    casino gigs?

    in Low Down Lowdown

    Is this something new Eric? We knew nothing of this when we played the Kewadin Casino in St. Ignace a couple of times about 8 years ago. Maybe our booking agent we had at the time took care of it. Either way it was a great gig!

    that is worth re-learning and rearranging. my most recent work is in my signature. what y'all think?

     

    I liked it. I agree with plangent that the drums (mainly the snair) was a bit too dry. The singer has a great voice and if she could have dubbed in a harmony above her vocal in the chorus that would have made quite an impact for me.

    Pimping the Palmer vs new fretless?

    I never think it's a good a idea to throw money at an inexpensive bass, unless you have some extra money and want to practice your woodworking and electronic skills.

     

    I am actually with you on that one, Jeremy. For one, I have absolutely no woodworking or electronic skills - something I proved amply mid-nineties when I "threw away" a year in tech school, failing all tech classes and aceing all the language / history / general education classes :grin:

     

    The things I mentioned would have cost almost no money but if it's not something you're prepared to do the I would just sell it off and get that Squier you mentioned. I've tried a couple very nice fretless models that were not that expensive.

    Since you have nothing to lose why not try pimping your bass.

    Why not? :idk If it goes bad you can try one of the other things or get that Squier.

     

    Get a radiused sanding block, remove the nut and lightly sand the fingerboard smooth. Then glue the nut back on. Put some dots in. Geoff's idea sounds pretty easy so give it a try. As far as the wiring, if you're good with a soldering iron find a schematic and give it a go. Otherwise get a tech to help you out. You'll learn lots working on your bass and you'll get a lot of satisfaction when it turns out.
