[quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1338551581' post='1676178'] An otherwise entirely pleasant chap of my acqaintance always sniggers when I mention our mighty forum by name. Better name than some websites, though. Twee, for me, would be something like - I dunno - PurplePineapple or WhizMonkey. Sappy f***ing names thought up by earnest 'net-savvy' little Hoxton Twats riding round their offices on tricycles. Basschat is a solid, manly sort of name and as British as a cup of hot, strong tea.

[quote name='Cookers' timestamp='1337890410' post='1667112'] Hi, gotten into abit of a bass rut lately and was wondering if any one could come up with any ideas to get me out of it. All suggestions welcome Thanks [/quote] play drums

there was an interview in recent bass player (iirc?) magazine where he explained the origin of his first r*** and how he attributes all the mods done to it as being significant in his opinion to the tone of that specific instrument is interesting how some things never change though - i discovered all the early yes albums when at school when they were released at the time. even then all the kids who liked all the prog stuff were considered to be the geeky types but frankly when you discover '[b]one size fits all[/b]' at the age of 16 then you just KNOW you are intellectually superior to all the chart listening plebs!!

[quote name='Warwick_Official' timestamp='1337853704' post='1666313'] There are no geographic limitations for this giveaway. Warwick will pay the shipping anywhere in the world...however, the winner is responsible for any local duties. [/quote] anyone who works in marketing/pr [i]and[/i] who might be as cynical as I, might offer the suggestion that these prize draw competitions could possibly be 'pre-determined' , but not being in marketing/PR myself I couldnt possibly confirm or deny this

Do you consider yourself an "expert" bass player?
steve-bbb replied to Jam's topic in General Discussion
[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1337549302' post='1661937'] Music is infinite. We are all beginners. [/quote] not only this but also... the [b][url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expert"]definition of expert/expertise[/url][/b] is rather wide imo if you talk about this you need to define the parameters or specific area of expertise to which you are referring otherwise the whole thing is just a bit too vague and generalised -
been a big fan of them since i discovered them when at school back in 76 buddy buddy friends and shes a windup are good ones to play too tis a shame that the mainstream media insists on only playing milk and alcohol when they have so much more great material in their catalogue
