My sire jazz sounds huge even in passive mode, and even with a hefty dose of back pickup mixed in. perhaps it’s because I run it through the ampeg modelling on my ancient zoom b2?

I already did so on your behalf the egg whisk was a surprise …

Sounds like theyre worth every penny of the inflated price 👍

It’s a sleeping guitarist who hasn’t been sheared yet this week …shhh! You’ll wake him and we’ll be “treated” to endless blues rambling 🤨 best let sleeping trogs lie 🤫

Though waiting for @prowla to rationalise a few unrationialisable things may need a bit longer 😝

Just the five minutes …

Yes, we are sadists

Possibly it happened enough that he came up on their radar ?

That’s what he called himself, wasn’t it? if my name was David, and I preferred Dave, I’d get quite ticked off either way someone relentlessly referring to me as David this is of course ignoring the fact that Jaco is dead and thus unlikely to express an opinion through conventional channels

He says so, see “use his own cab”

Any tort is better than no tort

@Mediocre Polymath I think white might work better - can you do a “dry” side by side photo of black and white ?

90 minutes ? luxury! I’m lucky to get that in a month … which explains my attainment level do it until your attention wanders

Or maybe I won’t 😎 I feel a “dusty end” root node walk coming on for the interlude

Went surprisingly well for the first two. Crowd went nuts. To my huge embarrassment not done the latter two yet

As long as it fits your hands. There’s nothing worse than fighting with a instrument

FTFY however Two out of three ain’t bad, as meatloaf pointed out there’s a mistake in the bible. Loaves, fishes and sheets of tortoiseshell. Maybe they ran out of ink or forgot to write it in. Tortoiseshell is plainly the stuff of miracles.

Not broke? Don’t fix it

It is, but be aware that EW probably means extra wide. Unless you have big hands, I would advise caution I’ve had an extra wide Yamaha and it was painful to play after just a few minutes - I have medium large hands, bigger than average but I still struggled with the wide spacing I looked at a picture of a TRBX174EW and they look pretty wide to me

I’m not sure that is true. I’ve honestly never played a squier that wasn’t worth at least the asking price and probably more I’m with @Terry M. on this one, it’s much more a fender problem and more US than Mex these days.

Theres nothing worse than learning beginner bad habits by trying to figure it out yourself and making your bass life so hard that you end up with hand or shoulder pain, or just as bad, discouraged I wish I’d had an early lesson or two

There is no set amount of time, or even rule of thumb. Natural talent takes you further and in less time. Those less blessed (me) need to practice things till you can’t get them wrong. I’d suggest a teacher to help you over the rocky bits

Welcome, at 50 or so you’re a junior around here. Isn’t Glossop “league of gentlemen” territory ?
