Reggaebass

Did you ever find out if it could be done 🙂

Nice one 👍, there’s quite a few versions out there and some played in different keys , I’m pretty sure the diamonds did the original

Sound like the mighty diamonds to me

Lovely 👍, and a nice tort, some of them I find a bit too bright

Not that I change mine very often but when I do ,I do them one at a time so the neck still keeps some tension

No it was the first one that came up on classic and cool 😁, is that a roasted maple neck, they are so nice

Let me guess, could it be something along the lines of a PJ limelight 🤔😁

That’s cool, I had to bend the bottom of my Hercules one in to fit because I couldn’t find one, I’ll get one of those 👍

Welcome Dave 👍

A bit more Norris Reid this morning , great Bassline

A friend of mine runs 2 big baby ll cabs from one amp successfully for big reggae gig’s, but I’m not sure what amp he’s using at the moment, I don’t think you need 2 amps

I’ve got 2 jazzes with daddario black tapes, really great strings, they are super smooth when played in

Welcome carol 👍 , it’s a friendly community here, if there’s any info you need to find out about your basses I’m sure someone here will be able to help 🙂

Can’t help you with the maths, I’ve got one bb ll , but 2 barefaced big baby’s is immense 👍

Yeah, that as well 👍😁

The wood ones definitely sound better

I’ve seen some really nice jazzes on there but never bought any, I think you still have to pay customs on top , one I was looking at had this in the description International Buyers - Please Note: Import duties. taxes. and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying

These are the ones I’ve always been advised to use, but I have also made my own in the joinery shop

Starting the day with some Norris Reid

Thanks, that makes sense 👍

How does adding a shim increase the break angle at the bridge, or am I reading this wrong 🙂

Nice sound on this Misty in Roots video, with the bass player using a Rickenbacker , you don’t see many reggae players using them

This came up on my YouTube, nice Basslines, gimme gimme gimme looks tricky

Definitely 😉
