...combine it with the same amp that Jason Newsted used on "And justice for all" and you're set for stadium rock heaven : )

I converted to BBC6 around 2010 purely by chance...Unthinkable now but at the time the station was facing potential shutdown. Personal faves are Mary Anne Hobbs, Iggy Pop on Sunday and for both tunes and banter Radcliffe and Maconie....Crisps on the Radio...pure genius

Yep, More of the "must get on well with people" thing. The one year that I was "pro" was spent on cruise ships in a 4 piece party band. Out of that year we were at sea for 11 months...and had one day off in that 11 months. We spent a massive amount of time in one another's company so it was best for everybody that a nice happy conducive vibe was a given because there weren't too many places to run to : )

Had one for a while....great for the money, however anyone interested might want to check on the weight as mine was a backbreaker : )

Hohner Jack Bass...Yeah I bet everyone on the forum was expecting that next : ) When i started on bass in 1990 these basses were everywhere...and at the time being a 15 year old with dreams of being the next Lemmy, they didn't really get a second look. Fast forward to 2021 and wanting something compact to fit into my locker at work and finding short scale basses not to my liking I took the plunge....what an overlooked jem! full scale neck, shorter than the short scale, super resonant, comfy like a stinky old pair of trainers...goes on holiday with me much to everyone elses annoyance...and good enough to gig : )

I've got through the first two tracks...Ok so the overall sound is (in my limited perception) more open and clear...and possibly harder in the midrange? However the mix on Dogs seems to have been very hard on Richard Wright as the keys are considerably quieter....between the two mixes compare the little motif at around 1:30 in Dogs immediatley after Dave says "easy smile"...it's almost inaudible compared to the old mix : (

This can happen on any bass it seems. My USA G&L SB-2 has this issue....weirdly it seems to be far worse in the summer and screws have worked themselves loose about 20 mins into the gig (I'm in Cambridgeshire...not exactly tropical) I use clear nail lacquer instead of locktite.

Went to Cambridge Junction on Monday...Saw Thee Oh Sees for the third time. Quite possibly a band I could see every week and not get bored of : )

Me and my very tolerant lady are off to Desertfest on the Saturday...going to see Low in Hackney the night before...quite a contrast, just not in tempo : )
