  9. Welcome Paul, From Cockney boy now living in Canvey. Garry
  10. Both... The options for work will be greater. Also when reading you really do need to listen to the other players. It helps so you are all phrasing together. Garry

  12. [quote name='bluesparky' post='349063' date='Dec 8 2008, 09:07 PM']Yeah, i noticed that too, one of his fills is exactly like it. [/quote] Why dont we do something different and start a poll.. Jaco quote yes or no... Garry
  13. [quote name='SJA' post='348987' date='Dec 8 2008, 08:11 PM']the bit where it goes to Db is a lot like the opening phrase of Jaco's Teentown.[/quote] I was thinking of the chorus on 'Come on over' [Jaco solo album, the track with Sam & Dave on Vox] Garry
  14. [quote name='thepurpleblob' post='348960' date='Dec 8 2008, 07:42 PM']What's an NE worth do you recon? A bit of cash adjustment either way is perfectly possible. I don't see much more than 800 quid in the Yammie but it neither here nor there unless someone out there wants rid Just an idea, I'm just open to offers if someone can use a MM4[/quote] It depends on which model you are talking about. There are 2. The cheaper one comes in just under a grand. [url="http://av.uk.freeads.net/music/studio_+_band_equipment/Yamaha.+Nathan+East+Signature+Model+The+Nathan-178728.htm"]http://av.uk.freeads.net/music/studio_+_ba...than-178728.htm[/url] The dogs one around £1700.00. [url="http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Yamaha-BBNE2,-Gloss-White~ID~3446.asp"]http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Y...ite~ID~3446.asp[/url] So if you are talking about the cheaper one... You might be lucky and someone will take you on. Garry
  15. [quote name='thepurpleblob' post='348686' date='Dec 8 2008, 03:03 PM']I'd happily look at something like a Yamaha Nathan East[/quote] Have i got this right ? You want to swap a MM4 for a Nate East Yammy 5 string? Or is there cash involved? Just curious... Or has the market gone f@8k off tits up.. Garry
  16. [quote name='zigmondo' post='348926' date='Dec 8 2008, 06:56 PM']I can also say that the bassline is not original and is from a song of around 15-20 years earlier...blowed if I know which one though! S' OK: hose me down in napalm if I'm in error. [/quote] Also in the main riff, when it goes to the Db bit... Its a Jaco quote... And again...Blowed if i know which one though... Garry
  17. Toy Story meets Pulp Fiction. A mash up and half. Garry
  18. Phill allgaps.. There is a couple of more places he missed, where he could have put fills. Nice tone though. Garry
  19. [quote name='thepurpleblob' post='348466' date='Dec 8 2008, 11:51 AM']TRB-5p is still made. Don't forget that's the very fancy through neck one.... They're heavy money.... [url="http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Yamaha-TRB5PII~ID~2922.asp"]http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Y...PII~ID~2922.asp[/url] The older ones are very well regarded and should still fetch some proper money I would think.[/quote] You beat me to it..... If Trev does a deal for one of them [ Swap ] I think the boys done well.... Great Basses. Garry
  20. I Like Both... And Humbuckers that can be split See my Avatar... That gives it away i guess. Garry
  21. yo Trevor... Good speaking to you over the weekend.. You been sniffing glue pal..? Garry
  22. Another one here for same position for sitting or standing. Sort of in the middle really. You will be able to see for yourself today at 4.50 pm. On BBC Songs of praise. Doing a 2 song mime for Cliff Richard... Garry
  23. [quote name='stevie' post='346439' date='Dec 5 2008, 02:18 PM']The Louis Bellson book is also supposed to be good for practicing rhythm reading. I'm about to start going through it myself. [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0769233775/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&seller="]http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0769233...me=&seller=[/url][/quote] +1 on this book. My very first Bass Tutor [ Joe Muddel ] pushed me all the way with the Belson book. It all fell into place. Garry
