I've found playing drum rudiments helpful in the past. Treat left and right as different notes. https://ae.vicfirth.com/education/40-essential-rudiments/

The book I’ve linked to has a series of exercises that divide 4/4 time up. They increase in complexity. You can also get an odd time signature book too which is very good.

Well FOH got good comments and as the Singist was in a chatty mood, all was good BUT I could not get the stage monitors to a usable level. We could hear the FoH quite well on stage and that make me wonder whether that was adding to the problems. We go again next Sat with a few changes that might help. 😀

I bought a Hohner Jack that had been badly converted to passive. I put the Artec in and loved it.

I’ve got a v7 5 it’s perfect to play

I saw the thread, but it's not really what I'd like. Something more like a standard 34" bass with more conventional spacing. I already have a couple of 30" 6 string basses, such as the SRC6 in my avatar. Over the years, I've seen a couple of boutiques and even a CS Warwick (IIRC) and maybe an Alembic, nothing else. Closest 'conventional' bass is the 10 string Deans.

Fair enough, was looking at the higher end Z7 5 strings around 700 euros on reverb.

That's fantastic! Sounds like you had a great time Great to hear from some new bands and glad everything went well for you 👍

Just goes to show that genius isn't always cleanius (or something).

I counted twice as fast as Chris for starters so everything is going to sit differently. The first thing to remember is that a transcription is NOT the recording. Chris is hearing 73 bpm. I am hearing 146. I will have a closer look at Chris's transcription tomorrow to see whether that is the only difference. I am as interested as you are.

Oh my, I think the bass gods are really toying with me; I was looking out for a Tune 5-string a while back (I have the TWB-6 and a couple of the later Korean models). Sadly, funds won't currently allow me to go for it but I can certainly vouch for the quality of these basses. Absolutely! GLWTS. 👍😎👍 -
Nice! -
I misread the title as 'Dingwall SP 15 string'... imagine my disappointment when I realised. GLWTS! -
They're definitely learning that a big PA is very different to a club PA and it shows up things that just weren't a problem before like the occasional string touching a pickup is barely audible on a small PA but its like a punch in the face on a big PA. Fortunately, they're quite mature for teenagers and learning quickly and keen to adapt. They played another festival today and went down really well, the organisers want them back next year.

Hello, I would like to buy this from you please. I'll send you a direct message so we can work out the details. Thank you. -
Missed this thread previously - fretted & fretless - my main two basses for the last twenty years!

Done a mockup of the pickup template in Inkscape - printed it out and it works - on paper. The hole's big enough to accept the pickup and not so big that it shows past the pickup ring. (snapshot - not to scale) Seeing as it's simply the union of two rectangles, I'll probably just draw it directly onto a piece of MDF then cut it out.

Trades - X Touch Universal, maybe Alto TS215. Great bass in good condition, comes with hard case. Short scale. Not a heavy bass. Plays well. Not really any damage to speak of. There’s a little bit at the top of the headstock (photographed) but looks much worse than it actually is. I’ve removed the strap lock pins and replaced them with the originals that were odd when I got it. The case is old but fully function and all the clasps work. Can post at buyers expense or can be collected from BB22SH Any questions please ask.-

Last November, I couldn’t believe my luck to find a Classic Sterling this side of the pond: In May, I found another one - and with a maple fingerboard, to boot: A plan took shape, a deal was made, a beautiful bass received - and two necks were swapped: Such cool basses.
