Thanks guys
Very much appreciated!

Just look into learning some Arpeggios across the neck, buy a chord book and dissect them. The technique will come after you actually know what notes you're using!

Just a covers gig in Reading O'Neills last night, but was brilliant, the whole band was clicking well, good energy!!

Used my Precision for the whole gig rather then my Jazz as I'm starting to have a few problems with the raised pole-pieces on the jazz getting a bit sharp. I've been finishing gigs with really knackered tips of fingers......or indeed finger-tips!

But the P was wicked, was loadsa fun and sounded awesome, really loving the Dimarzio!

Thats why i stopped visiting the bass center on school holidays!

Si

Pm'd

Si

And I use the word 'Solo' quite wrongly

Its basically a multitracked piece, all bass + drum machine, that i wrote for a shopping centre promo video. It goes for a minute and a bit then basically loops for another 3 with some very slight variations!.

Its the second track on the player, The Art Of Selling Yourself Short, I named if for my own reasons.

The other newish track is the 4th track, When The Water Rises Up, which was a Blues'ish session that I did!

Cheers, Enjoy

I think the thing is have a branding that looks good!

If you have anything toooo bass orientated, it might come across as a bit geeky perhaps

I wouldn't wear anything that had a big bass clef or picture of a bass....having said that, i do have a Bassist Mug lol

Si

Looks nice!

Kudos to him for actually saying its a Squire, but yeah, bit pricey!

Si

Headroom my friend...nothing like it for low tunings

Si

+1 for £475 being a good price
+1 for the moulded case over the larger one

Thats what my USA Jazz is in

Good luck dude!

Tis a good solid bass, I have it in Drop C Standard tuning, so C F Bb Eb

Some random nice flame in the fingerboard to!

Si

Ooo OOoo OOooo, i'll go take pictures of my pimped OLP, surprisingly similar!

Si

What make are the pickups and hardware?
Is the body alder or basswood? Is it a handmade body or a replacement? (I ask because the neck pickup rout is the size of one that would normally be found underneath a pickguard, and if he made it as a Jaco Tribute, why would there be a pickguard?)

If you're not aware of any of this, is there a way you can find out from the chap who made it?
Cheers

Si

Where did you see a '78 Musicmaster for £130?????

Si

Looking good!

I love those Hipshots! Got them on my Lakkie and want some for my Jazz Project.
Where did you get yours? I assume they're the larger posted ones!?

Si

I have to say, pending actually hearing one, I'd be very interested in one of the LG 1000's as a backup to my ABM EVOII 500.

If it sounds anything like the MB F1, it'll be monstrous!!
Dood how you getting on with yours?

Si

Very good, loved it!
Obviously it helps if you're aware of the original

The Malmsteen one is (was?) classic youtube!

Si

Can you let us know what the specs are??

Cheers
Si

Pipe Organs Rule!!!

Si

It does seem a shame to cover that sexy grain!!
How about a partial p-bass plate to cover the rout, jazz bass styley, but maybe a bit more slimline, so just covering the rout.......and made of wood

Then put some pickup surrounds around the pickups to cover the gaps, Yamaha BB styley.

Si

Its not my birthday......I think I deserve one....I haven't had one in agggggggeeessssss!!

Si

Fender envisaged players would place their fingers on the lower side of he rest and use their thumb to play the strings, so it was actually a finger rest!

Si

Haha, I thought the topic title referred to Les Pauls

That is one of the nicest looking Stingrays i've ever seen! Hands down!

How heavy is the '76 Jazz Marco?
