Like Lozz said, probably the best place to start would be a Zoom multi, probably the B1 Four might be the best place to start. It is of course, a very slippery slope...

Master and Servant - Depeche Mode

They tend to be very US oriented. Have you tried TalkBass? Again, US based, but a more "Global" user base.

Saw the posts on Facebook, obviously took an interest as it's a Ric, and the connection with Swervedriver. Good luck with the hunt for your old bass. Definitely not the one in my avatar though, that's a 4003.

Dear Prudence - Siouxsie and the Banshees, oh and some band from Liverpool

Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep - Middle of the Road

Second hand Ashdown.

Manic Mechanic - ZZ Top

Ferry Across the Mersey - Gerry & the Pacemakers

Have a look at: Celestion IR's - Bass I bought the Pulse 10 pack, which are ace IMO.

No Class - Motorhead

Love Like Blood - Killing Joke

Anaesthesia (Pulling Teeth) - Metallica

Electricity - Captain Beefheart

My son's applied for a music course at the local college, fingers crossed he gets a place. He was asking me about how he could pick up session work (he's a drummist). I have no idea, but networking is key.

Manhattan Project - Rush

Escape, Alt & F4 - Lancashire Hotpots

Must admit to going back and looking at this while it was up for sale. Great looking bass, enjoy your new toy.

The recent SBL Geddy Lee vid that was posted elsewhere talked a bit about the "clank" you get from moving your plucking position closer to the neck. If you watch vids of early Geezer, Geddy & the Ox, they all play closer to the neck. Always thought it gave a more "plummy" sound, almost double bass-ish, but if you play a bit harder, it does have that bit more of an attack. Another thing I've noticed is that you can get a bit more of an attack by using the side of your fingers rather than the tips. If you angle your hand a touch toward the neck from where you anchor your thumb, you can change which part of the finger plucks the string. Works for me.

For as much as I like Rush, I can't stand Yes. Or Led Zep for that matter. Completely agree about the Glenn Hughes comments too, but bizarrely, always thought that Ian Gillan was ace. Go figure. Don't get me started on Greta Van Fleet...

If you don't get it, you don't get it. If you get it though, it's a masterclass.
