i now have a mental image of Bass Ida attached to your profile name oh btw cats make great avatar pics ... much better than dogs

yamahas are nice but in that price range id stick with the squiers

there is a very subtle technique that is a combination of both left hand fretting and slight vibrato and a subtle slight of hand with the right hand (never got it to work with a pick only fingers) that will give a very slight (ish) sort of fretlessy sound i think it depends a lot on the guitar too as i used to be able to do it quite well on certain basses but not on others not that that helps much but i could always demo it at the next bass bash

i love an interval me - i usually nip off for a drink and some nibbles before the second half of the set

you could try this its a pretty rhythmic groove with some added widdly bits and i think it might just be about 6.2 out of 10 on the technical difficulty scale mainly i guess due to needing to keep a really tight groove with the drums so not outside your grasp but just enough to give you a bit of a challenge [media]http://youtu.be/7Le-mYN3dl0[/media] or if you prefer a nice slow 'three minutes past midnight' type of groove try this one [url="http://youtu.be/p9QxFWnUMCI"]http://youtu.be/p9QxFWnUMCI[/url]

some nice basschatter put up a handwritten tab of WILMH a couple of months ago - will see if i can find it

[b] [size=4]are there any super bands with poor bass players?[/size][/b] id imagine they're all quite well off im here all week

maybe try a lefty loosy quarter turn - leave it for 3 or 4 days and see how it settles - if you need to adjust the saddle grub screws do similar thing and just bring each saddle up half a turn at a time and wait for the neck to settle - personally i would do just the neck and then leave a few days and then adjust the saddles next - that way you will get a feel a bit more of what is going on with the neck movement rather than adjusting two variables at once (ie truss and saddles) as is f you make too much adjustment all at once you can often spend days chasing it all back and forth by keep overcompensating the opposite way before its all had a chance to settle down might be an idea to keep a note of how much adjustment you make - so you know how far you have adjusted in total from where Jon set it up in his workshop

at least you get more time to practise bass because with a trace 4x10 combo you wont need to go to the gym

has anybody yewchewbified it yet?

just listening alone wont usually do it you need to listen [b]and [/b]play and repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat and ..............

well a placcy carrier bag would just split with all those pointy jack plugs and ketttle leads poking thorugh its flimsiness (not sure if thats a proper word or not but if its not ill claim inventing it )

[quote name='Lfalex v1.1' timestamp='1356563658' post='1911292'] Thank god I'm not the only one who uses a carrier bag.... [/quote] see my earleir post

the very same

it is a very classy bass line indeed - figured it out and have been pestering our band like absolute crazy to cover it ...... although im sure the singists will come up with some reason not to

[quote name='seashell' timestamp='1356436115' post='1910191'] Capital idea! [/quote] would you like to see it? i could spoil you just as its christmas and all that i used to use a sainsburys one but that wasnt quote rocknroll enough boss bcb3 instument and speaker cables multiblock extension rcd kettle leads small toolkit spare (old) strings chocolate

[quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1356433868' post='1910159'] That's useful to know. I've been thinking of moving our Citroen on and getting a 3series but was concerned I wouldn't be able to get a 410 on the back seats. [/quote] you can get two on there (IIRC 24"x24"x15" each) soooo... theoretically you should be able to get an 810 cab across the back seat one word of advice just be careful around the front edge of the rear wheel arches when lifting the cab in - i was being a bit hasty and lazy one day and the corner of the cab put a nice little dent in the bodywork oh and the seat belts will also fit around the two cabs and clip in to help secure them

waitrose shopping bag

had a 318i - could get two hartke cabs on the back seat (410 and 115) and guitars across the rear footwell with all the boot still free for other band gear if need be
