I'm fortunate enough to have a man-cave/studio/office daaaaaaaaaan the bottom of the garden, so naturally have rammed it fully of crap. Does mean that I can blast through the Marshall VBA at full volume or smash the drums to pieces without anyone hearing/caring! 

 

Usually though, it'll be an ACG 6 of some sort through a Helix and into an Epifini UL901 and Bergantino 410. 👍 

 

 

Holy French connection uk …

spoiled by the toy basses though

I’m guessing the shower is for washing away your sins after playing electric guitar? 😁

It’ll take more than water… 

fire perhaps, or tar and feathers 

Is that William wragg? 

Placeholder pics are fine, it’s picture deprivation that I just cannot stand 

Is it transparent?  😛

Try turmeric extract with black pepper (aka circumin) and ginger 

takes about a month to feel a difference

Summer of '69 - Bryan Adams Bryan, you were 9 years old in the summer of '69. There's no way you played until your fingers bled.

It’s er… not about 1969 the year …

The bass in your example is a Stingray Shortscale though 

She’s only young… I think she did brilliantly

Good call, I wasn't aware of that but 42mm might indeed be hefty for an 8 year old! 

I’ve seen a very petite lady playing a full sized p bass and doing it very well; it can be done 

this was Enid from girl school and also maggie from fuzz box 

🧟‍♂️ 🧵

I just sell them. Exception one bass that partner bought for me. It is currently the only bass that I have and would be the last to go even if it wasn’t

Has to be one of the easiest tunes to figure ever. Try and hear the progressions. Whilst its imperative to read notation its also good practise to train ur ears to catch stuff like this. 

Sadly I am time and talent poor 

thanks for the judgment though 😕

Well someone got a bargain!

 

I gigged one of these once (borrowed bass for a late gig) and didn't rate it much but a tenner is a tenner!

That’s the passive one, my active one is top notch (4 knob) 

I have one, it’s awesome

never even once owned by @AndyTravis   😛

Thanks But I asked for tab? YouTube I can find 

I think it’s in B? Not found anything suitable on the usual sites 
 

thanks

Spell bass without a B you cannot. 

Is yoda a member on here? 🧐

you can drop the B but then it spells “guitarist” 

@ped please lock my thread. It has become an argument-a-thon.

Just in case anyone else doesn’t notice, my post was written in jest! FWIW though I don’t think even Jamerson enjoyed the music he was playing on. It sounds like he was much happier in a jazz club after a days sessions.

You probably needed an emoticon there. judging by responses I’m not the only one to have read you as serious 
 

I do agree with your second statement 

DOH… I’m so sorry. Trace Elliot elf would be my choice 

Ampeg ba108

it does everything, including being cheaper than chips

Mick Karn.

Crap intonation, weird slidey 'bwarp' noises. Sounds like someone didn't learn how to play fretless properly.

He’s still 56.8 million times better at bass, and 96 thousand times more successful than me

There is a parallel universe where I’m that good at inventing stuff and I’m that good at playing music (its not in-the-pocket bass but you cannot deny his musical talent)

Just my own opinion, but isn’t Mr Berthould, genius technician as he may be, a self-promoting PITA and the antithesis of what bands actually need in a bass player?

You mean he is a guitard?
