PM'd about ODB-3

Bought a few pedals off Stephen last week, arrived quickly and they all work. What more can you ask for?

Hope to deal with you again at some point!

PM'd....twice..

it's pretty difficult when you've been playing 7 months haha, plus theres so many small variations in the song it takes a fair amount of time to get it completely right.

the most fun songs to play are primus though, the intro to mr pink by level 42 is really fun to play (and actually easy)

happy by mudvayne

when i just started playing bass (less than a year ago) I watched a cover of that song and though "wow, it must takes years and years to get that good."

7 months later, i can play it....and i figured it all out by ear (it took bloody ages but i managed it)

Was good dealing with you and enjoy the pedal!

also, there was paypall fee's.....they took about £9 off me once i got your money, but it's all good

Great buyer, fast and easily done (even considering I had no idea how paypal works)

[quote name='AttitudeCastle' post='1172613' date='Mar 22 2011, 09:08 PM']I use a rotosound .140 for my B string in standard tuning,

I've been looking at a .175 so i can tune down to an F# but that would probably be a tad floppy for my likes,

In america i saw a .205 string I cannot for the life of me remember the brand name or what the packet looked like!!

Guy at the shop said he had only ever sold 2 packs... to the same guy

Also, those conklin strings are expenisve! $34 for a low C#! (the .194) Imagine the price of a full 11 string set! (I Plan to own a 9 string before i hit 30 )

I like thick strings, been called MAD (Mad i say! Mad!) for usuing a .115 for an E[/quote]

on the circle k website the largest string ive found is a .254 ........i mean really....is that necessary? even though i tune down to G even i think that is kinda overkill

I've sent my e-mail to newtone strings, seem to have a few happy customers in this topic alone, look forward to trying their strings out.

I'm playing my first gig in a few weeks time...rather nervous. from the video's it looks like you done really well, i'll be terrified incase anything goes wrong

people seem to be saying 8 rehearsal's isn't that much...which isn't helping the fact that by the time of my first gig we'l only have rehearsed 5 times....it's a metal band so luckily the drummer problem won't be there lol

at that gauge i believe the term 'string' becomes a bit inappropriate.....'cable' is definitely a more fitting name

i'm going to send them an e-mail......what would you reccomend for GCGCF tuning? (gauge-wise) i've never tried anything higher than .130

[quote name='chrismuzz' post='1171981' date='Mar 22 2011, 12:26 PM']+1 on the Newtone Strings front! I'm tuned ADGCFBb and my bottom string is a .152. Works great! Pop them an email they're sound guys and should get back to you fairly quickly. Ps tittie bum[/quote]

tittie bum indeed.

also, what are the prices (estimate) for those strings in a 5 string set?

yeah, it's looking like i may need to either custom order strings or buy the darklord's and find a D string seperatly....damn my low tuning

I'm sure this has been posted many many times, however here goes.

I tune down to GCGCF when i play with my band (no prizes for guessing what kind of music) but I'm in need of new strings and was wondering what are the heaviest strings out there and where can i get my hands on them?

the heaviest ive found in shops around here are rotosound swing bass .130 which is still pretty floppy (although the .105 'E' string is the worst)


Warwick dark lord strings don't count....although i am considering buying a pack of them

a 'please buy this' bump.

bought it just after christmas thinking i'de use the effects a lot but i've pretty much only used it a few times (mainly covering tool songs)

great piece of kit but i need the money and someone else would get better use out of it.

£280 but willing to consider offers

*jaw hits floor violently*

i can't afford that many bass stand's never mind the bass's

noticed this deal on thomann, wondering if anybody had any experience with this cab or the amp head and if it's worth the money (seems like a good deal to me)

cheers

beautiful bass, but you need to provide a price

not falling, severed, forget to remember, dull boy, dig, happy? all of which by mudvayne

pretty much every primus and les claypool song lol

got the life by korn

hot water, mr pink by level 42

the list could go on

the thumbs are looking pricy just now? wow, i was thinking that they were incredibly cheap (pretty new to the forum). when i do get a job the thumb is definetly going to be my first big purchase, they look and sound amazing...and i've recently got obsessed with Ryan Martinie.

[quote name='Chris2112' post='1082647' date='Jan 8 2011, 10:18 PM']Cameron, there are three Thumbs for sale here at the moment, all 5 strings I believe! You need to get that cash together quick, one of them will be just the trick if you're wanting to do a good Mudvayne cover![/quote]


i know...it's really not fair, looking for a job just now (entirely so I can buy a thumb 5 but will be used for other equipment too) i love the k5, it plays and sounds great but except from a carl thompson, a thumb is my dream bass...and with a recent surgery i'm limited to what jobs i can do. damn karma.

even if i don't get the money for a few months, i'm sure there will be people selling them at some point, just gonna keep my eyes open.

bump, no takers? or even offers?
