BC Rich, Gibson SG, Warwick Buzzard, Warwick Dolphin, T Bird, but what the fxxk do I know. It doesnt really matter though does it. Marcus Miller could make the same music on any of these basses and it would still sound epic.

I watched the SBL Podcast with him and he comes across as very humble polite man. What a monster player he is. Too busy.? Maybe depends on your perspective but this guy knows his bass playing inside and out. I personally love hearing what these Gospel cats can do. Its like watching a Lamborghini of the bass world. Better to have it and not use than not have it in the vocabulary.

Brian Bromberg is a Beast and I didnt know it.. And because I dont much care for the Beatles ive grown to appreciate Mr Mcartneys bass playing. Ok this isn't the Beatles but what a bass line. Its so musical and totally propels the record. There is a live version when he plays this line and sings. Fantastic record also.

Bobby Lyle on fire.

Yep.

I would way rather have a used 90s SR5..

Ok im done Bill Conti,s finest.

Maybe now.?

This score for Dirty Harry by Lalo Schifrin is epic.

Its the greatest intro to any Incognito album imo. Randy HOPE Taylor on a Moon bass. His playing is insane musical groove.

Mike Post was imo a genius. . He just had a knack of penning a short piece of music for a tv program. It was usually a full song. but edited it... Who can not think of this when Mike Post wrote something.... The A Team, The Rockford Files, Law and Order, Quantum Leap.

That was written by Mike Post. No idea who the bass player was. Could have been any session guy who was in the area at the time.

The guitar solo on this @ 3.50 is just phenomenal.

Ive seen this band sooooooo many times I cant remember. The Jazz Cafe in London stand out to me and my sister as the best to be honest. They never disappoint as the musicians they/Bluey have are just so incredibly talented. A couple of records on this album that are just smoking imo.. Me and my sister in the late 90s used to think they were very trendy, then we realised they went way past trends. Who's doesn't like Francis Hylton on an Atelier Z jazz bass laying down a groove. Just wonderful guitar solos on both. I love alot of different music but the mighty Incognito tick so many boxes for me. But thats just me

Its pungent

😆.. Yeah maybe. Its not the music its me, which I said a version of that to a girl once. I get it, I recognise them as great songs, but the songs just dont do it for me. The rhythms of alot of songs, the chord changes etc etc,, I dont like the color teal, so thats about how much my opinion matters.. But.... I find a sniff of euro pop about them.

Its funny you should say that Oli, I had a scammer try to get me. Long story short I ended up having a long long chat with him. He was from Nigeria, Him and his family were living on nothing financially. He ended up apologising to me and said he wants to be a musician but cant afford a bass. I really felt for the guy.. I still talk to him now., he asks how im doing etc etc.. His situation hasn't got any better. I think I got it bad.. Jeez people like him are hand to mouth existence.

ABBA, all of them..

In the 20 + years of selling instruments ive never received the shit that ive just received on Face Book. Im selling a Mono M80 bag that is in great condition . The inner cable pocket thing has come away stitching wise. I started by selling it at £120, which was probably optimistic. I got comments like "set it on fire".. "Way over priced" etc.. I have never ever got this on Bass Chat.. If its over priced make me an offer. Me and my wife are really struggling financially which I didnt mention, in hindsight maybe I should have. I dropped the price to £90.. But no, still overpriced."could I stitch it myself" I would bet some of these darlings are on Bass Chat... I just dont get the outright destroying of someones for sale advert. Just PM me about a price. It is literal out and out vitriol. I will say I was so pissed off I sent some messages that were not very polite, unfortunately I have a temper. Why though I just dont get it. This would never happen on BC.

Im a big believer of the more metal in the way of the string vibration to the body the more compressed it will sound. There is nothing a Fender srew saddle cant do that a Hipshot A style cant. They are simple, you can adjust the string spacing. Its over thinking a design that doesn't need to be. Just like string through bridges blah blah. Buy a high mass then you have to shim the neck etc.
