  1. I was in a band with a guy like that, middle if gig ‘Slap that bass Mr Bassman’. He got a look of complete indifference as I continued to play pizz as I had the whole gig. I didn’t offer my services again. All joking aside that, you’re not wrong mentioning risk of injury in picking up a new technique, anything from blisters to tendinitis, quite minor unless you’re an upright player 👍
  2. Without wishing to offend anyone, here's my advice re Rockabilly Slap Just don't, or at least, if you do, 20 seconds max per set
  3. Now you've done it @Lozz196, give it a month or so and there'll be hi-mass plectrums on Thomann at £49 each
  4. That is a far more common scenario than most of us would like to admit, and it's not just hi-mass bridges 👍
  5. To return the favour, I enjoyed this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Not-Abba-Real-Story-1970s/dp/0007146396
  6. Thank you Jack, just bought it 🙏
  7. Still blown away by how beautiful those two are 👍
  8. That’s an odd reply given the seller has stated very clearly that he’s not going to post it….?
  9. Frankly @Linus27 I’d simply buy a replacement fretted neck and put it on that bass for however long is necessary. It’s a crap time to be selling a bass and you may regret letting that beauty go 👍
  10. Have to agree, even if it was put together by Roger Sadowsky it’s still a bitsa
  11. Can't win can we mate 🤔
  12. DB people live at a slower pace than electric bass people, be patient Young Jedi 👍
  13. I'm guessing that some if it is room acoustics, sound near the stage - backline and monitors - could be very different to that elsewhere?
  14. Mmm, I suspect it's more than luck
  15. I suspect the OP would prefer you said it's all in the bass mate But wow, that is such an iconic instrument. There's been a lot of talk round these parts about the next big wave of collectable vintage, and I suspect that these late 70's black/black/maple models are going to rocket in the same way as the early 70's 3TSB/tort.rosewood models have (amazing the difference in price represented by 3-4 years in some cases, and it's as often assumed purely a quality issue, I've played some utter dogs from the early 70's). If you can afford to keep it @DaveSetchfield, keep it mate, going on that video, you and it get on quite well 👍
  16. ….or half step 🤔
  17. Not so bad at all 👍
  18. ......and I can here my dear old Dad saying 'But this is just noise' during the synth solo as he skulked off to listen to a Lonnie Donegan LP
  19. Glorious isn't it 👍
  20. Console and PT is actually a PITA for me also. You know, I’m gonna give Luna another go 👍
  21. That is an upside of having both, when I'm not using an Apollo or Satellite I tend to run into processing problems very quickly
