Reggaebass

A bit of Al Campbell

Listening to the gladiators album , Dreadlocks the time is now ,today and Soul Rebel is one of my favourite tracks from the album, great Bassline .

Olympic white and shell pink for me 👍

Welcome psy 👍

Welcome Szymbrush 👍

I suppose I should have but I’ve never heard anything by him before, that’s mighty impressive

Not sure, I haven’t added anything to my basket yet 🙂

There’s a really nice 68 jazz on there at the moment ,and the thing I also like about the site is they offer to setup the basses for you . A professional setup will be carried out on this bass, we would like to offer you a free personalised setup upon purchase. Please just let us know your preferences and we can get the bass right for you, including a new set of strings.

I’m playing some willi Williams today

I left school in 1980 ,and most people I hear saying the music then wasn’t good were people who weren’t there, there was lots going on in many different genres and lots of new bands about, for me it was the best time to be around, certainly in the reggae world

Yes quite a few, one I’m glad I did buy was my Hohner B2A, it’s a great bass and it has a different feel to everything else I’ve got, it’s quite a powerful thing in active mode

Never seen one of those before, very cool 👍

Cruising through Woodford listening to this

Don’t know them, and they’ve never come up in any of my searches

Alton Ellis 1968

Great thread, my bass tutor long time back in the day was a blues player, so I started out playing it, if I feel like some laid back tracks I normally play along to these .

Dennis Bovell, silly dub

Don’t know how you got on b5 , but there’s a nice 75RI here accepting offers, nothing to do with me 🙂 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-Jazz-75-Vintage-Reissue-Bass-Made-In-USA-2002-/265665799556?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

Would I replace a stock bridge on a 70s P for a Kickass type bridge ?, No never, I would definitely leave the original one on, I’ve switched the bridges about on a few of my jazzes ,but that was because I like the look of the threaded saddle type, and I can’t say I noticed any difference in the sound

Definitely the shirt

Really enjoying what Willi Williams has been putting out , great vocals

Lovely tone ped 👍

Jungle is massive, I think I wore that cd out in 94 ☝️
