I’m looking at one of these as there’s a new edition out now and the original mini is reduced in price. I’m not really looking to program stuff, just to have a decent beat for practice and possibly use as a basic backing for recording with some fills & transitions.

Going Out Of My Head - Dionne Warwick

Friday on My Mind - The Easybeats & others

There’s a picture of someone playing a guitar on our hallowed forum. Quick! Fetch the pitchforks and blazing torches.

New Moon On Monday - Duran Duran

Perry Mason - Ozzy

Although, the collectible description covers the JV Squier question.

Looking For Clues - Robert Palmer

Wake Me Up When September Ends - Green Day

Island in the Sun - Weezer

I didn’t find them any different from D’Addario EXLs in the same gauge when I changed over IIRC. I certainly don’t remember having to adjust the truss rod at all.

Reggae Got Soul - Toots & the Maytals

Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head - Bacharach/David

Heartbreak Hotel - Elvis (You’ll need to be of a particular vintage to see the connection).

Roundabout - Yes

Return to Sender - Elvis P

I used to use Softys and eventually wore them out. I have stated earlier that I dislike ladder adjustments. However, I see that the Fab Softy features this dubious adjustment, but with a buckle adjustment at the other end. Ooh! Colour me intrigued.

“It was a bargain, I couldn’t leave it there.” The spirit of my late mum lives on. 😂

I previously posted that my playing hadn’t improved and may have even taken a retrograde step. However, this has all changed. Since recently taking delivery of a new short scale bass (a JMJ Mustang) I’ve been playing way more and I think my chops have never been better. I don’t think it’s just a matter of playing more (although this is certainly a factor) but also taking to the new scale like a duck to water. This could well be the way of the future for me scale wise.
