    Welcome to BC This is a great (i.e. essential!!!) resource for anyone playing bass in the UK. The natives are very friendly, so just pitch in anytime you feel like it. Al

    Welcome to BC There used to be a great site called OLGA where people could post bass tabs but it got shopped. Active bass is good for lessons and midi samples. They have a whole section on funk lines. [url="http://www.activebass.com/"]http://www.activebass.com/[/url] Fellow JJ disciple!!!

    Can't really go wrong with the Yammies. I've got three! Build quality always good and best beginner bass in my opinion. I love 'em [quote name='neepheid' post='258752' date='Aug 9 2008, 11:43 AM']Welcome to the forum I've never played a Yamaha, but I haven't heard any bad stuff said about them so you're probably safe enough.

    Hi Sorry for delay but I was doing a bit of research and I'm actually after the darker tortoiseshell pickguard. I thought that this was it when I first saw it. Apologies but I don't need this one. Al [quote name='fleamail' post='258766' date='Aug 9 2008, 12:08 PM']yes it is still available![/quote]

    Fickle as we all are I've fallen out of love with my MIA P Bass since my Stingray arrived so she needs a new home. Serial number is N7271139 which makes it a 97 according to the Fender Website. Someone out there may be able to spot a reissue here, but to me its a US Standard (no S1 switching), through body stringing. Maple neck and fingerboard. Have to disclose that when I first got this (about 4 years ago) I couldn't get on with the lack of thumbrest so I glued a couple on to the pearloid scratchplate (yeah I know ). They are gone now but the glue marks remain (see pic). Would probably look better with a bit of light sanding and polishing though. Apart from that it has a couple of tiny dings at the top of the headstock. Can't find the exact colour on the Fender Website. Its a darkish red. I thought it was Candy Apple but its darker than that. Comes with Fender Hardshell Moulded case, Fender Truss Rod, Manual and Tag. I'm in Esher in darkest Surrey. Never sent a guitar through the post before so not sure how all that works. Would prefer pickup from Esher, or I will drive out to meet half way up to 30 minutes from home. Looking for £500. Al

    Welcome to BC Ray Like you I played when I was a kid and then stopped for about ten years for work/marriage/kids/house etc. I guess I missed out on a lot of playing and gigging experience over ten years, but I came back to the bass with a different understanding of the instrument and its role. For example I spend a lot of time trying to get the tone right rather than practicing a bunch of slap riffs designed to impress. You get older and your perspective changes I guess. Al

    Hey guys Great insight here ... thanks for all the tips. Off to get intimate with my drummer now

    Hey guys Plenty for me to think about here. Thanks for chipping in on this. Jakebass ... especially like that concept that the kick is the front point of the bass note..... I played with a drummer for a couple of years who tended to slow up on the the tempo as the song progressed, so I got into the bad habit of playing in front of him to drag him along instead of trying to fix the problem at source. I've since left that band and hooked up with a funk trio....... but I still have this tendency to get ahead of the beat. I guess I have to work on the idea that tempo setting is the drummer's role ... not mine. Thanks again. Lots of food for thought Al
