[quote name='thunderbird13' timestamp='1319202380' post='1411225'] I hate to say it and - yes they do look like bellends and the performance is totally OTT- but I think they have something. [/quote] yes they have something and lets hope its not catching because theres already too many sh1te indie bands around

[quote name='funky_numba' timestamp='1319156267' post='1410755'] Well done for nailing down a fav of mine 'Chameleon'. I had never heard of this song until I went to a 'chill-out' bar in Glasgow. The 4 piece band that played this were truly superb!! I was at the bar getting the drinks and when I heard this song I had to ask the band leader what they were playing. A seemingly straightforward bassline but still sounds amazing!! Still need to have a go at it myself!! How did you learn to play it? By reading music or just working it out yourself?

*** SOLD *** Colorsound Tonebender - *** FINAL price drop £0 ***
steve-bbb replied to steve-bbb's topic in Effects For Sale
thanks for the tips will def look into the age a bit more if there is any indicators in the box (when i can find it in the attic!) ive pretty much given up any idea of playing six strings any more even though i was a much better guitarist than bassist but im really not a big fan of distorted bass so i cant see it ever getting any decent use by myself not only that id be concerned gigging it as its so small (ie large pocket size) it could easily fall off the floor into somebodys pocket when you werent looking when ive fished it out the attic i will take a few snaps and post them up -

[quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1318592125' post='1404058'] So you have tried identical basses but for the woods involved and found that they sound considerably different? If so then you I defer to your more relevant experience. [/quote] i didnt say but for the woods - obviously there are other factors but why defer to my experience when you could have your own? one thing i can guarantee, is that it will be much more useful than us lot on here waffling all our pseudoscience

-
i really dont understand people who claim that the wood doesnt make a difference?- i just visited my local music emporium to try out half a dozen different J's (mixture of fender and squier) - ive decided on the cheapest squier there as i like the sound from it (and the price!) but even my cat could tell the difference in tone and sound quality between them
