Sounded good Tim 😎

Thanks mate, I'm not a great lead player but I like a melody

I did a bit of lockdown recording with my Peavey Foundation...

Multitrack Jive Bass.

Now on Bandcamp.

Used Bass Collection Power Bass.

Turned out to be rather a homage to the mighty Jeff Beck.

I've used picato, la bella and Rotosound, sonically picato flats are very thumpy in tone, closer to la bella. Rotos have more mids.

The choice is yours.

I had the single pickup model for a while, it misses the extra tonal range.

It's not pink, but I just picked this up used for £120 - if you know of a better jazz style bass for the money let me know.....

The Jive bass by B.C. really is wonderful value for money.

Drink on top of amp. Very smart.

Remember the Peavey Palladium (Jeff Berlin?) Lovely passive honker! 

Still on eBay £550.

That's a lot of American bass for the money!

I'll stick with my Ferrites though......

Lovely sunburst. Hindsight can be a cruel thing when you, regret letting something go only to want it back.

Yeah I could kick myself for selling this on... I felt at the time that I should have a Fender.... the Mex precision I ended up with sounded nowhere near as good.

I just found a picture of my old Foundation, greatly missed

Yes, my 80's Foundation was a better build - I loved the earlier bridges especially - it felt an altogether more solid bass.

Sound wise I'd say there's not too much between them.

Maybe the earlier bass had slightly more definition in the sound.

Over the years I've owned fury, foundation, patriot and T40 models....I'd say the foundation is the best sounding bass of them all.

I have an early 90's version at the moment, sounds like a jazz on steroids with the super ferrite pickups.

This is currently my fifth Peavey and is my bass for gigs.
