Will Cherry flavoured Gin do? Vodka disagree's Ralph. 🙂✌️

Stu of course! Stuart on the sabbath or in when in work! 🤣

Agreed, when I tought myself to play guitar after years of playing bass I noticed it was easier to hide behind distortion or effects or even fluffing chords or solos. You always find a way back, however you funk up playing bass you really funk up. There's no hiding there!. 🙂👍

I love John Deacon but he's not a patch on John Paul Jones, another James Jamerson fan. Lemon song nails it for me. 🙂👍

I started learning to play bass at 13 on an old Sattelite P Bass copy with flats. I learned from a book called "Standing in the shadows of Mowtown" which came with a cassette tape. I ended up playing James Jamersons bass part on this tune for my final school exam. IMO if you can play like James...

Agreed, here's my main plonker.

Welcome! 🙂👍

Will she take a "Wrecking Ball" to "The Wall" approach to recording this said album? Just asking for a friend! 🤣

I used to own an early 2009 CIC Classic Vibe 50's Tele. I remember the quality being immense on those early Classic Vibes so when I saw this I thought no brainer. 🙂👍

2009 CIC Classic Vibe Jazz purchased on a whim from Reverb as I was needing a full sized bass. Anyhow here she is! Needed a bloody good clean and a setup but plays great. The tone pot seems shot but i'm planning on upgrading the pots and capacitor anyway so no big deal. Frets are good, neck is...
