  1. I have a regular Ray 3 band that’s about twenty years old ,I don’t really compare it to other basses , it’s got a unique thing going on . And I like it. 
    I usually gig with something that’s more thumpy , but for home practice that Ray stays beside the couch.

  2. The gnome is on my radar as something to check out , I’m pretty well amped up , but more likely to see an amp than a bass show up on the doorstop. No local dealers.

    edit 

    it appears there are no Warwick dealers in Canada

  3. Old Pbass guy that loves a nice Ric and acquired many of the classics over the years , somehow got hooked on Danelectros. Don’t know just how it happened but I’m ok with it.

    They weigh next to nothing , sound great and are a heck of a lot of fun to play.

    Also developing a thing for Gibson short scales.

    I loved his playing both with Canned Heat but especially John Mayall. I hadn’t realised until reading it recently that he had worked on some of the Wrecking Crew recordings - I believe Max Bennett also did. 

    Check out the Hollywood Fats stuff he did , some more things have been surfacing but they just released one album , and it became such a major influence for so many. Deadly little band.

    Their classic take of Rock This House …

  5. I watch the local kijiji site like a hawk and have noticed the price creep in private online sales and regular retail , oh there’s the occasional deal , those tend to go quickly , but a surprising amount of things do not seem to be selling right now. I keep seeing the same items being relisted . Usually without any drop in price. And at prices I consider high. 
    I ‘m glad to think there’s nothing I need.

  6. Looking forward to throwing the stuff in the car and driving downtown tonight. 
    Harvest Moon weekend , Halifax is a University town and the students are back. Thankfully the old dive I’m in tonight is slightly off the beaten track , and the students will be elsewhere. 
    We’ll see what the night brings.
