I've played Knebworth. A few years ago, Knebworth House, one of the Barns, great gig.

Playing bass is what I do. Playing in a good band to an enthusiastic audience is the biggest buzz I've discovered so far. That never gets old. Even playing in an average band to 3 men and a dog is pretty OK, as long as I'm with a good drummer. You don't retire, you stop when the phone stops ringing.

Beautiful bass. How light? -
Utterly mad. . . . !!!

This. Since Covid I've managed to reduce some of my back problems by regular daily workouts. I'm working on all muscle groups, rebuilding muscle mass and strength. Unfortunately, all my good work is being undone by an arthritic hip which doesn't respond to any treatment other than pain killers!

They put pets in the holds of planes, and Alex exports his cabs around the world with no problems. But why are you asking us? Ask the airline, any airline.

Probably this, but with Thomann's buying power, in the music industry, they should be able to require the weight of the bass be included on the final check list.

I always used Fender hard cases until I switched to gig bags, so have never owned or used a Hiscox case, but it is always very sad news when companies supporting musicians stop trading.

Me, I'm 48. . . . I wish I was!!!

I use an Aguilar TH500 for my passive PJ5 with flats and an AG700 for my active Jazz with rounds. IMO they compliment the sound of those basses.

Deep bass just gets in the way. Listen to any record and the bass guitar should be renamed low-mid guitar.

I too was on Bassworld for awhile and signed up for Basschat on 17th May 2007. I remember thinking why would anyone sit in front of a terminal and post about playing bass! Ho hum!!!

Buy a better Jazz bass. I've been a P bass guy since I first saw John McVie with John Mayall in the 60's. It's always been my preference, but I also love the sound of my Jazz bass. It is different, but my Sadowsky can take on any P bass for tone.

I used one of these for several years. they have a fantastic tone. -
Email Lakland and find where their dealers are located.

If that was the case FOH and recording studios wouldn't have converted to digital many years ago.

I run 2 One10's on small gigs with an Aguilar TH500 or AG700, and they sound much better than the One10 in this clip.

I cut the E string just past the A string tuner, and a similar distance for all the other strings. Looks like that is 2". Gives me 2 turns of string on every post.

What about it?

No. It's against the law to use any 15" speakers cabs. . . . health and safety.

It's simple. All you need to know. . . . you need a 500 watt D class amp. It will be loud enough for any gig and rehearsal and it will weigh around 5lbs.

That’s me. I'm a part-time T shirt model.

I know I can get the job done no matter what gear I'm using, but I definitely enjoy it more, and consequentially play better, when the sound is good. Also if you manage to put together a great signal chain, the rest of the band will think it's you playing better!! You gotta tick as many boxes as you can.
