Love the G&L. Blue

Some of us here started playing 50 years before the internet. Lol Blue

How about this one: " What amp should I buy?" Blue

Yes, while the extra money is crucial a gig is always going to be fun. Even the bad gigs. Having an extra $400.00 -$ 500.00 after a weekend is fun too. Daryl

Very nice!

Dave, I keep my Line 6 G50 transmitter in my front pocket . I have the strap clips, maybe I should switch over to clipping it to my strap? Daryl

I remember the old days, back in the 60s. All we had was volume, bass and treble. Blue

If you follow my posts, you know I'm not a " I'm not in it for the money" guy. Far from it. I need this extra money. I'm stashing away all my gig money to pay my annual property taxes. I've had gigs that I wasn't looking forward to. They become a "get out and go get that money" proposition only. Sad but true. Blue

Here's a better video of Tennessee Whiskey. I hope this isn't a duplicate posting https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0A7vcWBLR8RgevNBYZGiPNivGmXbeW5aCWTEo7mJNoUwmASPwX8VN4CzYtccFo6h5l&id=1470144703&mibextid=Nif5oz Daryl

Very nice. I've been playing wireless for the past 12 years. Wouldn't have it any other way. I'm not going to venture out into the audience like some guys, however I like the freedom wireless gives you. Daryl

And guess what, the weather changed for the better the day of the gig. This is what we looked like inside. Not too bad. Daryl

Love this clip. Great tone and great chops. Dave, you're really cutting through. Are you direct out and what amp are you using? Daryl

Yeah, for most gigs it's either my ASAT or my 2005 MIJ 1951 Fender P reissue. Daryl

That's my new girlfriend. And that is my smile . Lol🙂 Daryl

Out of all the obstacles we all face I think poor turn out is the hardest to deal with. It is for me. Blue

Dave, I believe mine is a 1993 American build Dave. It was around $900.0 used. I bought it at least 12 years ago. Daryl

Thanks again Dave, What I hear onstage is completely different than what I hear in the video. I'm not sure what Fullerton is. Daryl

Thanks Dave, Here's the " No Diggity Clip" from last night. Lots of guitar https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02N9EHNX93ezEbN7SXGXeS2W41yrrSu5Yc1czF1DiZta4eJSH4M2TwpKAjYWrPybh1l&id=1470144703&mibextid=Nif5oz Daryl

The gig turned out to be a lot of fun. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=862602832054443&id=100001681941959&mibextid=Nif5oz I'll add another full song clip later tonight. Blue

I'd be afraid to ship a bass guitar unless I had a foam injection machine. Blue

I have just about everything set at the mid point or 12 noon. Blue

Like I said I struggle with it too. I think every band handles communications differently. Some of these guys on Bass Chat are playing with life long mates /friends. We're friendly to each other but not friends in the traditional sense. And I've been in the band since 2009 One thing about us, while there's not much communication there's also absolutely no drama or tension between members. Daryl

I'd never quit on my own. If Maple Road ever folded, I'd never be able to find another gigging band that would be a match for me. Blue

A drummer friend of mine spent 8 months putting together a cracking " oldies" band. At the last minute the bass player " flaked" out and bailed on them. They were too bummed and exhausted to look for a bass new player and gave up. I can't say I blame them. Blue
