Watching Masterchef I drew a comparison between those Michelin star chefs they work with and bass playing. I have decided I'm greasy spoon and a little bit Greggs. Im consistent and you know what you get. The stuff I play is mass market and goes down well, makes people happy. I've got a bit of Waitrose in me but no one ever seems to need it. Your thoughts?

Spot on that is. Really enjoyed it. Great bass tone

This guy is loving life and he loves his bass. Excuse my ignorance but I had no idea you could make a Rickenbacker sound this way. This guys a star!

I was watching this today. I love his comments about slap bass are absolutely spot on. I really enjoyed it

Im learning this. I just love Laura Nyro. I thing the bass in this is inspired.

Not everyone’s cup of tea. He’s the master of shred on the violin. Guy Christian Nsangur is just brilliant.

A friend sent me this. He knows it’s my thing. However their interpretation of GAS puts a whole new spin on the same affliction. I fear I have both strains!

Hello it might be worth messaging @paulbkeeves He,s the go to player for many musicals He’s also a really super guy.

RIP.

Have you thought about using flats or some foam to mute the strings? An octave pedal would provide a nice sub effect?

Reminds me of Number one cup

Nice West Coast vibe. Cool

Evening all. I’m looking to change the control loom for a squire jaguar vintage modified. It’s the jag with the stacked pots. Each pot has volume and tone. The bottom control of the stack has a dial ( click when turning). However I don’t really need to keep that feature. Where should I be shopping for this? The parts thread has not been updated since the new site migration took place. Cheers

Another endorsement for RCF. We bought the Art 745. Does away with a sub. Great projection. Easy to transport. What motto love.

I really admire all those wonderful players who are consistently push technique and strive for excellence. In my younger days they were inspiring and I spent hours diligently trying to emulate them. However as @Bilbo has stated. I have never used the techniques in my weekend warrior playing career. I imagine if I were endorsed and had to promote a product or did clinics I’d defo have some slick runs and fancy techniques to impress my audience and paymasters. I feel there’s a place for us all in the choir. These players spark interest and inspire the next generation and no doubt those young players will go on the same journey as many of us and if they are lucky end up content playing the music they really enjoy

Get in !!

How’s Dracula supposed to travel ?

I honestly think 'Spirit of Eden' is one of the best produced albums ever. The band were falling apart due to addiction etc and I think you can hear it in this album. An incredible piece of music

I was born in the same town as Rory, Ballyshannon on the border of southern and Northern Ireland. I for some reason feel this has rubbed off on my playing (it really hasn't ) The local hospital is called the 'Rock Hospital ' clearly because of me and not Rory. what a Player !! FYI there a festival held there every year. https://www.rorygallagherfestival.com

It’s an incredible book, a journey of recovery. I can’t imagine how you get over your loss

So sad. Horrible disease. RIP. Thoughts with his family

I have true contender. The Beehive Pub near West Bromwich. It’s basically a time machine. An old stove burner, which had old table legs and heaps of pallet timber ready to burn. A back room that hasn’t been used since 1984. Several rusting cars out side. To cap it off, everyone in the place was smoking. Including the kids. There was also a women dressed as pikachu. cant wait to go back.
