I let him know it's not a Stingray Special with the 18v preamp and neodymium pickups as per his ad wording and he thanked me and said he'd amend it. This was a few weeks back and it still has the wrong description showing. Hopefully it doesn't get bought by someone unfamiliar with the differences. The price is a bit different to when it was on here. I only twigged it was the same bass today. -
Ah I've just seen it as well. The new seller has been discussed on here quite a bit.

Actually wait for me,the GPS on this thread is playing up 😂

Nighty night 🤣

Despite the thread title the question was actually whether an "irreplaceable" instrument would be used in a pub.
-
I literally do this on a daily basis 👍
-
Playing bass for me is primarily about developing a bond between myself and the instrument and that then influences the "secondary" aspect of playing with others as I feel it makes me more useful hopefully. That means I'll happily play just because a bass is there as it puts me in a happy place. I wasn't actually shocked at all,it was meant as a joke.

Unless the venue has a rig that's arguably "better" than yours. This thread isn't about amps but I had that happen to me some years back 😄

The title is asking about taking a best bass on a gig but you're specifically asking about pub gigs. I answered based on the latter as I use my favourite in church all the time 👍 None of my basses are "housebound" in that sense.
-
Of the 3 basses I own I would hesitate to use my favourite one on a pub gig. Why? Because like a child and some Lego I'm embarrassingly attached to it. One day I'll grow up and get over it 😂
-
Ah you have the Bb (flat 7th) instead of the 5th at the ends. I think I have to agree with you on that.
-
I would say you've pretty much nailed this. I'm away from my bass right now but I would say the only thing to check is the last note of the bridge. I had that as a chromatic walk up from G to Ab(G#) which is the 5th of the new key of C#. Try playing it instead of the C# to see what I mean and report back? Bear in mind I'd never heard of this song before your post. It's that half step movement that "announces" the new key is coming.
-
Okay cool. I never once referred to a scale however. Your GPT post starts by saying it's in C Minor and the OP found it helpful.
-
Start by familiarising yourself with the intro verse and choruses before the bridge. Two bars of C one bar of F and last bar Ab and G.Or the 1 to the 4 and then the 6 to the 5 in C Minor. The 4 6 5 movement repeats before the 1st and 2nd chorus chant and the bridge section. Edited 10 hours ago by Terry M. Yes this is what I said originally. No mention of 5 to 6.
