[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1371809135' post='2118332'] Sorry, it's still in Falkirk, and will be for the next week or so. It would have been great if you could play it at a gig with 5 hen parties though! [/quote] indeed would have made for some hilarious photos of the purple bass getting mobbed by drunken laydeees

[quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1371639767' post='2116426'] Don't seem to come up often on the sale board [/quote] maybe yours will be the first then!! and bloody hurry up will ya im going all pavlovs dog here

mentioned it also in a previous thread somehwere but check out scott devine's walking bass lesson on his website it's very good

[url="https://www.facebook.com/mannysmusicshop"]Mannys Music in Chatham[/url] and also mid-air in chatham not sure what Sharon's in maidstone is like these days and i believe there is a place somewhere out by the tonbridge road?? - a maidstonite will be along soon to confirm maidstone and surrounding area you will find also good for live music venues - if youre anywhere near kings hill on sunday say hello we will be at the spitfire and you can recognise me by my coffee table top bass

is it back daaaarrn saaarff yet? i have a gig this saturday which i could treat the bass to (the venue manager tells us there are five hen parties booked in for that night!)

there is no start or end hope this helps on a serious note what are your playing styles so far so we can throw some suitable suggestions ??

nice shape unyewsual the grain on the elm looks very nice and the natural hue has come up very warm looking whats the verdict on the elm with regard to tone? does the body ring smoothly when you hit the E and hold it by the top horn?

say hi to my friend Simon if you see him on Leyte

im pretty sure it was the squeak from my amp being picked up by the singists mics who were all looking at me and pointing like its my fault!!! its only the second time ive gigged the pesky thing and wasnt really expecting it at all as never noticed it on my boxer65 at reasonable practice volume levels

this .... is a very interesting story but the writing style is about as exciting as the instructions on a pack of prescription medication so maybe try this one instead... i liked this one too ...

nobody experienced squealing black nylons?

ok not sure where to put this thread but this folder seems as good a place as any [size=6][i][b]So [/b][/i][/size] .... i recently bought some black nylons - and coincidentally i also bought a set of rotosound trubass black nylon wounds adn this is the cause of my woes not gigged them before so decided to give it a run this afternoon (on a squier fretless vmJ) the squeak from the strings (both left and right hand) was causing some serious whistling and feedback!! - initially i had flanger on and the settings were a bit much so wound it down and that seemed to stop it - however every time my fingers caused a squeak on the strings the bloody thing would howl like mad - im guessing somehow the mics were picking up the initial squeak - i thought it might have been the flange or chorus accentuating it so turned them of but to no avail anybody had any similar problems with flat black nylon wounds? must admit never had anything even remotely like this with steel or nickels

what is the real dilemma here? is it that you feel the playing on the final recording is not indicative of your style and in particular your standard of playing? is the playing significantly below your standard and therefore likely to affect your reputation as a bass player? - will it likely have an effect on any future offers of work? - will it have any significant impact on your fiscal status? if not to all these then why worry the bottom line is... it's the bottom line - most punters buying it will be listening to the words and tunes and only a few picky musos like us lot would know or care about the difference anyway

[quote name='Chiliwailer' timestamp='1371369610' post='2112923'] Now do this for anything you can imagine going wrong at the gig!
