Thanks Marcelo!

Awesome! Love to see the old school still rocking!!! What’s that “plate” (don’t know how to call it) on your bass? What’s its purpose?

[@AJs-guitar-bass]

Hi thanks for watching and for your comment! That is simply a bridge cover that this model of Jazz Bass came with. It’s a 74 American Vintage model. It also has a pickup cover which I don’t use. Thanks again! Cheers! Andy

@@AJs-guitar-bass it’s a beautiful bass indeed. Tks for the clarification. Cheers from Brazil.

Thank you Ricardo! What part of Brazil? I’ve been to Rio once - amazingly beautiful city!!! Thanks! Andy

[@ricardoramos1242]

@@AJs-guitar-bass I’m from Curitiba, south region of Brazil. Rio de Janeiro is a popular place to visit, but you should come back and go to other states. Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina for example has too many beautiful beaches, mountains and canyons and more to the center of the state a lot of beautiful nature places.

[@AJs-guitar-bass]

Thank you for the information Ricardo! Would love to be able to visit again and see those places!!

Again - wow - what amp are you using?

[@AJs-guitar-bass]

Tech21 Landmark 120. Overdrive set at about 7

You still have that LP ? I used to have it . I move too much 😒 Mel has watered his tone down now and days . I can't get the tone. Thinking about putting a kicker box on my amp and see what happens . I bet he blew 100 tubes in that concert lol

[@AJs-guitar-bass]

Well, I have the CD! :-). And yes Mel’s tone is quite different now compared to then. It changed after the E Pluribus Funk and Survival albums as I recall. Thanks for your comment. I use a Tech21 Landmark 120 amp with the overdrive turned to about 7 to try to get a similar tone to his old tone.

@@AJs-guitar-bass Thanks for the reply . I love the old stuff . I know that the tone that Mel had was referred as buffalo farts by many back in the day . I bought a ticket to see Grand Funk in July but the concert was put off until December due to a member having covid . I could had got my money back but I kept the ticket in good faith for December . Keep doing some Good Mel and Grand Funk .
