I have an Antiquity 335 which is very good. Not a Chibson but similar on the price. The Firefly 335 gets great reviews too.

The Haynes Manual for Fender Bass is also good.

Not even if you Caine them! 😄

About 75% originals and without any agent at present.

My band could really do with a decent agent that can access Europe as well as the UK. We do ok but want to get out and about again.

Precision. Flats. Tone control only just on. Valve preamp, gain at 1 o'clock. Slightly more bass than middle and slightly more mid than treble. Pair of 15s. To my ears, a nice big, fat sound with a good deal of heft but good definition.

Although a Precision player, I would suggest MIJ for the consistent and excellent build quality, both of which represent terrific value for money. I have no doubt Jazz basses are just the same.

Nice one, centurion!

I went for the TS312s on foh and 310s for monitoring. On larger gigs we add a 312s sub.

Another brilliant evening with the XR18 and Altos. The sound is just so clear, and fine tuning for the room is such a doddle. So glad I made the (modest) investment.

Close to Brooklands. It always looks so evocative, driving past the old banking from the race track. You can practically see an old blower Bentley tearing round there.

No matter the price point. It does seem so odd (to me) that someone would put those two bits together and think it looked ok.

I'm going to say bridge height.

You place it over the bridge of your nose to give the impression a solid piece has embedded itself in you. You will also require tomato sauce.
