I hope I am not overwhelming you guys with clips to check out, but I keep stumbling into them and I don't want to lose track of them, or not share what I think you guys will like.

Here is great slap BN6 solo by David Hughes again. That tone -- oh my George F., you are SO GOOD!

His BN6 is 6 string bro of my BN5 NYC :) David is really great :) Sound is awesome! It's really interesting what amp or combo he uses.

Thanks Tom... you always come up with interesting things for us to see or hear.... Don't worry about flooding us.. If I may, I see that your location is Alaska... What do you do up there and what is a steel band doing up there??? Just curious I guess!!! Cheers and take care!!! I find myself interested in your opinion as you have a massif F Bass collection, and therefore it's good to have a fellow bassist to be able to rely on to sometimes answer questions about different things....:)

I have a house in Utah too (where some of our kids are going to college). The steel drum band is in Utah.

I rely on everyone at talkbass for opinions, as you could see with my seeking advice for the steel drum gig.

I love being able to tap the experience of others -- and save me a misstep or two.

Great.. I find the same thing. We can come in here and ask for advice about many different things, even just a bass stand for example.. lol.... and get advice from other bass players... BTW, how is that steel drum gig coming? Have you found the right bass to play??? You have such a collection, you should be able to find the right one for sure... If not, maybe I'll send you my old 70's P Bass.. lol Take care and talk soon!!! :)

Well, there is an interesting twist. The steel drum band landed 3 gigs that I absolutely cannot play due to scheduling conflicts that I cannot change, so I'm out.

That's a shame, but before that happened I found that the problem with the bass not being punchy enough for the musical director was in my Roland rig (the settings got jostled and were not where I meant for them to be). I swapped that out for my Demeter head + El Whappo cabinet, then went to BN6E Replica and everyone loved it.

I'm heading to san Diego this week and have some time during the day to kill. Might head over to Bass San Diego and drool on some F Basses!
How fun! They have some really nice Fbasses to drool over as well.
