“Best singer in the business”  - according to Sinatra!

A great lifetime contribution. R.I.P.

I tend to hoard stuff on the premise that “it’ll come in useful someday”.

So I have amps in Class A/B, Class D, power-amps and separate pre’s.

My back tells me that a small pedal-board, IEMs and DI is the way to go for me………….but I do get nostalgic for trouser-flapping “heft”. 

Some party trick.

Video edit? No idea.

The pics say it all!
 

Amazing!

Apparently he learnt piano for a major film and is an accomplished guitar player and cello player as well. Some talent!

Thank you for sharing with us your fabulous instruments!
 

Fantastic!

More good taste, sir!
 

Wow……..a perfect vintage pair.

Any more lurking in the cupboards?

That’s a beauty!

……….unless you’re Del Boy! “play it cool, Trigger!”

I gave them a go……..and with a similar reaction as @meterman was impressed. Price/quality is OK. 
 

I put them on a “beater” instrument just for curiosity and they’re still on there and are holding up. Tension is fine.

Another suggestion for the OP if in the market for another bass………….is a NS Design Radius bass. By design, it is more ergonomic than flat-backed instruments. Need to like headless basses though.

Peterson Strobe stomp mini pedal when I use a pedal board.

I didn’t know that they made instruments. That’s a new learning for me!

Back in the day I had a Fenton Weill amp/combo though.

Crime of the Century is certainly my favourite album.

Mine too!!!

Didn’t Fender themselves dabble with this (S1 switch) in order to allow Jazz players to run the pups in series and attempt a more Precision-like sound? Seem to recall it was in  some mid 00’s instruments IIRC.

I’m favouring the P bass.

A true legend for me. I loved “Minder” theme tune.

Sad loss. R.I.P.

TC Unitune is great. Peterson strobe clip-on tuner is my favourite.

And take blooming ages to process, especially if based away from Blighty.

Ask me how I know!

Been looking at the Rolls PM351 as an alternative non-digital option to my current set up, what has your experience been like with it?

I have one as a back-up in case of problems with my wireless kit. It does not have a limiter though, so I always worry about noise spikes (feedback or dropped microphones) with IEM’s and serious ear damage as a result. The Rolls PM351 is otherwise a great piece of kit though.

Stunning!!

Amazing pieces of kit. I have one and have used it both in studio and live. It seems to add a little magic to any set up. Sounds immense.

GLWTS.

Yes. I had almost the same experience recently with the old Ace hit “How Long”. Dead simple and I just blanked when I approached playing it. Crazy!

We always carry our own extension leads and have a couple of RCD adapters if it's a venue we've not played at before or the sockets look dodgy

This ^^^^^^^^^

Absolutely normal to keep an eye on the site when on a trip. Why not?
