  1. There are many, but one colour or other kind of finish on a bass must be your favourite. Mine, for example, is Olympic White:
  2. I'm now at seven. It used to be ten at one point, but seven is fine. For now. -1966 Fender Jazz Bass Original except for the frets and the finish. -1971 Fender Precision Bass Original except for the frets, the bridge chrome cover and the finish. -2013 De Gier Bebop 5 Custom built for yours truly. First Bebop ever with dot inlay and neck binding. -2018 Dingwall Combustion 5 Trans White Played this bass at the 2018 LBGS and now I have it. But not before Yolanda Charles played it. -2002 Fender Standard Jazz Bass fretless Lollar pickups, epoxied fingerboard, Gotoh 201 bridge, black pickguard. Best fretless I've ever owned and probably ever will own. This bass is made for me. -2001 Blade B2 Tetra Bass Nordstrand pickups, Aguilar OBP-1 preamp, otherwise original. Amazing 70's sound that feels great. -2001 Yamaha BB N5II My second bass ever, tuned EADGC. Will never sell this.
  3. Here's how it sounds:
  4. We did a live session with Tyranni Flock a while ago and it's online now! Check it out.

     

  5. Patitucci is also an awesome guy to listen to if his music isn't your cup of tea. I have seen a clinic by him, Brian Blade and Danilo Perez (Fellowship of the Light Trio) a few years ago and JP is a calm, inspiring guy who is excellent in explaining tons of musical ideas and concepts.
  6. Thanks! It has downsized a teensy weensy because the G&L turned out to be stolen (long story). So it's now this:
  7. Pwoah, that is stunning!
  8. If only I had the cash lying around...😭
  9. Sudden and intense GAS for a fretless Stingray. Why oh why are they NEVER available for sale?

      Yeah I saw that but that's a five and I'm a bit of a sucker for 4 string fretlesses.😁

  10. Hey Music Man aficionados, I have a question: why doesn't EBMM make a fretless bass anymore? I've been GASsing on a fretless Stingray (because of Tony and Pino of course) for a few days and was checking out which models exist but there are no new models available as fretless anymore.
  11. Thanks I always thought it's less "wide" than the Dingwall system, and indeed it is
  12. I just saw the first episode of my own podcast has almost 400 listeners. I was hoping for about 70 or 80 or something. And now it's 400. Crikey.

  13. Very nice collection! What's the scale length division on that SR?
  14. You're welcome It looks so much classier with that pickguard IMHO.
  15. I've recently started a podcast with and about bass players here in NL and I really enjoy the responses I get. Very positive.

  16. This contains sound:
  17. Two new music  videos out today! Check out "Ujung Kulon" by Tyranni Flock (you can hear me on Moog bass and guitar):

    And a video by my friend Aafke Romeijn, where I played my old Precision. Lyrics in Dutch.

  18. Got a Squier Bullet from '87 to restore. A good clean, new strings, setup... Can't wait to start on it.

      @arthurhenry & @BassAgent - I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the quality of these MIK Fenders :)

      It's finished! It's quite nice. The neck feels quite wide, more or less like early 60's Precisions. Otherwise it just sounds like a decent Precision. I like it.

      @Marc S I had mine from '88 - '90, but got the chance to play it again very briefly and unplugged, a few years ago. I was impressed enough to think about trying to get it back (it now belongs to a local school).

  19. Why did you replace the pickups? Were they broken?
  20. And a replacement pickguard I guess? Looking great!
  21. Oh it will relic.
  22. I'm still looking for a good cleaner for my nitro finished vintage Fenders. I use Dunlop 65 on all my other basses but I've read it's not good for nitro finishes a bit too often... What do you guys use? I think I used to use the Fender Custom Shop QuickClean but I seem to have forgotten...
  23. Super excited to finally be seeing Mark Guiliana live next week with his Beat Music project
