Setting off for a day at the studio tomorrow… I’m packing a Les Paul Standard, 60’s reissue strat, 50’s reissue Strat with Baritone neck (27” scale) and a Guild Baritone 8 String. It does seem I’m more the guitarist at the moment…I’ve sold 4 basses recently and @Dankology is doing a sterling job holding down the bottom end… Enjoying the challenge - Not enjoying remembering to turn pedals on and off and playing the solos correctly…

They look like the groovline models from a few years ago following plastic surgery. There are elements of Sadowsky, Alpher and dare I say it…Cort GB. There’s nowt there for me. Anyhow…

I prefer the peach one they did a couple of years ago.

I asked chat GPT to interpret this… What on earth…

A lovely (accurate) set of reissue basses from Gibson… Like meticulously accurate, not the “it’s almost right…but…” that they seem to do. A Yamaha BB3000 reissue

I need to practice more - that’s all it is. I should also stop identifying as a bass player with a guitar; I’ve actually played guitar in some form or other as long as I’ve played bass…but now I’ve taken on the guitarist role. I need to practice or write down what works for solos. To inspire me further…I did this

Dare I say it… I need to get better at guitar… I’m actually pretty adept. But I forget things - muscle memory is natural on bass… And an album. By the end of the year.

Think it’s tail end of Feb I’ll be there with Walshy. we do it every year, like a bass version of brokeback mountain

Found some old cassettes from late 90’s “hazy” jam sessions - we thought it was the peak of finding the new sounds (Maaaahn!) In reality it was a sloppy noodle fest…awful unlistenable turd. 🫣

Love that colour way…ace.

Deffo out. Glad I didn’t enter and embarrass myself again 😆

I’m not even entering. Picking a guitar up this evening 😆

Bare with me…I have some BA2 saddles
