This is my entry video for the Ampeg/Bass guitar magazine competition to play at the first ever London bass day! There's a few covers and original stuff too... I even threw in a little bit of cheeky slap for you funk fanatics. Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy it.

Yeah, she's an LX. Couldn't afford the stage 1. But its a cool bass, got it in 2008. I've recently restrung it E to high F. After some manic bridge fiddling... Its starting to sound good! The chordal stuff has a load more clarity and with a bit of reverb... Phwoar! She sounds beautiful! Gonna record some new videos soon. Thanks for watching mate.

I'm afraid it's bass all the way for me. But I'm glad you can see the acoustic vibe I'm going for in my compositions! I get loads of inspiration from people like Tommy Emmanuel and Andy McKee. But as for playing it on acoustic... It's a bit girlie for me. Bass is a MAN's INSTRUMENT! Oh no he didn't! :-)

Thank you to everybody for supporting my video! It's great having the feedback. And good luck to you guys who are entering the competition too.
