I got an announcement in my email that Stanley Clarke is playing at The Freight and Salvage in Berkeley on June 13th. I was wondering if anyone here was going. I'll be the dude who looks like Rob Zombie.

So I had some random channel on TV earlier as background noise, and I look up when I hear Vanilla Ice (I don’t know why, maybe expecting a good laugh I guess...)
I look up just in time to see “Music Director - Stanley Clarke”.
Unfortunately I didn’t have time to watch the movie - I’m always...
Absolutely stunning example of this bass in left-handed configuration.
Original hard case is included.
The 2 ebony pieces (stringers) in the neck are there to increase the fundamental frequency (because of their stiffness), and give this short-scale bass more of a “long-scale sound.”
This is a...

A mate of mine went off to a tool show today to get me 1 plane...
And came home with 3 for me, plus 3 gouges!
Stanley #7 and #4 1/2, Falcon (Aussie made) #5.
He also got me some gouges. All up it's set me back $180. Very stoked. I've got some sharpening to do, but I'm really looking forward...
I am asking the best forum that could possibly answer this nagging question :
What is the bass Stanley Clarke is pictured with on the cover of his first solo album?
I know he was closely associated with Alembic but frankly that looks as much like a Bartell/Hohner mutation as any Alembic. Most...
Jazz-fusion composer and drummer Bob Holz will be releasing his third album “VISIONS: Coast to Coast Connection,” featuring bass legend Stanley Clarke on February 23, 2018! “This collaboration with the jazz star and Return to Forever bassist/composer, Stanley Clarke involved the recording of...
I always knew who Stanley Clarke was, but only recently did I start listening to him. I was BLOWN AWAY by his tone. Crystal clear, aggressive, crisp...and often times very deep. Perhaps, the most magical bass tone I've ever heard in my whole existence on this planet (50 years).
I was even more...
pics or it didn't happen, right? sorry there aren't better pics of the bass itself. It belongs to the studio owner who told me that he met Stanley Clarke at a jazz fest. He asked Stanley to sign the front of the bass but he didn't want to "ruin" the look of the bass, so he signed on back...
This was one of the coolest tracks from Loading Zone, an album Stanley Clarke produced for the late Roy Buchanan. At this point in my life I all but worshipped Stanley Clarke, and I thought Clarke’s playing was too cool. Almost forty years later, this time still holds up quite well.
For sale is my Alembic Stanley Clarke Signature Series. This one doesn't come with the LED's.
I am the original owner of the bass. I ordered this bass custom made from Alembic and it was completed in 2003. One of the sweetest bass that I've ever owned. If you ever got your hands on one of...

Almost new EBS WAH Stanley Clarke Signature. It's been sitting on my shelf for a couple of years now and I used it maybe 3 times in total. Its pretty much mint. You can see there are no scratches of any sort on the pedal. Paid over $300 for it originally. Pricing it at $200 USD plus shipping...

Look...I know this topic is strictly subjective, (and probably controversial) but I just saw the Stanley Clarke Band last night and it really rocked!
He played for over 2 hours straight - 2/3 on upright (bowed on 2 songs), 1/3 electric. His band was young (20, 22 & ~30) and were incredibly...
Looking to sell or trade an EBS Stanley Clarke Wah. Price is $170 USD plus shipping from BC, Canada. The pedal has been used and does feature some chips in the finish and such.
As far as trades are concerned, I am interested in a Malekko B:Assmaster or an EHX Bass Micro Synth but I could be...

Not Stanley Clarke, if that's what you were thinking.
Stanley Cup.
We have been sort of the house band for a local pub, playing two Thursdays a month. They asked if we could start an hour early tonight because they had a private party coming in. They didn't tell us that the private party...
Alembic Essence bass
Obviously not an Essence....The lack of inlays and simple electronics say it is not a Stanley....Short scale and body speak otherwise....Super deal if its a Stanley. what do you all think?
I'm looking for another musician or group that sounds similar to the track "Song for John". It's acoustic bass and guitar plus piano. Nice and mellow but with top notch musicianship. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Has anyone tried them both, and which one do you prefer ?
I have the opportunity to buy them both ''second handed''
(on-line, so I can't try them out myself).
I was sitting here remembering when I saw Stanley Clarke and Gregory Hines do the bass-tap duet on Arsenio. I was in high school.
Then I remembered that it's 2016 and we can find anything we ever saw before on the internet.
Enjoy!
Here's a concert from this year. Stanley with a bunch of "kids". It's like watching Bjorn Borg playing Nadal and winning. Stanley's got to be in his mid to late 60s now. These guys are barely 20 and they are some of the best players out there right now!!! How can he still have that youthful...
