Was rained off early today so had a good couple of hours on the 71 Jazz.

Seriously considering buying a Fender Pro II P Bass in mystic surf green.
I like one pickup basses and need to make peace with that fact.

It’s nice to have options.
Rocked the Jazz through the big CTM-300 tonight in a 4 piece. Cool to change things up.

My bass has been living under my bed and my bass amp a glorified shelf for my laptop bag, I think I should bust it out tomorrow and make some noise!

rediscovered my love for Roads by Portishead, some lovely double stop bass action 
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Try and practice/play every day. Even if it’s just 30-45 minutes. Good for brain, hands, soul.

Make a hanger for it in the living room. Play it continuously. Don't be afraid to play the same line over and over - groove before notes.

I have three hangers / stands full of guitars behind me right now and they're all dusty, I don't think its the availability I need to work oncrowbgood1 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 21, 2023 9:10 amMake a hanger for it in the living room.

I do have a recording project I want to start so that might get me a bit more motivated!Slowy wrote: That's the problem; everything rewarding is just such hard work. Regret takes much less effort.
