Bilbo Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 [quote name='Shockwave' timestamp='1451055938' post='2938058'] Bachs 6 cello suites for bass transcription. Will never learn it but looks cool to bust out a few seconds of it! [/quote] I have had these for years. They are great for going back to again and again for reading, technique and particularly bowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr zed Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 A copy of 'how the Fender bass changed the world' from my good lady wife. Fantastic book, a great read. I also thought it was a great book when I got it for Christmas from her last year. Didn't have the heart to tell her! Oh......and I also got socks and under crackers which I shall also play my bass in throughout the year. A gift that keeps on giving! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrevorR Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) Nothing directly bass related but my lovely wife did give me this fab early 80s NWOBHM/AOR CD by a band called Grand Prix (it has a nice photo of an alu-necked Kramer on the cover) and the Classic Albums Blu-Ray of the making of 2112 and Moving Pictures...

There is context about the state that Fender was in in the late 70s, the rise of the Japanese makers, the new team brought into Fender and then stuff on all the different models... Plus Tony Bacon always hits a nice balance between readability and geeky detail! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 On Christmas day I was treated to a Snark Tuner and Herco plectrums which are two very small but very necessary things. Tomorrow (technically today) I'll be treated to a Stingray 5 string and a Line6 G30 courtesy of Andydye and Guitarguitar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
