Welcome Viper, great introduction 👍

I’ve been playing some sly and Robbie today, this is a great album and there’s some nice Basslines on it to play .this too with Linval Thompson

On strings direct ,if you look at the bridge description there’s a link for the screws which gives the size as 5 X 1"

Thanks, I don’t play with a pick so went finger style, it was quite a while back so I might have another go

That’s a great one, did you find it tricky to learn, I tried it but struggled up to speed

This has to be one of my favourite John Holt songs , originally written by Barry Gibb I believe And a bit of chronixx

Good one Ricky, I’ll check that out

Nice one 👍, it’s fairly straightforward and it’s got a great feel to it

Three Little Birds- Bob Marley is a nice one to play now and again, always brings a smile

😁, I had another set delivered after yours , so I might have to buy another bass now

I’ve just remembered that I’ve had a sat of Adagio flats on one of my jazzes for about 7 years, they are a really good string for the money

Aston Barrett Robbie Shakespeare Flabba Holt Leroy Sibbles Val Douglas Lloyd Parks Boris Gardiner Fully Fullwood Sean Hurley James Jamerson

Thanks for that one, I used to play that many years back , I must revisit it it’s a great Bassline, back in the Matumbi days , this one too

Thank you, Same for you too frank 👍

It’s a very good community in my opinion, I’ve met up with many people here, mainly when I’m parting with money for something 😁, and everyone of them have been great, I’ve a lot less on my ignore list than I used to and I think that’s because it’s so well moderated now (thanks mods 👍), I’m always chatting with someone by PM and I’ve received great advice and knowledge from many about things when I’ve asked, I’m not going anywhere so I’m afraid you’re stuck with me 😁

I’ve got fairly new TI’s on a precision, what difference would you say is between the new ones and the 15 year old ones

I dabble a bit with recording and quite surprised myself how well I managed it, I’ve got the new iPad Pro and was using GarageBand with an irig, but I upgraded to a focusrite solo which I found better quality, I tried other apps but GarageBand was easier for me to use ,and once I spent some time with it I soon had it working well

Where can you get this eucalyptus.. asking for a friend

Maybe try just changing the saddle screws first before changing the whole bridge, they might just be a bit loose

I hovered over will’s number quite a few times, was you the lucky buyer

For something different I’m gonna try to get this one down, this video by Bruno looks like a good place to start me going unless anyone has any other suggestions

Yeah I saw that this morning, I’m not surprised , wasn’t me 😁

I’ve been fortunate enough to get mostly what I like ,but I’d like to try some of the top end Fodera’s , just to see what they’re like, also a 1960 stack knob jazz

Oh my , Will has got a custom shop Pino Palladino Precision Bass Fiesta Red in, looks so nice but I’ve just bought another precision, I mustn’t look
