EB 110 flats on my Precisions

Ernie Ball 110's on my 78P and 51RI - tweak the truss rod and you're away. Great thump from these, the 51 feels and sounds just fantastic with this set up

This has it all - groovy hippy chicks, Hells Angels, cool slide guitar and Larry 'The Mole'. THIS, all you Jacoesque slappers, poppers with too much treble, is BASS A little Mississippi noise.........

Help me out someone if you know - it sounded great.[/quote] I met Pete when I bought so some gear off of him through this site. If its the bass Im thinking of, he made it himself - no a bitsa either!

[quote name='JohnSlade07' post='443042' date='Mar 23 2009, 08:26 PM']"Crossing the border" to Essex! I live in Planet Thanet mate we consider a trip to Canterbury to be a major undertaking.[/quote] Ha! Its funny what we think of as a long way for gigs etc. I have some friends in a band in Texas, and they think nothing of driving 100-150 miles for a regular bar gig, to be paid a lot less than pub bands here demand (quite often just for tips)!! Im not slating John - we're all like it. Mind you, we have got some choice traffic/roads/fuel costs to contend with........i would be lucky to get out of London by road in time for a gig during the week!!

If you are looking for a great blues jam try The Coach & Horses on a Wed in Leyton on the High Rd

Try "crossing the border" to Essex - Tue nights at the Essex arms in Brentwood, the Hot Hob Jam - some wicked blues musicians get in there.

Blues band - Chicago/Texas/West Coast stuff

I think they're really lame now and seem to just go through the motions. Although a brilliant blues harp player, i think Mark Felthams playing has become too refined for what was the NBZ style of old. Gerry is a wicked bass player - check out some of the old Rory Gallagher stuff!

Sold Dougal my GS410. Nice bloke, turned up when he said he would - smooth deal.

I like it

C/S by Los Carnales. Some of the greasiest blues Ive heard in a long time. Bass player is Preston Hubbard, one time Fabulous Thunderbird (after Keith Ferguson) - well worth a listen.

Bump - actively searching again.....
