Lack Part?

Tarp Calk?

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1330632299' post='1560826'] I knew the answer to this question without thinking about it. It was this one: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6E0m0Gcblp0[/media] [/quote] Mine was 'Closer to the heart' from the same album. You sir, have impeccable taste in music. Back on topic how about 'Under pressure' you could just loop the first two notes - after all, what could go wrong when you make a loop from a Queen track?

Tip it upside down in a champagne bucket?

I've chopped and changed loads since coming on BC, but I've not even thought about getting rid of my Blade. Since that's the bit I feel when I play it's my most important piece of kit. Dirtboxes, wobblyboxes, filters and loud (really loud) amps are nice, but I don't really have the same connection with them as my bass. Bottle's sig says it all - " This is [i]my[/i] bass, there are many like it, but this one is [i]mine[/i].

I voted Pettiford. So there.

[quote name='Low End Bee' timestamp='1330602736' post='1560056'] I went for Percy Heath. I've no idea who any of them are but he sounds like the sort of chap who likes a pint of mild and doing crosswords. [/quote] Percy Heath is an infamous location for dogging and such, isn't it? getting coat and legal brief.

+1, a really clean DI/EQ box, but the drive channel is definitely overcooked. Judicious use of the blend knob is key when firing it up.

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1330499392' post='1558300'] Duff McKagan - immersed in a band with Axl Rose & Slash, it`s so easy (ker-ching) to underestimate his worth to the band, and his bass-playing ability. Great runs, and a good sense of melody. [/quote] True dat. I transcribed some GnR lines for a student once, really surprised to learn just how good Duff's lines really are on "Appetite for Destruction". I shall be giving that one a spin later on today.

Under-rated players? Erm, most of us on here?

Another +1 for the East kit - honestly, it can change everything about the sound of your bass in a really positive way, or it can just add a tickle of whatever you fancy. My East pre is the single best thing I bought last year - superb.

Blimey Dave, your kitchen looks clean!

In a choice between the Adams and the KRKs I'd go for the Adams, just a personal preference, but I think the Adams have a clearer, less coloured sound. Also bear in mind the size of the room you're mixing in, A7s are lovely speakers, but can be a bit too much in a small box room due to the size of the woofer.

I've strung my fretless Jazz with these new Rotos and they're lovely. They've had a couple of outings, and they're really consistent, balanced strings. The tone is great and they respond well to different techniques (slap, harmonics etc.) Kudos to Rotosound for a well made set of strings (and also for letting us have them for free!). Happy bunny.

[quote name='Dave Tipping' timestamp='1330385943' post='1556794'] I've got the black 'russian' one .. it totally sucks out the bottom end. [/quote] Yeah, I've got mine in a looper because of this.
