  1. The open E is not so much weak as missing that piano quality and overtones you get with a typical 34" scale. What you're getting is more fundamental in the place of those overtones. However, the pickup placement on the Musicmaster, Bronco and Mustang doesn't really lend itself to slap either, the position being a bit north of a P bass' pickup (in scale relative terms). The 'Ray SS is another story, however. Although you still get more fundamental, especially on the open E, there is more midrange snap and top end than on the Fender, single pickup offerings. Perhaps something with a J type pickup fitted might work better too, the Player series Mustang has one IIRC.
  2. Dreadful track that gets way more airplay than it deserves. In the context of the rest of Brothers in Arms, it smacks of filler. With regard to Oasis, I can’t stand them either, whining, style over substance to my ears. However, I could say much the same for the rest of the Britpop bands of the time. Others find that era and the bands involved, fabulous, I, on the other hand, think it’s where music went to die. They all made a fair few quid, so what do I know?
