Gettin back out on the road this week! Borrowed a 55-02 after selling my fender 5. When i gave it back, i ended up without a 5 string which…. turned into me ordering a 55-14 and buying this from @JupiterEye to hold me over. she’s a beaut and goes great with my US 44-60. 55-14 should be done in a couple months, can’t wait it show ya all

Got rid of the cream Dimarzio pickups, and put in these Nordy Vintage 60’s beauties. Sounds amazing - most 60’s swagger and less 70’s rock.

So off the back of my (excellent) Dual J arriving…I find myself with a spare US Dual J neck, effectively a 44-94 neck.

Anyone need one? Or anyone got a 44-01 body they want to sell? Not sure what to do with it haha.

A little more detail on the neck? Pic?

After a 3+ year hiatus I’ve finally landed a solid bass gig. Temping for now but hopeful it ends up more permanent. Regardless three solid jobs in and happy to be putting all this great gear into service!

Soundman had nice comments on the Glaub 5. First time ever experience 21” FOH subs as well.

It’s current state. I know, stickers are probably dumb but this one had a set the first time I saw it and it was one of the things that hooked me. At the time I thought they were actual inlays. But later learned they were stick on.

I removed them for a while but had the bug to try them again. These are not great but look ok. Cheap, and easy enough to peel off.

Thank you. I have to say it’s been an incredibly fun and challenging month. Learn 45 songs in three weeks, the first 17 of which will be played at a high profile, do t F it up multi act outdoor festival.

Then yesterday we roll into this incredible venue for another high profile, don’t F it up full job on our own.

Can’t wait to see where it all goes but just these two opportunities were as good as I’ve done in a long time.
