Last 3 basses for sale!! All of them are 100% original 1987 Ibanez RB800 basses with their original hardshell cases. I'd like to sell them as a complete set then you'd only need to find a white one to have every color that was offered and I will give you the contact info of a possible seller that has a white one. Ibanez only made this model (pointed headstock) in 1987 before they started the Soundgear line. They are all in VERY good condition including the cases. They are increasingly hard to find especially in all original condition like these are!! $2,400 FIRM for ALL 3 basses!!! @bass_on_broadway #bassforsale #bassonbroadway #ibanez #ibanezbass #ibanezfanclub #RB800 #vintage #vintagebass #1987 #bass #bassplayer #bassplayersunited #nashvillebassist #Nashville #forsale

Wanna hear the 30th Anniversary Stingray at soundcheck? I like these noodly videos. I don't really get the chance to shred or slap or really use harmonics very often (although I do try to fit it in whenever I can! Lol) so it's cool to hear back what my basses sound like in the room. I've had as many as 23 basses in my collection but I'm shaving that down to my favorite 5 and this Stingray is definitely a keeper!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍 @michael_jams_pisculli @music_man #bassonbroadway #nashvillebassist #nashvillemusician #nashville #bass #bassplayer #bassplayersunited #bassist #professionalbassist #Musicman #musicmanstingray5 #musicmanstingray #musicman #stingray #gearreview

Broke out the '78 last night. Little sound sample for ya AND you get to hear my amazing voice too!! 🤣 That bass is a beast and sounds so good on that GK Legacy 800 and GK 4x12 cab at the Stage rooftop, should've turned up a little more though! Next time 😁 @michael_jams_pisculli #bassonbroadway #nashvillebassist #nashvillemusician #nashville #bass #bassplayer #bassplayersunited #bassist #bassporn #gearreview #fender #fenderpbass #precision #fenderprecision

Last amp post! That rig behind me is my favorite downtown. An AMAZING Bergantino 4x12 with my little Fender Rumble 500 amp at Whiskey River just slays! The entire room/PA/monitors/backline is just perfect IMHO! I don't use that house Ampeg SVT head cause it just never sounds good to me. Amps downtown take a LOT of abuse and having an all tube head turned on 16+ hours a day 7 days a week just beats that thing up bad so I bring mine for that room and quite frankly (here comes another unpopular opinion) its just an all around better amp. If this was the only stage I played I'd be a very happy bass player. This backline gets six out of 5 stars!! Lol... 💫💫💫💫💫💫 @michael_jams_pisculli #bassonbroadway #gearreview #nashvillebassist #Nashville #bass #bassplayer #bassplayersunited #bassist #bergantino #fender #fenderrumble500 #musicmanstingray #whiskeyriver #downtownnashville

So, you want to be a Nashville bassist? Think it's easy? Just cover songs right? No big deal, right? Well check this out.... I picked up a gig for this coming Saturday morning and the band leader sent me his set list. It might actually just be a duo with him (I hope so, he's a badass and that would be super fun). Looking through it I honestly know 154 songs solid, have at least played another 20+ in the past but don't necessarily have them memorized, and feel 100% confident I can read a chart for, at least most of, all the rest. How many do you know? You think you can be ready to play any one of these songs if called, live on stage in 5 days???? Hmmmm???? ✌️ @michael_jams_pisculli #bassonbroadway #nashvillebassist #professionalbassist #nashville #broadway #broadwaynashville #bass #bassplayer #bassplayersunited #bassclef #readcharts #sightreading

This was a nice surprise! Showed up to my gig at Nudies and this little bad boy was there, a GK Legacy 2x12! Haven't played here in a while and last time I did one of those garbage Ampeg combos was here. This baby is right there with the Rumble 500 and I'd even say it's a little better since I prefer 12" speakers over 10's & 15's so she gets a 4.1 out of 5 stars 💫💫💫💫 @michael_jams_pisculli #bassonbroadway #nashvillebassist #nashville #professionalbassist #bass #bassplayer #bassist #GK #musicmanstingray #bfr #gearreview #bassamp #Legacy
