[quote name='TimR' timestamp='1470481102' post='3106283'] If it is Geddy they're not the final edits as per the finished album tracks. Maybe it's just the best single take they had plus some overdubs to complete it. Apparently reading the comments it's what Rush supplied for Garage band. [/quote] Can you provide specific examples of differences?

[quote name='Schnozzalee' timestamp='1470436013' post='3106065'] How do you find Maru Basses in comparison with your Vintage Fenders? (You can tell I've been away a while - Just found out what a Limelight was a couple of weeks ago) [/quote] My '71 P is gathering dust. These feel just like it (the neck profile was specced specially), and they're lighter.

I'm not a big JB fan, but I quite like it. The Bill Oddie connection is the icing on the cake.

[quote name='TimR' timestamp='1470421755' post='3105941'] I don't think they're original. It's not him. There are some on YouTube that are though. [/quote] These are totally him.

You just have to keep doing it until muscle memory kicks in. You'll probably find at fist that the bass suffers while you concentrate on singing, but eventually it'll come back up to par.

Cheers! It's my teeny Ibanez Promethean combo with a nice mic on it. Really happy with the sound.

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1470349513' post='3105487'] Are you changing the name of the band to The Caffrey? [/quote] Not at the moment.. there's still two left :-)

Something we just recorded... incidentally, one of the brothers has left, so I've picked up his vocals. It's not been easy..! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cKycykSIVQ[/media]

Here it is doin' its thing. I love this bass with a passion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cKycykSIVQ

[quote name='SisterAbdullahX' timestamp='1470248889' post='3104503'] Yes, that's the stuff. I see you have one with binding yourself. [/quote] I have two...

Run away.

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1470233240' post='3104332'] It's been a long time since I had a KFC. [/quote] Am I the only person that read this in a Robert Plant voice?

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Yes, looks are important. Otherwise I'd be playing non-P variant basses.[/font][/color]

[quote name='SisterAbdullahX' timestamp='1470160111' post='3103737'] Ooh! I like the look of those Elwoods! I do like a zero fret, too. Does he do edge bound necks, does anybody know? [/quote] By 'edge bound' do you mean normal binding? If so, yes...

I've got two passive PJs, both of which are pretty silent. One has a split-coil J at the bridge - if I back off onto that, I need to nudge the amp to compensate. The other has a fat humbucker at the bridge. When I back off to that, I don't need to do anything to the volume. It's a beast. Maybe you need to go down that route?

Now I know who Steve Wishnevsky copped his designs from...

Here's a song from when we were on the telly a few weeks back: https://vimeo.com/170270945

[quote name='dadofsix' timestamp='1469801826' post='3101178'] And I think we may have a winner with the MX49. Thanks to everyone for their input. <><Peace [/quote] You're welcome. FWIW, Mrs. WoT got hers for £200 on eBay. Presumably there are similar bargains to be had on your site of the watter :-).

A cheap option: Mrs. Bailey uses a Yamaha MX49. Small, weighs next-to-nothing, good presets.
