Is this for your band "Free Tommy"?

I literally can't listen to it. 

I'd rather stand outside and accompany roadworks. 

 

Dude, that sounds like jazz to me...

Doesn't that apply to pretty much all Jazz? 😂

You should know by now that jazz is the epitome of music for the bassist.

shush

There's a major omission.... the FX 25 is fabulous for dub if you set it so the envelope doesn't open.

Have you not met me??? he he he he!

After watching a few videos, I'd want you in my band (if I wasn't playing bass)

Nothing really.

Apart from a new (and populated) pedal board with three amps. And maybe a double neck guitar.

To be honest, yes, now that I got through that one. As he'd (and many on here also) pointed out, at this type of gig, the audience are not at all interested. We were just a hum in the background whilst they were knocking back champaign that someone else had paid for😂

I have done a few gigs like this... playing jazz to people's backs... you can play any old shite and they don't notice.

The update.

Just got back from the "mime" gig.

I had previously said, "what could possibly go wrong?"

Four days ago, I think I broke my left little finger. Still bloody painful. So, I took a back up normal fretless. Got to the sax player's house, to find he'd now taken the bass off of the tracks, suggesting that I can now "play along" with the numbers!! Great, a random 15 numbers from a list of 30 numbers I didn't know.

Fabulous venue and food, corporate gig for 70 high-flyers. I get told that I can share the guitarist's real book charts. Fab, a busted finger, an upright bass I've had for 5 weeks and songs I don't know and now, have to take my eyes off the fingerboard😂

Lasted five numbers on the upright and changed to normal fretless. Less painful and at least I knew where the notes were. Got through it, but stressful, got paid and the unexpected key changes in a couple of numbers were a bit of a car crash. All experience though I guess.

Awesome! Well done!

Otherwise I would have offered him a few danish kroner.

The sad thing is that I would have loved this bass if it hadn't had the fake decal added to it and left in a well for 3 months. Judging by the state of it, I reckon the neck is shagged.

Better to report the listing to ebay... there's a button at the top right of the description section of each listing.

Side splittingly good!

How about a bit of Mungo Jerry?

In fairness, Graham, most of the pro-Ishibashi posts on this thread were made before the UK voted for economic suicide and destroyed the value of the UK£.

2015: an Aerodyne Jazz costing 55,000 JPY would have cost £282 pre shipping & tax. Today it would cost £392... something must have affected the exchange rate.

I like the musicless ones...

bubinga, watch this... you're going to love it...

hmm

Neil Schon joined Santana at 15...

I saw him a couple of times in that period.... for my money he was better in the more stripped down version of the band with Nathan East, Phil Collins and Greg Philliganes... He tends to sit back more in a larger band.

He was good in Baron Munchausen

Jeez... this has screwed up my youtube recommendations.

I don't know why the bongos aren't used more in metal.
