  1. Here's one I wasn't aware of...
  2. Probably a longshot but is this still available?
  3. It is very fun to play!
  4. Yeah, usually a verse and a chorus of Enola Gay as it's pretty simple, or maybe more if it's a particularly faffy setup.
  5. As well as all the excellent points made above, I find having a good interaction with the audience helps, not just the reaction to what we've played. That can even happen afterwards, getting compliments is always nice
  6. I use one of these: https://www.thomann.de/gb/millenium_gs_3500_b.htm. It works very well, never had a problem with it.
  7. I would love to take it off your hands, and will even be in the midlands next week, but alas I don't think I'd have a use for it either so I suspect it'd just be a nice to have that gathers dust. I realise this is no help at all, but if you really don't get any decent offers I'm in Redditch next Tuesday and Wednesday and can try and think of a project to use it for to take it off your hands.
  8. It seems it's quite similar in not being consistent with candy apple red. When I had a CAR Jazz no photograph I took, in any lighting, really represented the actual colour of the bass in real life.
  9. A fairly in-depth view: I think this cements my decision to save for the Sadowsky. If it's $1150 then that means it'll be around £900 based on today's exchange rates, which means it should hopefully be a merry Christmas for me!
  10. All the current models are being heavily discounted everywhere at the moment so they're definitely imminent.
  11. I really like his bass playing (and enjoying playing Girls & Boys and Country House in our current set) but I went off him after he suggested that playing bass was easy. I know Dave Mustaine has said the same recently but I've always thought he was a bit of a See You Next Tuesday. The man does make some lovely cheese as well though.
  12. Great action shot!
  13. A friend of mine who is much more musically-educated likes to call that rhythm "the 12/8 plod" (see also Black Velvet, etc)
  14. And what used to be called their "all about the bass" series. It looks like Nathan King isn't doing so much of that as it mostly seems to be Lee and Cici these days.
  15. Sometimes a song is that easy/boring/repetitive that I just zone out, forget what I'm doing and it takes me a second to get back up to speed.
  16. Not just rock singers. I think calling Johnny Cash a singer would be quite charitable but it works.
  17. He's always played with a pick, I think.
  18. Oooh, birth year bass! Come on, the lottery win! GLWTS
  19. I've tried using Newtone Diamond round core stainless roundwound, but couldn't get on with them being so zingy to start, and they also ripped my fingers to shreds. I use the equivalent nickel model now and am much happier.
  20. Anfield Rap - John Barnes & Liverpool FC
  21. I can highly recommend the setup I have with an Ashdown ABM 600 and a Barefaced Two10, both bought secondhand (from some fine members of this site) so cost me £900 in total.
