I was just wondering if its possible to convert my passive jazz into an active and would it really be worth the effort and cost?

Hi all, I've just bought this book second hand and unfortunately it arrived without the CD. It looks like a really good book so to say I'm gutted is an understatement I've thought about sending it back but why argue over a few quid Has anyone got any idea as to where I can get a copy of the CD?

Its the one that looks like a bent bit of tin and I was just thinking of having a change To be honest the bass is awesome so I should probably just forget about it and get a d-tuner instead

On my shuker I cuttently have a gotoh bridge fitted. I've been concidering buying a badass upgrade. Would it be worth it?

I have 21 frets and I tend to slap at the end of the fretboard I'll try out what you suggested and I'll let you know how I get on Thanks Rich

I seem to be having trouble getting a clear slap tone when I'm playing on the D and G strings up around the 12 fret area? Marcus Miller can do it so why can't I? (He is a little bit better than me mind you) What am I doing wrong guys? Help me please it's driving me nuts

I managed to find "the improvisers bass method" as a free download!

I guess what im specifically looking for is a book to help with fretboard navigation and theory. Are any of these books suited to my needs

My bass teacher is due to give birth to a baby boy in the summer and will be out from teaching for around 13 weeks! 13 weeks is a long time out from learning so I thought I could get myself a good book and work my way through it until my lessons start back. I'm currently studying for my grade 5 so I don't really want a beginner's book I've been thinking about getting "Gary Willis Fingerboard harmony" but I'm not sure if it's the right book for me What do you guys think?

Maybe I should have said combo not amp

I'm sure this question has been asked a thousand times before but please indulge me I'm currently in the process of selling my Ibanez sr500 and roland cube 30 bass combo for £280 As the roland is the only one I have I'm going to be in need of another but the choice is overwhelming I play all sorts of music but my favourite has to be funk Has anyone got any suggestions as to what combo i should be looking at?

[quote name='dood' post='1231167' date='May 14 2011, 06:02 PM']Ahhh congratulations! A beautiful Shuker! I feel the same about mine too - just so comfortable and I think they make me noodle and play more.. just can't leave 'em alone ha ha!![/quote] Thanks dood I'd love to have another with the same finish as your the "doodle".

[quote name='chrismuzz' post='1230678' date='May 14 2011, 08:00 AM']I dopn't normally like sparkly finishes but I still had to resist playing with myself looking at those pictures [/quote] The finish is flawless and it seems to change colour depending on how the light is catching it

Thanks Clarky Jon certainly knows his stuff
