  1. Being as your drummer has no drums, how about a bassist with no bass??
  2. We do several 70,s glam rockers Bowie - Ziggy Stardust/Suffragette City T Rex - 20th Century Boy/Children Of The Revolution Osmonds - Crazy Horses Mamma Were All Crazy Now - Slade Faces - Stay With Me
  3. I have been having trouble with the little grub screw on the P Bass G string saddle, it seems that the vibrations etc, are causing the screw to come loose and drop the saddle. I have sorted it by a little silicon to keep it tight. This however, had me checking the action every couple of weeks, and I was wondering how often do you all tweak your action?
  4. Some might say maple is harder and gives a brighter sound, but I prefer the look of a R/W board. [url="http://forums.ernieball.com/music-man-guitars/4778-maple-vs-rosewood.html"]http://forums.ernieball.com/music-man-guitars/4778-maple-vs-rosewood.html [/url]
  5. I also play the linoleum.
  6. I started off on bass, but learned guitar after a few years. I,m a fairly good rhythm player but sh*te at lead. Still, I prefer to be on the bass anyhoo!
  7. [quote][color=#000000][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3] [size=3]making special wide neck guitars is very labour intensive and I am the only person in the world who makes them[/size].[/size][/font][/color][/quote] Copywrite MDP
  8. [quote name='Joker2807' timestamp='1354122984' post='1882392'] the first mistake you made was buying Behringer... i avoid them at all costs now [/quote] Agreed. Behringer is the Marlin Sidewinder of bass amps.
  9. You might find for future reference that some shops offer a beat best price policy. I have rang around a few shopswhen I was bass hunting, and asking them if they could beat a rival shops best price. DV247 offeredthe best prices.
  10. Ah, but who replaced who in The Yardbirds??
  11. [quote name='Joker2807' timestamp='1354044041' post='1881400'] who is this guy (i'm a newbie) ... the ad was amusing, he doesnt exactly sell the item very well ... lots of "quite goods" in there lol [/quote] He is a legend on here, some say a god! So have some respect for our glorious leader!!
  12. 2011 Am Standard in Oly White and tort p bass is what I picked up quite cheap last month. Great bass with a nice punchy sound too! Congrats!
  13. [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1353955161' post='1880250'] How weird that he wouldn't sell it back to you. I wonder why, you'd think he would just be pleased to have had a buyer and one that he had already had dealings with. [/quote] Unless he had made some MDP 'improvements' on it and felt a bit embarrassed about it?
  14. The Seeker by The Who. A great line and certainly one of Entwistles best.
  15. [quote name='essexbasscat' timestamp='1353772871' post='1878356'] Did it get trapped in your wallet ? For clarity, Is it the 2nd or 3rd joint from the end of the finger ? [/quote] Sorry, its the second joint, or the one above the knuckle. It doesnt seem to be swollen. It seems I need to get myself down to holland and barrett. Thanks discreet for the pm.
  16. [quote name='essexbasscat' timestamp='1353771709' post='1878342'] Where on the fingers ? all of them ? [/quote] Mainly on the middle finger on the lower joint.
  17. The fingers on my left hand have become quite painful recently. I hope its not arthritis kicking in, that,ll spell the end of my bass playing days!
  18. Slade - Mama we're All Crazy Now. Quiet good actually, its not the root note plodder I expected it to be,
  19. [quote name='Low End Bee' timestamp='1353574596' post='1876112'] Black is the only colour that ever looks good on any shade of bass in my eyes. [/quote] Aye black, its what Leo wanted!!
  20. I have them on my old Squier. They actually look quiet good with the sunburst and tort guard. However, I dont play it in my covers band, I use it my cabaret band playing fingerstyle over the 2oth fret to get an old fashioned bassey thump.
  21. Me too.using google chrome [u][color=#303942]Version 23.0.1271.64 m[/color][/u]
  22. So what was the problem? If we were hacked I wonder who would hack little old us?
  23. If you dont know what youre doing, then take it to a guitar tech and let them sort bit out. Or you run the risk of making things worse!
  24. What the..! Went to have my daily chortle on the Mustang Sally thread, only its not the Mustang Sally thread, its Big Red x and the dark lord arguing over an 8 string bass! I,m off to talkbass, give me a shout when its been sorted!!
