A little arty stuff from the gig on the 14th with A little arty stuff from the gig on the 14th with @jaggedlittlealanis - have been working on the socials for the band to get things set up today and now http://www.jaggedlittlealanis.co.uk is pointed at our brand new linktree, complete with a ticket link for the gig at Facebar. We’ve got lots in the pipeline - stuff to shoot, things to record, a sound system to get to grips with for our own mixes… fun fun fun! . . #gig #musotips #musicianslife #musician #bass #bassguitar #bassguitarist #bassguitars #bassguitarclub #bassplayer #bassguitarplayer #baixonatural #bassplayers #bassfeatured #bassgram #thebasslink #basslove #bassplayersunited #basscover #weplaybass #notreble #lowend #bassfeatured #bassplayeruniverse #bassfeatured #bassline #bassistsofinstagram #musiciansofinstagram #instabass #instaofbass

Superb fun with @jaggedlittlealanis last Saturday Superb fun with @jaggedlittlealanis last Saturday evening at @queensparkarts in Aylesbury - many thanks to them for a smooth gig and a great bar 😁👍🏻 Photo dump will be coming up plus some video clips - right now, this one looks like I’m having way too much fun with the gorgeous @rikkersguitars Bodyline bass. . . #gig #musotips #musicianslife #musician #bass #bassguitar #bassguitarist #bassguitars #bassguitarclub #bassplayer #bassguitarplayer #baixonatural #bassplayers #bassfeatured #bassgram #thebasslink #basslove #bassplayersunited #basscover #weplaybass #notreble #lowend #bassfeatured #bassplayeruniverse #bassfeatured #bassline #bassistsofinstagram #musiciansofinstagram #instabass #instaofbass
Time for some bass cab housekeeping. This @warwick Time for some bass cab housekeeping. This @warwickbassesofficial 4x10 NEO cab has been an excellent workhorse and I’ve had it for a very long time - bought it at GAK (RIP 😢) in Brighton more than a decade ago - and the fabric on the back was coming off. The glue had turned to dust! Time for some tak while I chat with Nic and have a cuppa. MULTI TASKING ACHIEVED. . . #musotips #musicianslife #musician #bass #bassguitar #bassguitarist #bassguitars #bassguitarclub #bassplayer #bassguitarplayer #baixonatural #bassplayers #bassfeatured #bassgram #thebasslink #basslove #bassplayersunited #basscover #weplaybass #notreble #lowend #bassfeatured #bassplayeruniverse #bassfeatured #bassline #bassistsofinstagram #musiciansofinstagram #instabass #instaofbass
Excellent gig last night with the big version (9 p Excellent gig last night with the big version (9 people!) of the @willblakeband - led by the irrepressible Will on piano and lead Hammond. I got a great sound last night, the @rikkersguitars BodyLine sounded sublime with new @daddarioandco XL nickels on. That thing has so much tone! I met 7 new musicians, all of whom were amazing. Much chat ensued: stories of gigs, cruise ships, ferries and rough crossings. Yarr, these be old music sea dogs. Went with the @markbassamps 210 traveler, and it absolutely nailed it - my onstage monitoring was perfect. I could really use a backup @warwickbassesofficial LWA500! . . #gig #musotips #musicianslife #musician #bass #bassguitar #bassguitarist #bassguitars #bassguitarclub #bassplayer #bassguitarplayer #baixonatural #bassplayers #bassfeatured #bassgram #thebasslink #basslove #bassplayersunited #basscover #weplaybass #notreble #lowend #bassfeatured #bassplayeruniverse #bassfeatured #bassline #bassistsofinstagram #musiciansofinstagram #instabass #instaofbass
What a great gig, and what a venue! @willblakeband What a great gig, and what a venue! @willblakeband have excellent lights now - a gantry, no less - set up had an interlude while the power got turned back on after a low C on the bass killed it (just kidding, we don’t know what it was 🤣) Great crowd, really enjoyed themselves and danced solidly for both sets. It’s was Mariana’s second ABBA related gig of the day - she nailed it! My repaired @maruszczyk_instruments absolution 5a sounded great, such a great jazz tone. @mantoncustoms have done a great job replacing the truss rod. Action is just where I want it now. Bass solo was 100% @sourceaudio filter pedal, baby. FUNK IT UP. . . #gig #musotips #musicianslife #musician #bass #bassguitar #bassguitarist #bassguitars #bassguitarclub #bassplayer #bassguitarplayer #baixonatural #bassplayers #bassfeatured #bassgram #thebasslink #basslove #bassplayersunited #basscover #weplaybass #notreble #lowend #bassfeatured #bassplayeruniverse #bassfeatured #bassline #bassistsofinstagram #musiciansofinstagram #instabass #instaofbass
Time to get out to another gig… this time with t Time to get out to another gig… this time with the @willblakeband - another one next weekend! 2025 has yielded me a new case and pedalboard supplier I’m pretty impressed with. @ghostfireaudio gear is amazingly reasonable, and the guitar case in particular is excellent. About 50 pockets, mad little stowage everywhere. Excellent equipment. Pedalboard great too.

Happy bank holiday, everybody! This is a Bahian M Happy bank holiday, everybody! This is a Bahian Mohito. My congrats to Zips Bar as always ❤️
So after I fixed up and recased the Future Impact So after I fixed up and recased the Future Impact into a Future Compact, I completely ripped apart the huge Pedaltrain 80 board I built a few years back - it was impractical for most stages and had loads of stuff for looping and freeze etc - and rebuilt most of it onto a @ghostfireaudio board I found for SERIOUSLY reasonable moolah (like under £40 reasonable, WITH a good case!). This thing is actually really good - just like the guitar case I bought at the start of the year. Everything important is on there - @mooeraudio for downshifting on 4-strings and bitcrusher, the @bossinfoglobal OC-2, @sourceaudio filter and C4 synth, the Future Compact, my lovely @origineffects Cali76, a cheap and cheerful kliq tuner which works nicely and finally, the @mvaveofficial AnnBlackBox multifx, which has proved to be an excellent addition and now gives this board a headphone output. Awesome. Top it off with SmoothHound’s wireless and it’s perfect and finally easy to transport. Still have full midi control of patch selection plus twin expression pedals on the C4 and Future Compact via my FCB1010! Win! . . #gig #musotips #musicianslife #musician #bass #bassguitar #bassguitarist #bassguitars #bassguitarclub #bassplayer #bassguitarplayer #baixonatural #bassplayers #bassfeatured #bassgram #thebasslink #basslove #bassplayersunited #basscover #weplaybass #notreble #lowend #bassfeatured #bassplayeruniverse #bassfeatured #bassline #bassistsofinstagram #musiciansofinstagram #instabass #instaofbass
