The older I get, the more I appreciate my close musical friends...

Absolutely!

In the dazed haze... hard to say what I was thinking about here. Probably something like:


(((hmmm... does that bridge filter need to be a little more open?)))

Just realizing... In a few months I will get to 10 years of being the caretaker for my beloved Alembic (and also being member of this wonderful club!!!). Hoooray!!!!

(Edit: And also realizing I somehow managed to post this in the wrong thread... and cannot find a way to delete it by myself, so if any moderator can delete this... Or just leave it for the cheerfulness of it  )

A bit late but finally found a video of our first concert of our tour last December with Yoga Lin. In this video I'm rockin' the Series 1 with SF2+F1X. This was before I sent her back to the mothership for upgrades.


Full band comes in at 2:50

Here are a few more pics from one of my gigs last month.
Hopefully Mica will forgive me for covering the logo with my clip on tuner

Ah! you are using the Classico.  I'd love to hear some clips of it being used at your gigs.

Beautiful bass, Jazzyvee!  Looks like you and G of H use the same strap, what kind is it?  Looks like a good one. 

Yes we do. Its from a Greek company. Here is a link.

I have tried a few of the minotaur straps over the years and that one is by far the most comfortable with heavy basses and the leather is thicker.

Hammer, i have used it on one gig so far. As a complete novice I haven't enough hours on it or the technique to do a whole gig yet.
I did two tracks recorded by Stanley Clarke, 500 miles high and Sakura Sakura. There were a lot of phone cameras in action on thet gig but no-one i spoke to recorded 500 miles high which is really the one i felt went the best.

Playing my spoiler at my 50th birthday party last march.

...one more time.

Looks like a great way to celebrate 50 to me! I hope to do something like that for my 50th next month. Definitely, an Alembicized event.

Happy Birthday!

not a superb performance, but I'd like to show you, guys... (be nice)



I'm into bass solo arrangements which I can play chords and melodies along bass line at same time and still keep the original song recognizable. Not every tune permits that on 4 string bass. My old time pals would be surprise for the selection (we were jazz snobs at the 80s), but this one was perfect to my goal and I didn't even have to change a note to match bass open strings.

EX-cellent!!  (I would disagree - that WAS a superb performance!). Cool headstock addition, as well!
