Speaking of pedals, I just scored a bass big muff pi from my local pawn shop for $40. It looks brand new. I LOVE fuzz and I've been wanting this pedal for a while, I'm super stoked I found it for such a good deal. Not many people in my life that would appreciate this so figured I'd share here.
You know what, I think any bass player would spot the nail clippers and just go "YES", there's nothing like ruining your bass tones with clickety clackety fingers. Ian wins on that one. Oh and More Shanon podcasts please, she's awesome!!!
Anytime Ian and Sharon are doing a podcast. I know it’s gonna be amazing. Ian could be talking about nail clippers and dusting, and Sharon looking like she’d rather be camping… I mean, did she text Dash, and have him play the “mom needs you now” card? Have Birthday Sharon! I hope it was magical. You guys are AWESOME!
Absolutely loved this episode. Your dynamic together is wonderful. The suggestions were practical as hell. Really a treat to listen to. Thanks for this!
I mean I don't mind the pod on the main channel, as long as the spirit of it doesn't change, the episodes don't get shorter etc - I'm here for the personalities of Ian and Scott!
Keep it here! It makes them easier to find. I usually just listen in the car, but when I hear that you are showing something interesting then I come over here to check it out. If they are on the main channel that will make the episodes harder to find. - Keep up the great work! All the bass!
I have a 12lb swamp ash p bass. That seatbelt strap would dig into my shoulder with that bass! I recently got the Levy 4in padded strap and its perfect for comfort and distributing the weight - get that for your loved ones if they've ever complained about their bass weight or strap comfort.
my addition to gear you want under $50 would be a Victorinox swiss army knife (if they don't already have one) something like the 'compact' with a nailfile, scissors, screwdrivers etc. or another good quality multitool with useful stuff for a gig
I've found the ones with the combination pliers on them is the most useful thing ever. That one thing alone is great for cutting light gage wires and maneuvering things in tight spots (I have big fingers). When I got mine, I thought I would never use it, but it's become what I use probably 85% of the time I get my knife out.
Great podcast. So relaxed and funny. These ones with Sharon and Ian is really a gem. And Sharon, congrats in arrears.This might be over the budget but a nice 60´s jazz bass could also be a nice present. I´ve never got one but I got a pair of nail clippers once that was kind of nice. Cheers Marcus
Let me say, for me, the boujee nail clipper would be a BIG win as gift IMO. Also, don't sleep on the tc electronic 3rd dimension as a budget alternative for the Boss dimension c.
Shazz is amazing! Keep the channel small. I know you want to go big, but this is so cozy. I'm torn. LOL! Dunlop greenies are my favorite. I think they're .88s. I like a little flex in the pick. I have a wide 3.5 or 4 inch leather strap I bought at Guitar Center 40 years ago on my main bass, a '92 Guild Pilot. I play some heavy basses...a Ric, a Univox Lucite bass, and I have a Schekter baritone that's really heavy. I wear my strap out on my shoulder joint, so the bones are taking most of the weight of the bass, not the muscles that lie closer to my neck. I've never had a neck or upper back problem from a heavy instrument, and a Ric was my main bass for many years. Those quarter inch sheet metal plugs are sheer genius, Ian. What size are those rubber washers you use as strap locks? Thanks for all you guys do!
A soft brush is a must when you do gigs on beaches. The sand gets in everywhere and if you just wipe it off with a cloth, the sand grains will leave scratches on your bass. You'll need a very soft dust brush for removing sand, not a paint brush.
Nail clipper... hmm... got to be a "cool nail clipper" like a Motorhead nail clipper, otherwise is probably something you already have around the house. I found from the MarkBass site a couple of nice sock fillers with the Mark Stand and MarkBass Bass Keeper. Sheet metal 1/4" plugs are still my #1 gift.
hey. happy belated thanksgiving. Ha something different for under $50. UK - Elites Groundwound 105-45 strings... It is a different experience. Feels like stainless steel flatwound; sounds like in between round and flat, A M A Z I N G .. happy days.:) tones are so so great.
Hey!!! I totally agree, "there is dust in your life". And no joking....I GOT THAT SAME BRUSH in my room. And yes I clean my mixconsole, bass bridge, pickups etc. with it every day! I LOVE IT! 😃
Love the strap conversation. Not a seatbelt strap fan as a lot of my 5 string basses are a bit neck heavy and they slide. Though I have a number of the Couch vinyl straps and they are epic. Also, as an Irishman I can't own anything that is black and tan combined! Treating myself to one of those Couch Aladdin Sane bass straps. Have a sparkly pink Sire 5 string that I reckon it would look great with. This is great fun, more Sharon and Ian bass chats please 😁
Hahaha, had to look at the transcript, every paragraph has Shaz doing the American thing... at least three unnecessary "like"s. So noticeable if you're not young :-) "never used to double book and now I feel like I go into every day with like the fear of like oh oh God I feel like I D"
What is the weird-looking silver left hand fretless bass sitting on the floor behind Ian's right shoulder? And why does he have a left-hand bass anyway?!
Not a single recommendation for good books to learn harmony, scales, etudes,etc...I don't think most gear will help anyone as much as actually learning more deeply about music.....though of course, it's clear that adding another bass to our collection MIGHT make us better?
Love Ian and Scott, but if they both -plus this guest-would just NEVER use the word “like”- the literary equivalent of a “selfie”- both are “likeaholics”-selfies and “like” are just plain lazy and narcissistic -their program would be far more listenable, and they would sound much more intelligent and self-aware.

Have Birthday Sharon! I hope it was magical.
You guys are AWESOME!
I'm catching up on all this great older material. I love Ian. But I LOVE Sharon!! And you guys are great together
Absolutely loved this episode. Your dynamic together is wonderful. The suggestions were practical as hell. Really a treat to listen to. Thanks for this!
The leather pick holder is great! You can lose all your picks at once with that!
DEAD. This wins comment of the year for me.
Seeing Sharon laugh at the paint brush is the best part of the episode.
Yay! Sharon! Love this silly podcast :)
I mean I don't mind the pod on the main channel, as long as the spirit of it doesn't change, the episodes don't get shorter etc - I'm here for the personalities of Ian and Scott!
Definitely. The chat and the random Star Wars references....😂
@@engineer6250 Yes!!
Yeah exactly!
Ian you are a special kind of nerd but this is a new level! Don't ever change you big beautiful bass man.
Also i kinda love the pod as it is 🥸
Thanks for a great video, very talented Lady & Gentleman, ie: Sharon & Ian. Hope you both had great thanks giving days !
I can see a care package stuffed with these things would be great. It depends on the bass player's likes and or dislikes. I'd love that pink bass!!
Keep it here! It makes them easier to find. I usually just listen in the car, but when I hear that you are showing something interesting then I come over here to check it out. If they are on the main channel that will make the episodes harder to find. - Keep up the great work! All the bass!
Sunbeams are a necessity. That string episode converted me, I had no idea
The paintbrush 👏🏻that’s my thing
Love this vibe and hope that it still feels like a hang if it ends up on the main.
You DEFINITELY need more SBL gear in the SBL Shop. You gotta sell that sick SBL two-tone leather strap!
I have a 12lb swamp ash p bass. That seatbelt strap would dig into my shoulder with that bass! I recently got the Levy 4in padded strap and its perfect for comfort and distributing the weight - get that for your loved ones if they've ever complained about their bass weight or strap comfort.
I 2nd the couch straps, they are amazing!! I started buying them last year and haven't looked back.
Happy belated, Sharon!

Bought myself a short scale hollow body with flats for Christmas 😍 But it was a little bit over $50 😂
Nice nail clipper in the bass case is so clutch. It lives in the gig bag. I hate forgetting it and have to bite my nails on the gig. Barf!
Shazz is amazing! Keep the channel small. I know you want to go big, but this is so cozy. I'm torn. LOL!

More Sharon. She's always excellent

20:30 for the relevant discussion (no offence guys, I enjoyed the waffle!)....
Loving this! Never would have thought of some of these, and some I never knew existed! ❤😊
No, leve the podcast on this channel only, I feel special by beeing part of this family atmosphere, cosy warm podcast/channel.
Awsome as always 🎉 Anyone else who thinks Ian kind of sounds like Stewie from family guy sometimes 😂? "Treat yourself with a little gift maybe?"
Is Ian the sorta guy to get his kids like a pack of pipe cleaners for their birthday or somethin? "Think of all the uses!"
I got a nail clipper full grooming set in a wallet size. I got a second one for my gig bag.
Nail clipper... hmm... got to be a "cool nail clipper" like a Motorhead nail clipper, otherwise is probably something you already have around the house. I found from the MarkBass site a couple of nice sock fillers with the Mark Stand and MarkBass Bass Keeper. Sheet metal 1/4" plugs are still my #1 gift.

A set of makeup brushes are great for dusting basses, Knick knacks, etc.
You had me laughing out loud at the brush.
The Blues Driver is the shit. I sold my bass overdrive and use only my early 2000s BD-2
Otis Redding and Nick Drake both passed at 26 and Ian with the paint brush ASMR
Hey!!! I totally agree, "there is dust in your life". And no joking....I GOT THAT SAME BRUSH in my room. And yes I clean my mixconsole, bass bridge, pickups etc. with it every day! I LOVE IT! 😃
that was fun ... but I'm waiting for a proper nail clipper review ......watch ...there it flies ...hmm, must bee very sharp
Yep! The Brush rules!
Every time I get a tone brush, somebody takes it to paint with!
You know what else comes in at under $50? A decent compression plugin that would help even out Sharon's dynamics whenever she goes "YES!!!" 😂
i got a seki nail clipper but i think greenbell is the same brand. Both are made in japan. they are sooo goood
Fun and funny, thanks
I just brought myself half of these for a new bass. Now i have ideas for presents that other people can get me. I just need to learn telepathy 😅
Ian putting the sheet metal plug into the guitar input of the OC-3 hurt me LOL. Guitar input > Bass Input
Love seat belt straps.
I think you should have clips from the podcast on the main SBL channel with direction to this channel for the full episodes.
You can also play with the brush, try it
These two could be talking about shocks still watch 😂
Would absolutely love to hear Ian and a podcast partner talk about inear monitoring, bodypacks and headphones, totally lost in this topic !
Bought myself a rumble 500 head for christmas😌😌😌
Love the strap conversation. Not a seatbelt strap fan as a lot of my 5 string basses are a bit neck heavy and they slide. Though I have a number of the Couch vinyl straps and they are epic.

omg Warwick finally mentioned in an SBL podcast. am I dreaming?! Thank you SHARON!!! lmao
My wife gave me a kit with nail clippers and files once. I loved it! The quality was crap though :/
Nail clippers to cut strings?
The production and approach it has now is fine but yeah only having to sub to the one channel is a winner for the uninitiated
Gerber , leatherman style multi use tool
Kinda want those sheet metal plugs not gonna lie
You forgot Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix ... at least. Brian Jones
I think the podcast is cool on its own channel or moved to the main - Janek actually just did that with his too
In the event that you don't want to hear the chit chat and want to get into the gifts, the first gift is at 24:24
Hahaha, had to look at the transcript, every paragraph has Shaz doing the American thing... at least three unnecessary "like"s. So noticeable if you're not young :-)
"never used to double book and now I feel like I go into every day with like the fear of like oh oh God I feel like I D"
I’ve seen nail clippers for sale at local guitar store

Those words above are not meant to be crossed out!
