  1. Any trades Kevin.?
  2. Kevin can you tell us more about the bass.? What year was it made, seems to be an early Shuker.. what is the weight.? obviously its not a sunburst finish so that's confusing and its a flame top not a quilt.. Truss rod adjustment.?? Maple headstock veneer.? The pickups look to be Bartolini not EMG....Im aware James Crofts used to be a BC member and is a pro bass player.
  3. Looking for a cheap gig bag that has lots of padding. £100 budget to fit a jazz bass.. Any recommendations.? Thankyou in advance.
  4. Ive had a few.. the one that was just awful was a CS 1970 jazz bass. Limited edition. 1 of 100 made. Im not sure what they did to it. But it wasnt resonant. Weak pickups. Big gaps in the neck pocket.. I had a USA 75 avri jazz that was excellent. The best by a long way was a non export MIJ 75 jazz. That thing was killer. Everything you want in a jazz bass. Resonant. Killer tone. Amazing feeling instrument from the fret perfection to the neck profile.
  5. Ludicrously over priced paying for Fender CS name nonsense. Ive seen some custom shop jazzers selling for over 9 grand. Masterbuilt of course by Vincent Van Gogh or whatever his name is. Ive seen a Strat CS for sale on Thomann for 18 grand. The factory tour for the average worker stamping out metal parts all day long on 50 year old presses is not a pretty site.
  6. His guitar solo is just.....................
  7. I mean those albums that every song you hear next you want to hear. Not a skipper.. For me its this.every record on this album is just perfection. This particular track... The whole album I've had in my car for the last 25 years from tape to CD... The guy is an uncertainty but his music is just...
  8. Deborah Killings on a JP1.. Headphones are a must. Best factory 6 string ever made imo.
  9. I'm sure many have seen this. Sharray is playing a 97 Jazz deluxe with a Suhr preamp and pickups. Im a big fan of anything Suhr as ive owned a Suhr jazz bass act.
  10. Sorry to derail this thread but does anyone know how the Sandberg JM (older shape) compares to a Lakland 55-02. This one I mean.?Im aware sonically they might be different, or will they sound the same... Is an MM J an MM J. Ive never payed a Sandberg before. I really dig the MM J setup for its fatness on the MM switchable coils. The LH3 on the Lakland is obviously what they use on the USA Lakland and I can't see anything sounding better. But looks wise I dig a jazz bass.
  11. The second vid is a solo he played with Ben.
  12. I mean come on . That jazz bass tone alone.
  13. One of the most unknown great is this cat.
  14. No competition. Versatility hands down... Lakland 55-02.
  15. Awesome basses. In my top 5 basses I've ever played was a Rapture.
  16. Thankyou for that. We got this also, right up my street.
  17. I have one day and many songs to learn but I was wondering if anyone knows this bass line and could tab it for me. Root notes are fine for now.. Any Help is most appreciated.
  18. Ive played this bass and it was pretty awesome.. GLWTS M...
  19. Well with that logic every song ever written is great. But I think a good point is, good music is in the eye of the beholder. Just like beauty or comedy.. So with that logic every song ever written is great.. That works for me..
  20. I mentioned this vid in a previous post. Fascinating doc about California in the 60's/70s and the music/musicians that wrote/recorded music at that time. I enjoyed it. Thought others may.
