    ...and thank you @Sonic_Groovealso for the correction... And I didn't know that was Lee Sklar on it, alright.

    No problem we are all here to learn. I get stuff mixed up all the time! It is easy to confuse/mix Herbie's Chameleon with Stratus both the same year & both from the same Jazz Fusion/Miles Davis background

    The bassline from 'Spectrum', by Herbie Hancock. That's a pretty cool steal.

    It is actually "Stratus" from Bill Cobham's "Spectrum". Bass by Leland Sklar. Here He is doing a play over (Sorry to Derail the Reggae RB)

    Massive Attack sampled Stratus. Dug Wimbish played it on the Horace Andy Album

    So Stanley owns a Marcus sig, interesting 🤔

    He apparently used it too on His Album The Message (Track: Last Train To Sanity) according to the 2015 article from Bass Player (From which that pic came)

    Edit to say: I think that Album is actually called Up in the UK

    The whole of South Shropshire/North Herefordshire is absolutely dire in terms of thriving musical scenes...

    This is so sad. I lived & played, in many bands there in the late 80s through the 90s. All the places You mention had many venues & pubs with music! At least 5 or 6 in Ludlow (Bull, George, Assembly rooms, etc. & 4 or so in "The Castle" (Grapes, Castle Hotel, 3 Tuns, Vaults, etc. And places around like Knighton, Clun, Leominster, Hereford all had pubs & clubs with gigs. And Olivers in Shrewsbury had Bands most nights! 😢 Real Sad.

    Start from new stainless steel strings,

    This + 1 & that is where the "Mega Bucks" come in. New means brand new sparkling need to change them very regularly, Mark (sponsored string deal) used to swap basses (with new strings) mid-gig because the sound had gone off !!!

    From bitter experience it is a very expensive sound to chase!

    Any of the lighter gauges will do (40 to 100 last a little longer but not much!!!)
