I don’t know much about pino but I think the custom shop is based on a 62, I nearly bought one

Cool, I’ll check it out

Thanks Pow, it looks great

I’ve always liked those, I only use Ampeg myself, do they have a fan and and are they quiet for home use

Looks great, looking forward to seeing what you do

I’m listening to some Bitty McLean today, Robbie Shakespeare on bass

All time classic and a great Bassline to play , nice one

The serial number for a 79 would be on the headstock starting S9 , but it doesn’t look the right shape to me for a fender, I’m guessing the decal has been added

Listening to some Freddie McKay tonight, great riddim and dub at 3.18

Yeah, it just looks wrong to me, I’d steer clear myself

As I understand it all 70s precisions have the truss rod adjustment at the heel, the jazz had the bullet at the headstock, I haven’t got FB but it did let me see the picture briefly, hasn’t that one got 21 frets?

Great stuff, you can definitely go down a rabbit hole with Flabba, he’s played on so many tracks it’s unbelievable, there’s not many reggae artists that the Roots Radics haven’t backed at some time or other (especially Gregory Isaacs) , definitely in my top 3 favourite players, love a bit of Tubby too, one of the first albums I bought was King ,Tubbys Meets Rockers Uptown, and I think I’ve still got it somewhere , it’s great to give that a listen every now and again

Looks good, just wondering..have you got long arms 😁

For anyone who likes Jamerson you might enjoy this video, some nice playing and good info

Great one mcnach, a little claim to fame that I have is that I met jimmy and all the band at the after party at the O2, such a great bunch of guys and very humble , wonderful musicians

Great discovery Lozz, they are a very good band and have a certain style I’d say, you probably have heard some of their earlier stuff, they had an album out in around 78 called Handsworth Revolution which was pretty big, the bass player then was Ronald McQueen who Was quite a technical player I’d say, it’s worth a listen if you haven’t already, I like this track

Leonard Dillon off the One Step Forward album, I like the bass on this

Hi David and welcome, firstly I’d like to offer my condolences, I used to chat with your father often and I miss that greatly, unfortunately I’m in London so a bit far away to help you, but I’m sure someone here closer will be able to help, good luck David, Tony

I could see that working, as you say if it’s the right Allen key size and it’s cut in accurately

Great idea but I’ve never seen one, they are good my jazz elite has one

Wicked tune from Omar Perry, I’ll be playing this bassline later
