do you have many songs which require a low Bb? if not my humble suggestion would be get a five string in standard tuning listen to the bass line - figure it out and play it yourself (ie do not copy the pattern that the guitarists are playing on their puny thin-wired instruments) play the pattern on the bass as in a position on the neck where the riff best suits the register (which isnt necessarily going to be copy the shapes that the guitarists are throwing!!!)

i tried the syb5 and like it but was struggling with it - the reason i found out afterwards is most likely the tracking issues with inconsistent input levels if you have problems with either pedal tracking accurately try something like the boss limiter/enhancer in front of it perhaps

Your agent two words Control Freak best avoid

theyve obviously confused him with a hansom cab

I'm gobsmacked that there seems to be be no apparent means of reporting this sort of thing on eBay (at least on the iPhone app there doesn't appear to be)

1999 'just too good' so telling on so many levels

[quote name='Dom in Somerset' timestamp='1361478522' post='1986465'] There is a school of thought amongst certain people that "professionalism" equates to being rude/pushy/up-tight/egotistical/self centred/self important and so bloody great they can get away with all the aforementioned unpleasantness. [/quote] so you've dealt with "dont call me dave's" manager then?

keep us updated as long as it doesnt turn into a contemporary remake of dangerous liaisons in leather and denim

A bit terse wasn't it. I wouldn't have mentioned the other band and would have just enquiried as to their set list and also throw in that you have own equipment and transport and reasonable radius you're prepared to travel then leave it up to them Or you could reply and question why they have a percussionist is it to cover up lack of technical skills by the proper drummer and tell them you could only commit to them if YOU felt that their drummer was of sufficient technical standard to compliment your bass playing ;-)

havent seen one of those trace 4 x 5(?) cabs in aeons
