I’m a full time musician and have been for the last 17 years
I teach in schools during the week and gig when ever I can.
since lockdown- no gigs and no schools (and very little chance of getting back in this side of Christmas)
I have had to teach via zoom to try and cover my outgoings. i received £1700 via seiss last time and will receive something in the next round in August.
I am also going to have to look into a mainstream job, if things don’t pick up. 😢
Is this kind of thing you’re after?

I use mine to power my Scarlett 2i2 interface
The Ibanez talman pinches way above its price
also the reissue aria pro igb retailing around £250 are good.
the Westfield p bass copies on amazon at around £110 were particularly of note, but they seem to have moved their production, so not too certain any more 😉
I used to regularly play one of my bc rich warlocks in church, and in fact I did so on tv 😉
don’t know if there’s any video of it though 🤷♂️
does that count?
The originals yes, but the ones I’m seeing now aren’t, neither are they/ were made in Nagoya ( not for quite some time)
edit: now I’ve seen a dual p platinum on eBay but it has the terrible ‘testicle rest/ droopy boobs headstock 😢
Trouble is that I’m picky.
I only pay passive basses live now.
I’m not a fan of actives at all now 😳
bc rich has not produced any passive basses for quite some time leaving me with increasingly few options. 😢😢
I’ve been a proud owner of a couple of double p basses for a little while.
I’m told my Kramer has a twin p config and has a multitude of pup configured since it has a varitone switch.
I have also been rocking a dual p mockingbird for a couple of years- as well as lusting after another mock and eagle and warlock ( all with the same combination! 😳)
as previously noted, the bridge pup adds meat to any j in that position. Huge tones available.
I played one not long after they came out with the #1 design.
it was quite simply the best p bass I had played.
I would not buy one though down to the logo. I despise most football.
I have now got, as one of my go to instruments, a blue sparkle cij sh sig. amazing bass. Easily as good as the #1 mim if not better 🤘🤘
I really like my lh500.
simple, no frills amp.
it’s my backup for my Marshalls.
it’s all about taste really, but crap distribution is, as already noted several times, a highway to brand destruction
