Old people!!

Yes indeedy! I love my BBG4AII from waaay back, and cant be doing with these oddly shaped BB’s everyone is obsessed with. Even though I used to have one.

Very smart looking bass. Definitely an upgrade on its more agricultural progenitor.

PS Keith Carlock is a monster on drums, pushes the whole thing along like a train. You will not be disappointed.

I freakin love Steely Dan. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. In fact, I just did. I realise everything I know and prize about music came through their filter. As a guitar player I endlessly copped licks and feel, and ditto as a bass player. Their sense of rhythm and timing is impeccable, methinks IMHO YMMV. What bugs me is that I have not been able to hear the bass player at any of their gigs I have attended. Admittedly all in barns like NEC, O2 etc. Shame. I hope you guys get to hear Freddie when you go to see SD this time!

Just play with it. You’ll come up with your own stuff in no time.

Hatsover?? I meant whatsoever. As you were.

I am finding the Zoom is replacing the separate boxes I normally use, which are various compressors, mainly. So I have a few separate patches, not more than three, for funk, straight with chorus, and fretless. I tried it in the loop of my Markbass CMD102, but it was overdriven very easily by the preamp, and sounded crap. So now it's straight into the front of the amp, and no problems hatsoever.

Looks like they're off to a good start: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2019/feb/21/steely-dan-review-sse-hydro-glasgow

Headstock needs curves. Deffo.

Jam Man will let you do that. See what switch Nux recommends in the manual. I have a Digitech FS3X which works with some other devices, like TCE BG amps.

Toothpaste will sometimes remove dark marks in wood. But I reckon you’re just going to have to sand it out, since your going to refinish the body anyways.

Nice selection!

I like it. Perhaps because he grooves like a mutha on it.

Interesting! How does it sound?

That G tuner, you could have taken it apart and flipped the tuner peg over, to make like an MM tuner.
