New (to me) bass being picked up today....

Mexi Jazz five string. I won't see it for a couple weeks, as it's being picked up by someone their way to Wellington, brought back when they return. Because cash converters in palmy wouldn't ship - and pack and send would have been $cary I think.

They keep telling me tone is in the fingers, but I have yet to see a "look at my fingers" thread.

UAFX Ruby! I’m really looking forward to moving into a direct rig at lower volume for as many of my gigs as is practical.

Also have had my Herdim Picks delivered recently, and an eBow, and really feeling fired up to get some tribute shows happening

At least it wasn't a White Rhino.... NZ postal services constantly have me shaking my head.





Just addressing the Rhino in the room ;)

haha yes I am. My Springsteen and Pink Floyd projects are basically on pause this year, due to various reasons including people who are not available, not wanting to play too much and bore the public, etc, etc.

So I have started a U2 tribute show, which is in the early stages but coming along nicely. Built a sweet direct pedalboard and have learned a full set - just need a black beanie and I'll be away

Time to see if they're as good as the hype.
Don't talk to me about failure; sometimes I even fail to disappoint myself.
