Could be worse, could be a drummer (only kidding Douglas 😁)

Pretty much identical road wear on it

Looks legit to me,

They fix with double sided tape, I originally had it on one of my jazzes and it came off with no damage, but I wouldn’t trust that to happen to one with a nitro finish

Very true, and they don’t come up for sale very often either

Yeah, that’s the one I’ve got 👍

I’ve got a bassmute fitted on one of my precisions, they are great, easy and quick to click on, but they are expensive, I also use foam, and I’ve never used one but I’ve heard these are good

Whiteish, my 2014 US jazz

I’d be very interested in seeing how this is done 👍

Great thread Andy, I’m a joiner and out of interest, is that normal build practice to use a scarf joint on a guitar neck/headstock

What’s the extra string on the body for I wonder

Superb tune PJ☝️, the intro of the Bassline in loafer always reminds me of this

Barrington levy day today

There’s some great contributions here and some great players, get your Goth thread going ☝️

Lots of the early reggae and dub vinyl is really collectible now, and popular in the us

Oh that’s cool, I didn’t know 👍, there’s some really great tracks here and somewhere, @Mykesbass has kindly put together a Spotify list , I’ll try and find it

I’ve still got my vinyl going back to around 1977, it’s stored in my loft but I do bust it out now and again, I used to buy from , daddy kool record shop and red records in Brixton 🙂

Just thought I’d share this early track by Max Romeo , posted in another thread by @ProfJames, old time classic

This is my favourite max Romeo track, it’s from the , War ina Babylon album 1976, and the first one is with tiken Jah fakoly, with Robbie on bass, it’s a great one to play

The racing stripe looks great with the pickup covers

Great picture dov, what a cutie 😊

Yeah it’s got a great feel to this one Dave , It’s not technically difficult but nailing those little fills is Tricky 🙂

I’ve got a few days off for Easter so I’m going to work on this, I’ve got the basic Bassline together , but as usual Robbie Shakespeare adds little changes and fills throughout the song, I’m having a bit of trouble breaking a few of them down, so I’ll be working on them, I normally slow the track down and listen very closely for the notes, for example at 0.25 and 0.37, ( probably a separate question but is it the end of bar 4 or 7 he changes the fill if I’m counting that he varies it ?

Welcome Ben 👍
