  1. Very nice looking amp
  2. (Still A) Weirdo - KT Tunstall
  3. The Seeker - The Who
  4. Have a look at: http://www.geminipickups.co.uk/bass/jazz-bass https://www.houseoftonepickups.com/ https://www.creamery-pickups.co.uk/custom-handwound-pickups-from-the-creamery/scatterwound-bass-pickups.html#.X3suc1KSnIU https://www.bareknucklepickups.co.uk/pickups/j-bass https://www.montysguitars.com/collections/bass-pickups/products/retro-wind-j-bass-pickup-set Maybe a few ideas there.
  5. Blame it on the Boogie - Michael Jackson
  6. It really sounds like he needs to get his guitar checked over by someone who knows what they're doing.
  7. Sunshine on Leith - The Proclaimers
  8. Blue Monday - New Order
  9. Saturday's Alright for Fighting - Elton John
  10. There's a few options if you just want a straight swap: https://www.thomann.de/gb/gotoh_404bo_c_bass_bridge.htm https://www.axesrus.co.uk/Gotoh-404SJ-Bridge-p/404sj.htm https://www.axesrus.co.uk/Gotoh-510BO-4-Bridge-p/j510bo.htm https://www.wdmusic.co.uk/hardware-parts-c1/bridges-tailpieces-c2/bass-c96/wd-music-4-string-modern-bass-bridge-p4820 https://www.btnmusic.co.uk/product/abm-3d-bass-bridge-aluminium/ https://www.btnmusic.co.uk/product/grainger-bass-bridge-4-string/
  11. Boogie Wonderland - Earth Wind & Fire
  12. I've been trying to "get" Yes for many years. Even went so far as buying one of the "Best Of" compilation albums. Still don't get them for the above reasons (though to be fair, I couldn't give a flying flip about the dodgy clothes). Great musicians, obviously, but it's a "No" from me.
  13. This. Charge original bassist for storage.
  14. We Will Rock You - Queen
  15. Let There Be Rock - AC/DC
  16. 3 becomes 4, with the recent acquisition of a Jetglo 4003.
  17. Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen (Mamma, just killed a man...)
  18. Love Me Do - The Beatles
  19. You answered your own question in your opening statement. Go with that.
  20. Sloop John B - The Beach Boys
  21. There's always the new POD Go, same model set as the Helix range, but in a more versatile package than the HX Stomp and for around a similar price. Some functions have been amended, but it would seem like a really good choice.
  22. Turning Japanese - The Vapors
  23. Call Me - Blondie
  24. Autumn Twighlight - Cathedral
  25. I don't use a Helix, but an older HD500x as my pre-amp as well as effects. It is certainly more limited in respect of bass specific bass amp/cab sims, but it's still incredibly usable, and sounds great. I would say that it does give you the ability to have a multitude of different variations on amp & cab sounds, useful for different songs, add in effects, and you can switch between effects and/or patches during songs / between songs etc. The only other comparable pre-amp that could do something similar would be either the SanaAmp BDDI Deluxe, or the VT Bass Deluxe (both of which are now discontinued). A single pre-amp pedal would mean that you keep a "core" sound, and add additional effects to that. To vary your sound, you'd need to add another pre-amp or something like an EQ pedal. Maybe take a look at the Helix LT, which would give you more connectivity options as well as switching options.
