  1. Underwater Love - FNM
  2. I think the context of his advice is everything - he;'s talking about improvising, not simply playing a tune. If you're playing a tune that punters expect to recognise, then you'd better be sure that it IS recognisable. If you're improvising over the chords then we can start to blur the boundaries of what's right or not.
  3. Best stand-alone DIs I’ve used were the sansamp paradriver and. Dave Hall VT2. just my 2p worth.
  4. Nietzsche you tonight - INXS
  5. what, you mean with a pointy headstock?
  6. 'The Future' by the incredible Leonard Cohen. Brilliant stuff.
  7. Could you imagine? It'd be like Morrissey's stag do.

    Behringer clones

    Their Vintage Phaser is essentially an EHX Small Stone. And very good it is too.

    That's not really a proper defence under copyright law...
  10. OOF!!
  11. Marshall practice amp TE AH150 with 4x10, then added a 1x15 very briefly an Ashdown thing a couple of SWR SM400 and 220 heads for a while Ampeg svp Pro and Laney Power amp in to various cabs, currently a 1x12 and 2x 10
  12. Aren't there laws against stacking SVT heads - something to do with changes in the earth's orbit I think.
  13. Neck tilt on the neck plate is a plus too - I had one on my 90's Hohner fretless Jazz, which I regret selling.
  14. here's a useful primer on the mechanics of the bass guitar bridge.
  15. The little screws serve two purposes - the vertical ones adjust how high the string sits above the fingerboard at rest - known as the 'action', and the horizontal ones (in the same axis as the string) adjust the intonation - allowing the player to stay in tune all the way up the neck. If a string is rattling too much when it's tuned properly then chances are it's bouncing on the metal frets and needs to be raised - the vertical screws will do this.
  16. A spring washer or locking washer should fix it - can be had for pence from any hardware store.
  17. Pffft, it'll never catch on.
  18. Puts me in mind of Keef getting schooled by Chuck Berry... ...the clip seems to have disappeared from YouTube, but suffice to say that Chuck was NOT as gracious an instructor as Ms Kaye was.
  19. I'm Spartacus and so is my wife!
  20. On hold pending the usual.
  21. Water melon is Easter Hay - Zappa. I think I should probably stop now. Nurse!
  22. Muffin Man - Frank Zappa
