I get a lot of guys come up to me afterwards and tell me they 'like my style and lines' but sadly i'm the ogre of the band so its all a musical platonic attention!

Muse at T in the park. Chris has invisible bass syndrome again

I swear Peter Hook looks just like Pete Townsend.

I don't need it for too many sounds, so i think i'll be okay using it just in stompbox mode. God i'm a good at guessing with the T-Wah and fuzz idea!

Can you get a 'Wolstenholme' synth fuzz? Ala Time is running out? I'm guessing i might have to mix a fuzz with some kind of T-Wah or something?

Just bought one of these as I played one in the past and it blew me away - naturally i've GAS'd ever since. I'm eagerly awaiting its arrival. Can you guys tell me all the pros and cons of it from your experience? I'm really going to be using the Muff, ODB-3, Flanger, Wah and maybe a bit of delay as well as a bottom boost and the compressors. Cheers, Parker.

I've no problem with the swapping. You want to get the right tone for each song. When you've that much money and that much success you can afford to be that much of a perfectionist. I know I would be if I wasn't a student!

Red Fender Jazz, Fireglo Ric, A few status as well are his range. He used to play bass collection basses and a pedulla rapture, and some warwicks in the studio. Pretty wide range of gear! Back onto the topic of their performance, i thought they played exceptionally well but the mix let them down. Too wooly and not enough punch.

Personally, a good bass player doesn't have to be someone who can play ridiculously fast or put videos of themselves on youtube slapping away. A good bass player plays what is right for his music and fills that hole between the rhythm section and the melodies. A good bass player will encapsulate the mood and feel of the song in his or her playing and give the music real texture and a greater level of impact to the listener.
