  1. As a Tribute to Allen Woody, Government Mule released an album called the Deep End and it featured John Entwistle. Jack Bruce, Flea, Bootsy Collins, Larry Graham, Roger Glover. and thats only Vol1, Vol 2 Featured Les Claypool. Billy Cox, Phil Lesh, Tony Levin, Chris Squire and Jason newstead. thats where my next tenners going.
  2. I think the backing on that album was done by the Wally Stott orchestra. so it will probably remain a mystery. Wally Stott had a sex change and became Angela Morley and lives in the States. and now, back to our main programme!

  9. [quote name='Clarky' post='550336' date='Jul 24 2009, 04:04 PM']Sorry it didn't work out BeerDragon - I now feel slightly guilty at pointing out the eBay link to you Out of interest what didn't feel right - I ask as I have often thought about whether I would like a TB (they do look so cool)[/quote] It was the look really Clarky, i have always fancied one. this is a nice example and the neck dive doesn't bother me at all. but as soon as i put a strap on it and started playing i realised this is not my kind of bass, i suppose i could have searched one out in a shop and saved a bit of money but there you go.
  10. I bought this off ebay last week, After a few minutes of playing at a practice session i knew it wasn't for me. Nothing wrong with the bass, its just not my cup of tea. It's in a Korean one, in really good condition plays and sounds well. come with a hard albeit tatty case, looking for £200 [url="http://img24.imageshack.us/i/p7240007.jpg/"][/url] [url="http://img10.imageshack.us/i/p7240005.jpg/"][/url]
  11. That's nice!
  12. Has he got small hands, because that Lakland board looks huge!
  13. [quote name='bythesea' post='549386' date='Jul 23 2009, 08:51 PM'] I think you might! [puts up hand][/quote] Ok, pm me an address i i will get it in the post.
  14. I bought this at Xmas with the intention of settling down over the festive season and having a read. fat chance, so its never been looked at. if anyone wants a read and then pass it on. perhaps i'll get no takers.

  16. It took me an age to get No doubts version of Talk Talks It's My Life. So congrats for doing that. i don't want even go there.
  17. I never noticed her!
  18. For a 62/63 If thats what it is, i'd say it was slightly ahead of its time with that finish. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=280368832395"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=280368832395[/url]

  20. We Alone by Heart, we started doing it in A sharp. then dropped it to G sharp. Our singer wants to drop it to F sharp now! Its a very easy song to do for bass. but i thought i would make it even easier if i used Guitar Pro. the fretboard says its in F sharp but the sound is in the original A sharp. anyone know how to get it to F sharp?.
  21. [quote name='silddx' post='545544' date='Jul 20 2009, 06:02 PM']I rejoice in the wonderfulness of the human race, and despair of its cruelty and inhuman treatment of itself, every day. I read once, I think in a '80s Guitar Player Magazine, that an interviewee in the mag who used to walk the streets of New York carrying an instrument to gigs and rehearsals, never once got mugged, they always left him alone because there was a sort of empathy, a poor musician trying to earn a living, some weird respect thing for musicians going on. I've always felt pretty safe carrying my bass around, even in dodgy places in London at night.[/quote] Was it a Violin case?
  22. I'm sure we have a regular poster here on Basschat who is in Austria. cant for the life of me remember his name. Soulfinger!. why dont you give him a pm, he might know something in your area.

  23. [quote name='Deep Thought' post='544353' date='Jul 18 2009, 09:48 PM']I went to see my mate's band last week-The Bucket Boys. These boys have musical cred coming out their ears-their lead guitarist has played with Pink Floyd (my other mate who was with me can testify to this-he saw him with them 20 years ago at Wembley), thier drummer has done some pretty impressive session work, and played on at least one big hit in the 60's. Their bass player was using a Sunn Mustang (looked exactly like a Precision) through a Behringer combo-about 100W I would guess-and looked to be cranking it pretty hard, with no PA support. Sounded great.[/quote] I saw the Bucket Boys last year in St Ives. You are on about Tim Renwick who played with the Floyd, The bass player had an upright bass if i remember corectly and they were all very professional, great band.
  24. Strange, the same guy sold it for £104 the other week. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ibanez-Blazer-series-bass-guitar-fretless-custom-made_W0QQitemZ180379559163"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ibanez-Blazer-series...emZ180379559163[/url]
  25. [quote name='skankdelvar' post='544206' date='Jul 18 2009, 06:47 PM']We should copy our French cousins. They simply ignore the laws they don't like - and their cops have got better things to do than bust folkies and bluesers.[/quote] Yeah but their music's s..t though.
