Here's a recent carol kaye facebook comment that may help you GEAR I'VE USED....over the years. Hello Martin, nice to hear from you and thank-you for your nice message. I've always played elec. bass with a HARD PICK, sort of tear-drop shaped pick on medium-gauge flatwound strings -- I only use the THOMASTIK JAZZ FLATWOUND strings which get that same sound and feel, only BETTER - these are fantastic long-life great-sounding flatwounds, the finest!

[quote name='derrenleepoole' timestamp='1324567060' post='1475701'] Running a band is as much a business as running a pub. End of. By all means work with venues to keep them sweet, but remind them that you're a business too and need to make money when you're not gracing their venue etc... [/quote] Believe me running a pub is in all ways much tougher than running a band - assuming we are talking non-pro, semi-pro type bands In todays tough economy I really feel for publicans - it must be so hard

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1324541543' post='1475280'] On the theatre / art centre / ticket venue circuit it's common. On the pub scene, less so... there's a couple of 'music' pubs up here that politely ask you not to play at the pub over the road for a while either side of playing there.

[quote name='mercuryl' timestamp='1324293046' post='1472543'] Think of the Precision as the Porsche 911 of basses. The 911 is THE iconic sports car. yeah, there are loads of "better" faster, better handling, high-techer cars out there. But the 911 is THE enduring sports car. Get one, you can't go wrong and everyone will nod with approval when they hear you have one. Fender Precision? In bass terms, it's the same thing. Can't go wrong and most everyone will nod with approval at your proper bass. [/quote] being the owner of precisions and a 911, i can confirm that your analogy is spot on and well observed

[quote name='mercuryl' timestamp='1324309482' post='1472844'] I'm fairly sure that's not Olympic White. It's "Vintage White" isn't? Beautiful bass though. Love the neck. [/quote] thanks for that

[/quote] thanx [quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1324297937' post='1472634'] Musicman's sunburst is absolutely stunning, as proved here!
