Thank you very much for yet another super great lesson.

That bass sounds like heaven. And, although I'm not (ort try not to be) a chauvinist, it has the coulours of my country's flag and the one of football national selection shirt . Two days ago our team (Lionel Messi's team) classified for the soccer world championship in Russia, after a long, hard and winding road. So, your playing and bass just moved me! Talking seriously, thanks for explaining slowly what for you is simple, but, for many of us, difficult. By the way, there's something on short scale basses that make the G string sound warmer and colorfull than the regular scale ones. This is particulary notable here.

its nice when we play easy lick and gives us huge sound and looks like hard stuff 👍

Cool riff. I dig the white pickups, too. Do they ship as an option on the new basses or do I have to dip into my 80s spare parts bag. :)
