    [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1439451632' post='2842886'] It's all over the place, but IIRC the main riff is in 7/8, then it moves to 5/4 for the F#-E section and then 4/4 for the guitar solo. [/quote] Oh yeah. It's in 7. I always thought it a shame that Gilmour didn't play a solo over the 7 bit. Cop out!

    'Midnight Hour' (again for arpeggios) and 'A Kind Of Magic' by Queen - just to demonstrate what a major 6th sounds like.

    We've got 2 guitarists in my metal band - one has a Gibson Explorer into a JCM800 head (practically a second bass player) and the other has a G&L Telecaster into a 100 Watt Peavey head. Much more clarity from the 2nd guitarist. They work well together though, as we can always tell what each instrument is doing.

    [quote name='Number6' timestamp='1439415797' post='2842770'] Money Pink Floyd, Roger Waters.....if i tried to tell you the mode i'd just expose my lack of music theory knowledge [/quote] I [i]think[/i] it's B dorian in 5/4 time.

    This. Just to highlight general bass awesomeness!

    Eton Rifles by the Jam - great for learning your A minor 7 arpeggios. Chameleon - Herbie Hancock's Headhunters. Great foe 'one finger per fret' chromaticism.

    Nicely done! Love the Misfits.

    Good luck to him. I shan't be applying.

    yup, grounding/shielding issue.

    Best amp for a 'P'bass? Anything. Literally anything. P basses just slice through a band mix with plenty of 'oomph' to spare.

    I had a flyer throughout the door the other day stating that Maplins are now doing the Alesis Guitarlink Wireless system for £35. Don't know if that's of any use to anyone wanting to dip a toe in the murky waters of wireless technology though. http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/alesis-guitarlink-wireless-system-a39ta

    Nice that. Pre-lawsuit headstock too. Definitely a lot of bass for the money.

    [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1439146174' post='2840402'] The fact that there was no expectation that I would have to dance to it was a major attraction [/quote] This.

    not thought of using the strings to clamp it. I was planning to use some sort of capo (it's a Jazz neck, and very thin).
  16. paul_5
    Fantastic!

    For me it would be either Rush's 'Farewell to Kings' or Marillion's 'Misplaced Childhood'

    Recently bought this on BC, and it's an awesome flanger, but I think I'm after a more 'phase shift/rotary' sort of box instead of a flanger, so moving it on. [url="http://s1221.photobucket.com/user/paul_510/media/WP_20150807_13_04_06_Pro_zpsj0fcdaxj.jpg.html"][/url] excellent condition Yours for £15 nuggets SOLD

    [quote name='Norris' timestamp='1438890484' post='2838508'] And if you're lucky enough to find someone who can actually keep time, it's always on the first and third beat [/quote] Nothing, and I mean *nothing* irritates me more than the 'clap on beats 1 & 3' brigade. Have they no soul?
  21. paul_5
    Yeah, FWIW I really rate "Sgt Pepper's". Got it on CD and Vinyl - for special nights-in with a glass of Single Malt.

    [quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1438883583' post='2838425'] Cream apparently didn't think they were very good either...they didn't think the Stones were any good at all though [/quote] Depends which one they asked - Clapton and Bruce might have given you a carefully considered response. Baker, on the other hand hates EVERYTHING!!!

    Singer don't turn up to rehearsals? Bass player don't turn up to gig. Here endeth the lesson.
  24. paul_5
    Sure, why not. Oh, you don't mean right now....Awwwww.

    Got a new nut for my fretless the other day - old one was a bit worn. Is it just a case of slotting ing it and then filing the slots to the required depth, or am I missing something?
