Total Watts

  1. And check out the cameo performance from Eric Clapton (alongside Albert Lee) at around the 30 minute mark of this. I think Chas and Dave were big mates with him
  2. Chas Hodges was a session bass player in the 1960s and played with Jerry Lee Lewis and Gene Vincent. He played in 'Heads Hands and Feet' with Albert Lee and almost ended up as the bass player of Deep Purple. You might also enjoy the words of this:
  3. I've had a D800+ as my workhorse amp for a number of years now. They are fantastic, on their own or I put a valve pre-amp on the front end for an extra vintage sound. I find the high pass filter really effective to tackle boom in different venues. The bag thing is annoying, but they are not much to shout about to be honest. Roqsolid would probably make one for c£50 which would be much better, or ask Bass Direct whether they have something in stock that would work. I would hold onto that amp. There are also a lot of lovers of Mesa here and they come up quite often.
  4. That's my old Amp! And you are right about how loud it is. I sometimes listen to my Mesa Boogies and wonder what I am missing (albeit my back doesn't). GLWTS it's a brute!
  5. I was going to put this on Bass Chat Cats, because my cat was ripping up my desk for 10 minutes of this. It was so out there it was brilliant. It makes Royal Blood look amateur.
  6. It's interesting what you say about your PEB. I have been told that the quality control there wasn't everything it should have been from time to time. Something you hear much more about CBS era Fenders, but not so much Musicman.
  7. Nice Bass. Can you remember the type of pickup you put on it? And did you mod the tone controls? Like the stickers too!
  8. I don't think I have ever seen Tim Lefebvre slap a bass in my life
  9. And in a 'Weightwatchers' special billing: Lards of the New Church supporting Fat Bot Slim
  10. Still from 'When the Levee Breaks, Playing for Change Vid. Stray Wallace Amp and owner found playing in Kew Gardens!
  11. I have the Noble (see above in the thread) but sadly not the B15 (or the 63 Precision!). I have to make do with a 77, which is lovely, but probably weighs twice as much.
