Kalwynn Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Hi there everyone, I'm a 36 year old guy from France. Since I'm a teenager I've been deeply interested in 80's music and pop culture. I used to have the Miami Vice soundtrack in audio tape ("Own the night" !!!). I've been to Miami and Florida and loved it (go Heat !), best vacation of my life ! So it was pretty obvious I had to apply here and join your community ! I own several little items linked with our favorite series and I'd like to share musical suggestions to improve my knowledge of the "Miami Vice sound" ! Looking forward to read about you !

Kalwynn Posted April 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Btw, here are some pics of where I spend most of my free time in France (Quiberon peninsula). Don't you think there's a little Florida Keys flavour about it ? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalwynn Posted April 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) Glad to know there are some bassists around here ? Do you own "80's style" instruments ? I have a S2000 headlesss Status bass, it looks very eighties. I also guess some of you have precious knowledge about Carrera 5512 sunglasses... would you mind giving me your opinion about these : Edited April 9, 2018 by Kalwynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted April 10, 2018 Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) I posted my take in the 5512s in another thread just now. Lemme know if you don’t see it. The only 80s bass I have is a 1983 Ibanez RB888 that I had converted to a fretless when I was a teenager so it would look exactly like Sting’s from “The Soul Cages” tour in 1991. The rest are old Fenders. I use Aguilar and Ampeg amps and no pedals, except for an occasional 80s Boss OC-2 with the fretless. I have used my old MXR Flanger with it before, too.

Sorry Dadrian, didn't notice or pay enough attention to your answer. Yes I do remember this 80's Ibanez shapes. This one looks especially "narrow", didn't know Sting used it on tour. Aguilar and Ampeg are great amps, love them ! Except for my Status S2000, I have two others 80's basses : a 1985 Washburn Force 42 headless, and a 1989 5-string ABT. I'd like to have the 2nd defretted. I used pedals sometimes, but few of them (MXR phase 100, Aguilar filter twin) and currently use a TC Electronic amp (before that, Trace Elliot used to be my favs). I'm no good player at all, at least I love to play ^^ Edited April 28, 2018 by Kalwynn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalwynn Posted May 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 (edited) Didn't notice your last post. I sure do ! My girlfriend and I rented a small yacht this weekend, as an Airbnb vacation. I felt a little bit like Sonny, even if Elvis was missing ! Edited May 21, 2018 by Kalwynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
