    [quote name='timmo' timestamp='1427754765' post='2734009'] I guess when you have played on as many songs as she has, the memory may get sketchy. I don`t see why she would tell an outright lie to try to get credit, as she hardly needs needs the recognition [/quote] Maybe. No disrespect to her, but Jameson's playing was on a different level imo.

    [quote name='natjag' timestamp='1427648184' post='2732671'] I actually messaged Carol Kaye via her Facebook page about an Elvis track she claims to have played on (Suspicious Minds). After I mentioned that copies of the session sheet show Tommy Cogbill and Mike Leech as the bass players for the session in Memphis (She is based in LA) how did she come to play bass on the track? She blocked me. I must have hit a nerve or something. [/quote] Didn't she also claim to play on "I Was Made to Love Her" (unmistakably Jamerson) ? I think I read somewhere that others related to the song confirmed it was Jamerson... Edit: Here's [url="http://www.bassland.net/jamerson.html"]the link[/url] about it (scroll down to Who Played Bass on Stevie Wonder's "I Was Made To Love Her"?).

    Good stuff, Chris and very insightful. I consider Jamerson one of my favourite players, and recall doing much of my music degree based on his playing/work. I hope however, it doesn't put people off buying a really tremendous book! (maybe a link on your site to it on Amazon or something?)

    Fantastic Chic video! I miss Bernard - what a player!

    Both sold. Thanks.
  8. Simon
    Aguilar on hold pending payment.
  9. Simon
    Genz on hold pending payment. Aguilar still available, perfect condition £375
  10. Simon
    I've had some requests to split, so I will. £375 a piece. Cab is preferred pickup/meet. Can post the Genz as I have all original packaging. Would imagine it would be around £15-£20 for a courier.
  11. Simon
    Oh, worth adding that the Genz Benz has the original box/packaging and instructions. The Aguilar doesn't have a box.

    I'm thinking of downsizing again to a smaller combo, as i'm not gigging and am purely a hobbyist bass player/bedroom bass player nowadays! This set-up for sale here as NEVER been gigged. It has always remained in my smoke free/pet free home. The Genz Benz Shuttle 6.0 has a few light scratches, barely visible to be fair. The Aguilar DB210 is pristine. I purchased these from new, as a pair and it cost me way over £1000. Considering the excellent condition, I would like to get £750 for the pair. I am not keen to split these up if possible. I would most definitely prefer collection (I am based in Weston-super-Mare, South West England) but would be willing to meet within reasonable distance. Thanks for listening [attachment=132035:photo 1.JPG] [attachment=132036:photo 2.JPG] [attachment=132037:photo 3.JPG] [attachment=132038:photo 4.JPG]

    SOLD!
  14. Simon
    Apologies. Say £50 collected, or add on courier cost.
  15. Simon
    The missus is making me clear out, so regretfully I am selling my Bass Guitar Magazine collection. Issues 1 to 71 in very good, if not perfect condition. Very well looked after, not dog-eared, or used as coasters! I would like to sell this as a collection to avoid having to sell individuals. I would be willing to send by courier if the buyer covers costs, but would prefer a pickup (Weston-super-Mare, in South West England). SOLD [attachment=126702:photo.JPG]

    [quote name='lozbass' timestamp='1340030125' post='1697889'] One of the nicest basses ever to make an appearance on these pages IMO [/quote] If it was an update I would've gone for it
  25. Simon
    Hi Chris, The bass looks lovely, but the pics are a bit on the small side
