buying-Any 5 string I keep comvincing myself I can play. my hands just aint big enough. not buying- a beaten up mim precision that went on ebay for £170 a few months back

my first MIM precision black, maple neck played like a dream. Jap geddy lee ( enough said) the pick ups growled forever......................feel like crap now lol

I had the exact same trouble with a mex precision a few years ago. no matter what I did the e saddle kept dropping. I did the same as you I put on a 201 gotoh was lovely

that sucks.............ill get my coat

Devin townsend for me. The man can write the beautiful haunting melodies and then the heaviest riffs known to man. His genre hopping is mind blowing. To me he is the modern day Zappa

I use 110,90,70,50 not the tightest tension but I like the strings a bit looser

I have done all the pedals and boards etc, but as NJE says its just more stuff to go wrong. And more often then not I have had issues. At the mo with my Ibby sr500 and my hartke lh500 im getting a lovely piano like tone so it suits me. All I plug in is a tuner

I use 50-110 I think they are a lot better for different tunings. I can drop from standard down 1 step without it making much difference to my neck. You can defo dig in more but my hands get a lot tired quicker

Everything I have bought of their has been ok but I had one occasion where a VM jazz was on there for £180. I thought ill have some of that, So I messaged the seller he was great come and said pick it up in a few days. All going well so far , then get a message from the seller saying someone had offered £220 ,I said i aint stupid and to shove it. Funniest part was, a week later he had the nerve to message me and ask did I still want it

I have recently become sober so my next gig will be the first without a drop of devil juice. I expect the nerves to be there in abundance

I have played plenty of times to hardly anyone but I always say if there is one person there whos really into it, it makes it worth it. Plus sometimes we lay such a great gig were on cloud nine just because of the music

Anything be Hans Zimmer especially Inception Also anything by John Williams

£1200 for me

Anything with Motorhead or Orion with metallica on their 86 tour

"DIXIE" dave Collins - weedeater ross dolan-immolation steve tucker- morbid angel glen Benton -deicide

I have not seen it but Tom Araya from Slayer has a bass harness as he had his neck operated on. God knows how his works as you cannot see it visibly live

I totally understand this bit but lifes to short to hang around being unhappy. Take the leap

Heaven - Lemmy in his prime, slayer in the mid 90s Hell- most metal these days, over produced albums

most prob packing it to be honest. fed up with no one going to smaller gigs no matter how much you promote, that's not including the venues that think one facebook post a month is promoting a gig. Even if people do turn up promoters and venues thinking its fine to pay you pennies or a case of beer when they have basically done sod all. At 38 im getting to old for the sodding around and spending loads of money and recouping nothing

100% spot on for me as well

i loved Therapy in the troublegum era still listen to lots of early 90s british rock

Beethoven- wrote a symphony while almost deaf and conducted orchestras while completely deaf And that's not including his first 2 masterpieces

the wildhearts- earth vs the wildhearts Metallica- ride the lightning Mastodon-blood mountain
