Aguilar Tone Hammer DI / Pre-amp / Bass transcriptions
I have been using one of these Di boxes for about two months now and am finding it super sweet as a DI. Highly recommended.

That’s all for now folks.

New Transcription: Wes Montgomery’s solo on Billie’s Bounce (1958)
Hi all!
So finally I’ve got round to doing a few jazz transcriptions to put up on the site. Here’s the first one – two heads of Billie’s Bounce by Wes Montgomery, showing that you don’t have to play a lot of notes nor stray too far from the blues scale to still sound great. Check it out on the new page ‘solos’ in the ‘transcriptions’ menu.
Enjoy!

Fun times….and new transcriptions to come…
So its been a busy few months moving house (who knew how much time it takes to paint / decorate etc!) hence the lack of transcriptions. There are some new ones on the way once I dig them out and finish them off. So watch this space!
In other news, back in the studio today with Sharks Took The Rest, filming a video for the new Nick Pride and the Pimptones single and The Slowlight Quartet are plotting to record a cheeky EP and possibly a video too. Fun times!
