Ronnie Wood played on a few Stones tracks I think, I'm pretty sure it's him on Emotional Rescue.. And I also prefer Keith Richards bass line on Yer Blues too (ducks for cover)

I don't know if anyone has seen this on FB, but Wayne from Limehouse Lizzy has had his Stingray Stealth nicked after a gig in Wokingham. There's more info from their post below and I've copied it from FB incase people don't have FB profiles. Hopefully we can get it back to him! https://www.facebook.com/100044179129040/posts/405464200936214/ Pls SHARE/RT! On July 17th we played the Marvellous Festival in Wokingham. A week after returning we opened up our van to find that Wayne’s bass guitar - a #MusicMan ‘Stealth’ - was missing. 🎸 The bass is both very distinctive looking and also very rare in the UK. Everything on it is black - the chromework, neck, even the mirror scratch plate is smoked black. It also has been retro-fitted with an Aguilar bridge pickup, which bears the name in white script on the pickup cover. 🎸 There’s also substantial wear on the front lower body where stage jewellery has battered into into it, leaving big dents. 🎸 The serial number is E93826. 🎸 We’ve waited this long in the hope that goodwill amongst the music community would yield a positive result. Sadly however, we’ve now had to conclude that the matter has gone beyond this. 🎸 Anything at all that could lead to its recovery would be so enormously appreciated, especially as MusicMan have stopped making them. Feel free to contact us by Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or even leave a message on limehouselizzy.com (click each for links or email us at [email protected]). 🎸 Wayne has also said he's happy to provide a reward for the return of or information leading to the return of the bass. 🎸 Many thanks.

There's an aux in on the zoom, so I just use a 3.5mm jack to connect it to my laptop and we're away 😊

Well, you've got a suped up, aggressive, P.........I guess that means you need a fat sounding one with flats too? 😜

I just picked up some Ernie Ball Everlasts and I like em. They're a bit like the Dunlop tortex, but more matt in their texture, so I prefer the grip. I also really like the Clayton Metallics copper and Dunlop Teckpick brass picks too, they sound really aggy.......but unfortunately leave your bass covered in bits of metal 😂

Very nice, I bet it has a lovely thump to it

There's something cool about Guild basses, I really like the Jet Star too. Kinda looks like a thunderbird has been left out in the sun all day, or is drunk.

I love the guitar version of this, maybe because of the Kim Thayl/Soundgarden connection, and have never seen its 4 string brother turn up......until now. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294279908292?hash=item4484730bc4:g:TnIAAOSwJuBg8quB It just ooozes cool!

Yet another happy customer! Bought a loom off John for my Jazz - VVT with series/parallel and tone bypass, it's transformed my bass into a monster! Top notch workmanship, super quick delivery and John was super helpful with all my questions. Thanks again for everything!

I thought we were an anarcho syndicalist commune?

I think it only happens if I haven't been on the site for a while, I've tried to recreate it a few times since posting and its working OK for me. Let me know if you want any deets on operating system etc

Heya, This doesn't happen all the time. But, occasionally, when I'm on my mobile and click on the menu icon, it only expands out about as far as 'signed' in 'signed in as' and then I have to scroll across to see the full menu. I'm browsing on a Google Pixel 5 & using Chrome. I'll nab a screen grab next time it happens.

How about G&L? If you went with their tribute range then the LB100 already has the hi mass bridge, or the SB2 for the hi mass bridge & US pups, but in a PJ configuration. Or go full fat US LB100 or SB1. They're generally cheaper than their Fender counterparts and the quality is right up there.

Sounds terrible and I think you should get rid of it. Being the charitable gentleman that I am, I could be convinced to give it a good home. As a favour, of course 😁

RIP Dusty. Such a shame to lose him at no age at all. The house band upstairs just got a lot more thump added to it 😔

Niiiiice. I really dig these and they've got so many cool little touches about them. Have fun with it!

I know, you're supposed to spend the majority of your time lusting over new gear instead of actually playing what you have 🙄😂

He's only got 4 basses.........? Sounds like he needs to join up here 😂

Don't blame me when you end up buying another bass 😂 They are lovely though and if you ever find yourself in North London then you're more than welcome to have a go in mine to see how you get on with it.

I'm the same and don't normally get on with P necks, at least I didn't until I found one that was 40mm and fairly slim back to front. From the sounds of things you'd also like the necks on the Japanese PB 70's 😊

Absolutely gorgeous, glad you're happy with it!!

I use stainless steel rotosound swing bass 50-110 for drop C. There is that drop in tension, but I don't find the low C too floppy, personally. But then again, I use roto's for all my roundwound needs, so am slightly bias!

"David and Nigel are like poets, you know, like Shelley or Byron, or people like that. The two totally distinct types of visionaries, it’s like fire and ice, and I feel my role in the band is to be kind of the middle of that, kind of like lukewarm water."
