  1. A Bassline I struggled with for a long time is this, it’s not technically hard but I couldn’t get the timing changes, I broke it down into sections and note by note each day, but still made mistakes, then I left it a few weeks and came back to it and played it spot on. Having a break works well for me. I also find listening to the song while I’m driving helps to memorise the bass.
  2. Hi Jon , and welcome 👍
  3. When I sprayed one of my headstocks black I had a bit of trouble fitting the Ferrule, so I gently sanded the inside of the hole so it wasn’t so tight .
  4. Yeah I noticed that, it looks like they’ve run it parallel to the long edges, thats looking great already rich 👍
  5. Going by my first real set up , around 1979, which was a HHic100s and 2x15 speakers , which I think I paid about £200 for second hand at the time, I’d say the Peavey rig would be between £400- £500 🙂
  6. Crusin through Loughton listening to Ruddy Thomas
  7. I saw this one a while back, it looks pretty good
  8. Sounds good rich, I’ve done a few re finishes with spray cans and they can come out really nice, I look forward to following this☝️
  9. There was , it was at the top near the new kings road , I used to live opposite it, I think it closed down about 1985.
  10. While we’re talking colour blues, another jazz I looked at was ocean turquoise , it looked pretty blue to me , it was really nice , here’s one
  11. Nice funky Bassline on this from around 1981 ☝️
  12. Ebony fingerboards , and dark boards, especially when they are nicely played in .
  13. Here’s a cady deville in Candy Apple red 🙂
  14. I’ve noticed that too, I really don’t need one but I’ve started watching the bigger Ampeg amp’s , which editions are all valve ?
  15. I’m fairly sure they don’t do 5 strings, I remember a few people asking a long time ago 🙂
  16. I’d say that the left one is ice blue
  17. I’d like a bass the same colour as the slippers actually 🙂
  18. I remember nearly buying this , which looks like the one on the left because I questioned the colour and was told it was ice blue
  19. I really like that Bassline Beedster, is that just from that video or is it from a song 🙂
  20. Yeah I think they should, it’s quite important as it’s not all original.
  21. Thanks jazzj, I’m still looking but there’s none near me at the moment, there’s a few newer ones but I like the older ones, there’s one on eBay I quite like the look of but it’s too far 🙂
  22. A few Sunday morning Marley tunes with a great Basslines that Robbie Shakespeare played and not Aston Barrett and
  23. What a great cover, and those ghost notes really give it a nice groove ☝️ I also like her cover of forget me nots .
  24. If the screw rings off and doesn’t tighten just put a cocktail stick in the hole for extra grip 🙂
  25. His shows on radio 1xtra are good , there’s one tomorrow at 17.00 , new and classic reggae .
