  1. hey folks got both a CD-ROM drive and a DVD drive, been left here by previous tennants. no idea if they're in working order or not but they're free to collect or will post feel free to get in touch if you want more info
  2. would LOVE to take this we have the same shorts...just so you know!
  3. [quote name='LLOYDWT' post='1208312' date='Apr 22 2011, 02:12 PM']Scarified by Paul Gilbert / Racer X and I can still only do the tapping part at half speed. [/quote] i have been meaning to learn this for the last few years, tried a few times but gave up quite quickly might go back to it tonight
  4. new born - Muse not an overly difficult run but difficult to keep it going! making my way through 'Overjoyed' by VW but keep getting my fingers tied up in knots
  5. great story behind this bass, here's hoping you get the deal you're looking for
  6. sir, i have no idea why this hasn't gone yet!
  7. lovely bass! just wish i had £700 to spare right now
  8. was having a look at the Ibanez SR300 which was just popped up, £180 iirc
  9. nice one, cheers guys! will give it a wee go when i get in from work
  10. i have not now i have holding down the first and 13th fret the string is touching every fret...if this is what i'm looking for?
  11. hey guys sorry for the n00blet question, but when it comes to doing repairs and stuff, quite frankly i brick it when i think about doing it myself! the problem is on the B, E, A and a bit on the D strings, anything from open strings to the 6th fret seems to buzz quite badly. i really like a low action so i have it set the way i like it. am i simply overdoing it you think? or is it something a bit more serious looking at the neck it seems to be perfectly straight to my eye, so i'm confident it's not a warping issue... think a truss rod adjustment is required? sorry, just a wee bit concerned Cheers Gary
  12. i'm preparing for another dip in to the world of 4 strings, trading one of my 5's hopefully have a better experience than last time, but if not, i'll still have a 5 to go back to
  13. [quote name='steantval' post='1204301' date='Apr 19 2011, 12:01 AM']a bass should have 4 strings, that's what they started with.[/quote] it's called evolution
  14. Andy Rourke (reason i started) Greg K Flea Victor Wooten Tim Commerford i know Greg K (the Offspring) will appear a strange choice but this is what i was listening to when i was first playing bass and as a result can almost play right through their first five or six albums to this day
  15. yeah whn i was starting i was getting bass and guitar lessons from the same guy which was a great help. guitar lessons on the saturday then bass lessons on a tuesday which he stopped charging me for in the end as it began to just turn in to more of a jam session rather than a lesson
  16. you seem keen! edit - should probably explain, the above post initially appeared about 5 times
  17. yeah these are made in Germany, and i've had the bass for a while and never actually checked the exact date - i'll look it up and let you know!
  18. here's the FS thread [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=131447"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=131447[/url]
  19. i'm guessing you won't be interested in trade + cash?
  20. warwick $$ 5 string? looking for a wee change myself
  21. warwick $$ five string?
  22. looks like this bass is getting the attention it deserves now
  23. [quote name='Doctor J' post='1200494' date='Apr 15 2011, 11:44 AM']Count yourself lucky, I was once in a band with a guitarist who didn't know [i]that[/i] he was playing, so every second of every rehearsal was filled with random noodling and he'd respond with a confused "huh?" every time you'd lose patience and shout at him to shut the f*ck up.[/quote] i just felt my blood pressure jump a bit as this reminded me of my last guitarist rage
