Heard the Neox212 in action and thought it sounded great. They were very highly thought of, and a lot more affordable than many mentioned here.

Charlie Parker, Billie Holiday, Joe Pass, Chet Baker and a whole host of other great Jazz performers would like a word!

Wasn't aware of Lyn Collins until hearing her last week on the radio, so great to hear her again so soon after 👍

Thanks for that Tony. Great on so many levels, not just the bass playing. Great video, vocals are fantastic, especially the double tracked bits, and that sax solo!!!

Thanks so much for posting this - I think I'm going to enjoy Don's videos.

Jack McDuff (with George Benson) is worth a listen.

Jimmy McGriff - on the Jazz end of the spectrum but still funky.

16 hours worth culled from the Bass chat thread. Couldn't keep up with it in the end 😲 https://open.spotify.com/playlist/59RhYT5dLPwboS9u3njL4S?si=eqXaQgxpTV-nCwXW18bOxg&pi=AYELaBxHRR6-T

Brilliant work Tom.

July 1982, Capital Radio Jazz Festival, Knebworth, A highlight among some exceptional artists. Thanks for the music and memories Jimmy.

If you can afford one, the Herman Miller Aeron is unbeatable.

Looks like it was a guy called Paul Reinhold (left handed)?

But wasn't the issue with Oasis tickets that there was no face value from the original seller and it fluctuated with demand?

Those voices work so nicely together 👍

Wasn't he in Herman's Hermits? I'll get my shell...

We should put a double header on. I described one of the original songs the Americana band I'm in plays as Placebo playing Bluegrass 🤔

Once you have decided which tuning you are going with it would be worth giving Newtone Strings a call who have a great reputation for custom gauge sets.

Just had one of those rehearsals that keep me in the game.

Ouch! Thanks Chris - I still feel bad about it 20 years later 😒

Afraid I did this once. Left a band with a lovely group of younger guys as I had the opportunity to join a band playing at a higher level (supporting US touring Blues artists). Was given the gig only to turn up to the first rehearsal to hear they were already there, and someone was playing bass. Should have stuck with the first band.

Yes, I did Google the name and found them. Had to be really, as it is such an appropriate name.

Steve's suggestion is great, but if it doesn't sell I'd be tempted to reconfigure the other way to hear the 10 and 2 sixes as a standalone cab. How would the impedance work out with splitting the cab?

Having inadvertently hijacked an earlier thread, and at @snorkie635's suggestion, has anyone given themselves a stage name? My original post suggested place names were a good source, and, had I been a lot funkier mine would have been Rufus Stone. Once my Americana band gets gigging I'm thinking of going with the local 'beauty spot' Clent Hills. What's yours, and how did you come by it?

I quite fancy a stage name, and think towns and villages are a good source. If I was funky enough it would be Rufus Stone, but when the Americana band I'm now in gets gigging I think I'll become Clent Hills.
