hmmmm! I wouldn't mind a Markbass Compressore and Markbass Super Synth.... oh a couple of Markbass cabs!...... a few more Warwicks...

Thats aloooooot of money!

[quote name='doctor_of_the_bass' post='652030' date='Nov 11 2009, 09:42 PM']I recall one situation where the drums were `moved' to be in time with me!!! Hehehe![/quote] Haha i had that the last time i recorded too! silly drummers.

Just a quick message to say i buy Computer Music magazine and that always has a tonne of very usable samples on there, i find the single hits more useable as i can then stick the wav's in to my sampler to then create beats from. The garage band drum samples are quite good, but very limited, you can create you're own kit on the program though and if you set an individual hit to an individual track then you get complete freedom to EQ and level that hit to the ends of the earth, its time consuming and you'll probably want a MIDI controller to "type" out your beats initially but its very rewarding and the tracks can sound very faithful to real drums, or if you program some IDM and Breakbeat like me a simple stereo editer is all you need, for PC soundforge for MAC i use Audacity.

Hi Mark, Just wondering if the Compressore and Super Synth will be part of the "Take It Away" scheme, just as i plan on picking both of them up when you get the stock as a christmas present to myself. Cheers,

The "common two" are ruining my current band for me, Lead Guitarist too loud all the time and insists on bringing a huge Orange stack to a small practice room, and the singer for singing stupid lyrics during practice, farting down the mic and just generally being a dick, it wont be long before me the drummer and the second guitarist do a runner together....

People describe Sadowsky's as Jazzes on Steroids..... how on earth can you describe that beast?!

wow thats cheap!!! Good Score!!

The beauty of the instrument is people who care know its there, if people don't know its there we don't care. I play bass because i heard it as predominant and distinct sound in my parents music collection *alot of 70s funk and 80's pop* and i just remember wanting to play whatever it was that made that sound, if people don't hear or understand the instrument then thats their bad luck.

I like that a lot! a very simple but effective solution! Congrats! Will the adhesive backing effect the wood finish if you ever took it off?

Never fainted... But there was one gig where i was incredibly uncomfortable, my band were playing Portsmouth University and the main band setup differently to my band, i usually stand my drummers snare side and with the guitarist that plays the rhythmic stuff, in this instance i was shifted to the far right miles from the drummer and in ear shot of the twiddly *w***ing on* guitarists Orange rig and his on stage monitor, i had the vocal monitor to my right, i had an incredibly hot lighting rig at head level to my right and i couldn't have my bass rig loud as the temporary stage shook too much *volume on the markbass was 0.7 NOT EVEN 1!!* and the guitar amp mics picked it up!!! worst gig i have played, couldn't hear myself, i was boiling hot *wearing a cardigan too* i forgot my ear plugs, we were being recorded and being broadcasted live on Radio huge pressure and i just didn't want to be there. Gigs like that are best forgotten! heres a pic of that bastard Orange stack, lighting rig, and monitors...... urgh!

Fantastic Collection!! You've Owned some real beauties!! I particularly like that 5 string Jazz you sold to a pupil, looks like such a badass! Brilliant!

ahhh thought that the white pups may generate some questions, they are indeed just white covers over the exisiting "Duncan Designed" pups, however! i have replaced the white covers with the original black ones as something just wasn't working visually, the new "vintage knobs" remain though! they're just so much cooler than the stock chrome ones.

I know i keep showing them! but i'm very proud of these three girls. and I can't recommend the Squire enough! my god it plays well! Full of funk!
