says what we all knew already
AlexDelores replied to Happy Jack's topic in General Discussion
This was posted on April 1st… Was the Journo in fact listening to Global radio and sick of hearing the same song on repeat and decided to get back at them with a good old fashioned April Fools? 🤔 -
Nice! I entered this also. Glad to see it went to a Basschatter. Congrats 🙌 Nice review. Really wanted to try one of these out at The Bass Show but I couldn’t get to find a free amp at any point to try them as they were always taken!
-
The JDSterlings have just made these things by On Guitars look too complicated. Are we living in the minimalist bass era now? I don’t hate it tbh!

Mr Dart is going to be having a very comfy Christmas this year… https://intl.sterlingbymusicman.com/collections/joe-dart?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3hd0P0YOGzCrOgWgDxhlvkWqDtRkHVx0Eaa7DLfaM8JKnpoDeqlLGSwPY_aem_1Ls5dt3LQjdyMv6XiDjoOA&shpxid=12b4a27c-3d19-496a-a86d-d793ecb86252

I was just thinking of this song. I’m fine with 90% of it but my brain goes into meltdown on the Middle8. I can limp my way through but the alternating triads really make my head hurt trying to keep the feel and remembering the changes.
-
Wow!

Hopefully a quick one - can anyone identify this bass please?
AlexDelores replied to Minininjarob's topic in Bass Guitars
Very much like the band 👌 Cheers for that, they got me in through this mornings run 🙌
