The Bass Zone / Sweet d'Buster
March 11, 2025, 08:12:36 AM
For all the Spotify members. The '79 live album Gigs by Sweet d'Buster is available now.

Bass player Herman Deinum plays with a P, steel rounds and a Marshall stack, but it are his bass parts. Check the song Manja which is like one long bass solo with a bass solo in the end. Gorgeous. The whole album is a bass masterclass and the overall vibe is pop/rock meets prog.

Band leader, singerm and saxophone player is Bertus Borgers. He played on a lot of Herman Brood & His Wild Romance  albums and he toured the US woth the Golden Earring.

Ohja, ik zie het nu! Eigenlijk een moderne draailier dus! What is that in English? Hurdy gurdy?

it means the edhes are a bit les sharp and more roundes, as if you played it for a long time. I once had two review basses in, with the same nut width. The rolled edge one, felt thinner. Like a bound neck can feel a bit wider sometimes. I like narrow necks so I lik those rolled edges.

I think it's time to enter Austrian singer Falco and Dutch producers Bolland & Bolland.

Love it and Gold Guitar and Black Bass is a good find!

In this colour with the white rings it would be the perfect bass for Brian Ray of Paul McCartney. He plays bass and guitar during the set and this one looks like his signature guitar!

The Bass Zone / Re: Blu DeTiger?

I met Blu, she has a Dutch father, and she's great.

I mentioned all of this before.
It's interesting how things change. I know people reacted badly when the first Youtubers got a signature. Like MarloweDK. Now it's normal and people seem to love the Rick Beato sigs. Now a Tiktok player gets a signature. I don't mind. I have some friends who are bass teachers. Most new students - especially female students - pick up the bass because of people like Blu or Victoria from Maneskin. If you like them or not - and we old grumpy Bassoutposters aren't their audience - thy're good for bass world. As long as people make kids pick up the bass it's good for music world, for the instrument industry, for bass mags and websites. So yeah: Great for Blu!

My new Goldfoil Jazz has the bindings and dots too and I love it!

Hi guys. I fell in love with the looks of the blue GoldFoil Jazz. I like narrow J necks, but I prefer the P sound more. This isn't a P sound but a very nice sound and I still love the looks. I got a great deal on one, some weeks ago, so I bought it.

Maybe you guys can help. I can't find anything about the pickup. The guitar Goldfoils seem to be humbuckers, but I think this is a single coil? The housing is Rickenbacker-ish. Any idea about the brand and whereabouts?

Epiphone just anounced a fretless JCS. It has a nice burst too. Would be cool to see that colour fretted too.
