  1. don't get offended, but that bass scares me, it looks like some bugger has squeezed 5 strings onto a 4 string. other then the weird amount of strings it looks nice & fuzzy. Lol. i wish i wasn't so in the red
  2. i'd use my pod but as i've not used it live yet its not really an option. lol Hopefully get to break it in properly though.
  3. Nice bass, & i don't normally go for the angular modern basses.
  4. i want one, is there a badass bridge that accepts through body strings??
  5. in all my years as a semi incompetant bass player i've never come across a set of strings so crap. If it wasn't for Halo 3 next week i'd be buying a shed load of new strings for both my basses. Just hope these other strings are fine & that my p bass sounds like a monster with its new pups & Badass II bridge. Yeah i'm gonna have to try some of the ernie ball strings.
  6. What an absolute bag of sh*te, i should have realised that the £10 price tag was dodgy. These strings are horrible, i mean seriously, 2 out of the 4 strings were dull like they had already been used, 1 was totally dead & the D string sounded fantastic. I have a pack of Stealth strings ready go go on my P-bass once i've fitted my new SPB-3 Pups. I hope those arn't shocking or i'll have wasted £20 on crappy strings. Wish i had forked out for a set of elites.
  7. Thats how i aquired my Zune, was having a sh*tty week, got very drunk & woke up the next day with an order confermation. Not looked back since. (even though the zune isn't a bass). Seen a few basses i like the look of recently, but can't really afford it, just glad my Seymour Duncans & my Badass II have turned up from the US.
  8. i don't like any of those bands, but i do like Waricks, back in the day i wanted a Thumb also one of my fave bassists plays Waricks (P-nut from 311)
  9. [quote name='doctor_of_the_bass' post='61791' date='Sep 17 2007, 05:31 PM']Hi Aidan! Good to see you down at me Dad's shop on Saturday! There's an Aerodyne on Ebay - check it out (sorry, don't have the link). Cheers! Nick PS - check out my site if you get time: [url="http://www.freewebs.com/doctor_bass"]http://www.freewebs.com/doctor_bass[/url][/quote] twas good to see you mate, as i said its been a very long time, the last time i was actually in the store was oooooooooh about 5 years ago when i bought my T-Max from Greg when i was in Lowsignal. Those were the days, lol. Only thing i regret from those days was selling my hammond to fund my bass amp. At least it went on to a good home where it actually got played by someone with skill. lol.
  10. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='45331' date='Aug 14 2007, 05:14 PM']You're likely to find that there'll not be a bad word said about Peavey gear... no-one will probably wax lyrical about it either but it is cracking value and about as robust as they come![/quote] My Ex guitarist used to slag off my peavey left right & center cause its not Ampeg, but he was a complete vintage goon. Everything he owned was vintage. He was very anal about it all. He couldn't understand why i'd want a 500watt Peavey when i could get a 100watt Ampeg Solid State. Then again, maybe that was just me missing the point. Not like i use the Peavey pre-amp anyway.
  11. Here are some god awful pics of me & my exband Lowsignal playing at the Fiddlers Elbow in Peterborough.
  12. Welcome to basschat, hope you enjoy your stay
  13. [quote name='Tee' post='59453' date='Sep 12 2007, 07:08 PM']That reminds me of the chrome bass, guitar and drums in Jane's Addiction's 'Just Because' [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jG03G2pekBU"]video[/url] (youtube)[/quote] I always thought they were highly polished to get that look, i didn't think they where chrome though. Anyway, love the look of that bass, its something i'd have if i had the cash floating about.
  14. reminds me of my m8's dads Wal that he inhereted.
  15. [quote name='Muppet' post='58471' date='Sep 10 2007, 10:18 PM']I'm trying to work out if I know you from your gear! have your tried the local music section of www.peterborough.net?[/quote] not been on p.net in ages, infact maybe even years. I'm a bit to old for most of the people into my stuff that wanna start bands,
  16. yeah thats me kinda been completely outta the scene since. But i'm looking for something now.
  17. i've always wanted an ATK, but unfortunatly never really got round to getting one. Maybe one day.
  18. Ant, i like your band, sound v unusual. But i like it alot.
  19. balanced is only used for recording?? I've not done any recording in years, but couldn't you just di up the live & record that way??
  20. I have the bass pod xt & short board, now is it really worth me buying the xt live & selling off my pod & shortboard? Been thinking about it as it would save me a bit of space. Are there any limitations with the XT live??
  21. so basically your bass is what my bass should be like once my parts have arrived, I've ordered the Badass II bridge & those SD Quater Pound pickups. Only difference is my bass is in sunburst. Can't wait
  22. Hey Theo, Hope you enjoy your stay
  23. [quote name='Paul Cooke' post='57675' date='Sep 9 2007, 11:31 AM']ps, I think the one armed drummer from Def Leppard plays a better beat than Meg White...[/quote] I think a drummer with no limbs could play better then her. I can't play drums but could probably pull off what she plays. To me it always seems very clumsey, out of time. It really annoys me. Btw i don't see why the 4 string bass should die. Most of the time (for example with dodgy metal bands) most players just use the 5th string as a low end rumble & nothing more. I'm not saying the 5th string is useless just useless to some people. If that makes any sence at all. Right i'm confused. PS, yeah i am a 4 string player, & i don't think i'll ever use 5 strings.
  24. Rush - YYZ Not an intermediate song, but what a bassline. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iONLKn5VHY4"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iONLKn5VHY4[/url]
  25. My ex-guitarist used to love EHX, I have to admit the small stone is a fantastic pedal, the only thing i wasn't so keen about 'em was the fact EHX pedals are sooooooooooo big. But the nano series is a great idea.
