  3. [quote name='velvetkevorkian' post='24759' date='Jun 29 2007, 10:46 AM']Once you go three fingered you'll never go back. Well, I won't anyway. Two just seems so inefficient.[/quote] Recommend Progressive Bassics by Gary Willis, he shows how to work the three finger technique complete with string muting.......

  7. [quote name='GBH' post='24096' date='Jun 27 2007, 06:34 PM']Hi guys,I'm in witham in essex, no lacquer cracks,one small ding on the back on the lower edge,Geoff.[/quote] Geoff, Interested, but the wife will divorce me if I bring another guitar into the house. Would you consider a p-ex/trade for my Warwick Streamer Standard 4 string, currently listed at £275 in the for sale section. I also have a Shure Wireless set up for sale at £65 which would obviously be cash your way.
  8. [quote name='wildman' post='23741' date='Jun 26 2007, 08:57 PM']Bought this off a bassworlder about a year ago and I gigged it once but with a change of band and venues played, I dont use it much any more. Handles the low B on my 5 string really well. £65 UK posted, or collect from Worcester Park, Surrey and save yourself a fiver. [/quote] No interest at all. Price too high ??

Garry, will be getting that book and glad you like the cab. Next time I'm in Edinburgh I'll give you a shout (and we'll keep away from the men in suits...). Probably be end July now at this rate, but you never know. Thanks a million again !

  13. Change of heart coupled with desire for cash - relisted !
  14. Been struggling to nail it, any of you senors and senoritas got some tips. Sounds like you need to play slightly behind the beat, but I just cant get it right.....
  15. [quote name='lukeward2004' post='21310' date='Jun 21 2007, 12:12 PM']You are right - I am working through the Ed Friedland "building walking basslines" book and will be moving on to the Gary Willis book thereafter, as there is a lot to take in. Both Ed Friedland and Gary Willis are fantastic tutors, and I the Gary Willis book requires more of a preconcept of walking basslines in order to work.[/quote] Agree with all thats been said above. What worked for me was the Strong-Beat, Weak Beat concept thats a favourite of Gary Willis. Take a standard bar with four notes in it, and play it over and over, with the emphasis on beats 1 and beats 3. You can extend this to scales (you will need to play the top note twice to keep within the four beats to a bar form as you come down the scale) and all of a sudden your scales and arpeggios sound interesting. Vary it around a bit. For example play with the emphasis on beats 2 and 4 you've got yourself a reggae groove, 1 2 and 3 and you have a skipping walk and so on.
