***SOLD*** : Marleaux Consat Custom 5. £1250.00

Definitely. There is so much whinging from many people about "fizziness" on some amp models like a Marshall Plexi... thus confirming they have never played a real Marshall Plexi at all, because they are fizzy as hell when cranked! All the "it's not accurate" bollocks comes from people who have never had any or any adequate time with the real amps and are instead based on recordings of them they happen to like. Buyers would probably be happier with their sounds if the modelling manufacturers didn't provide lists of modelled amps - to stop comparison to an individual listener's own favourites. Then it either sounds good or it doesn't.

I don't think there is a boutique end of modelling. Each unit has good things and bad things. If Line 6 didn't have Yamaha money then the Helix would have to be priced up there with Fractal. Helix is the price that it is because of economies of scale.

So they've copied the HX Stomp and made it twice as expensive. Good luck with that.

Don’t be silly. its just an end to employers making musicians sit 1m away from a 130 dB sound source without adequate hearing protection.

Can any bass player here tab/score this bassline
fretmeister replied to Bassy Bass's topic in General Discussion
Without the information I think it's an entirely reasonable reaction to a post that contains a Video to assume the poster can see it. And that the reaction is basically "do it yourself lazy goit" because the information all seems to be there and the OP says he's been playing for 30 years.. I've never seen musos react badly to blindness or other different abilities. After all we have Stevie Wonder and Jeff Healey etc, and the far better than me 1 armed bassist Bill Clements. -

This appears to be more pertinent information that could have been useful in the original post. -

flip it. The song is fosters easy - or at least should be for someone who claims to have played for 30 years. And there is a video that shows the guys hand positions as well, so that deals with any audio quality issues Tabbing it out would take me under an hour. I've been playing as long as the OP has. The OP appears to have spent more time getting upset about this thread than would have taken him to tab it out. I have a day off work and I was considering transcribing it, partly to help and partly for my own practice. Not now. -

a ha ha hahahahahahahaha! How to make friends and influence people. I can point you in the direction of someone who does transcriptions if you want. He's a pro so he'll want paying though. I think he starts at about £60 for a part notation with tab. (£20 for me as well of course for telling you who he is. Got to grease the wheels) -

I removed the preamp in my Ray5. -
***SOLD*** : Marleaux Consat Custom 5. £1250.00
fretmeister replied to fretmeister's topic in Basses For Sale
Bump. There won't be any more price drops. It will either sell or it won't. So thanks for the sub £800 offers you cheeky goits, but no. I've had a lot of lovely basses offered in trade but nothing suitable so far. Please note it is an automatic 'No thanks' for anything 6 string, or fretless, or over 8.5lb. Also I do not have a budget to add. So if you want money as well as your trade offering, then the answer will also have to be no. -
Public liability insurance recommendations please.
fretmeister replied to Painy's topic in General Discussion
I'm an Equity member so I'm covered with that. But I think my instrument policy covers it as well- but I don't know if that includes all people I might perform with, or just me. -
I hated them! Daddario Pro Steels on mine.

I contacted Sandberg on facebook and they have confirmed the VS can be ordered as a Super Light version now. Now I need to raise more money!

If the amp has a value of under £10,000 you won’t get to recover your legal fees even if you win. So limit those fees to paying for a snotty letter or do it yourself.
