yes mine was big but now is bigger i recently added a 115 to my 410 - end result is more lugging to and from the car into the venue but for me this is outweighed by being able to turn down the master volume to half what is was previously set at (trying to compete with the pesky guitarers) and it definitely shifts more air and the low end cuts through really well as we dont have any subs for our PA yet so i get to dominate the low end hahaha if youre young and fit enough and have the transport is worth the effort imho/ymmv/mcton

do YOU think it matters do YOU think it makes a difference if YES and YES then challenge your teacher

[quote name='oggiesnr' timestamp='1391937997' post='2362701'] I've seen a number of defretted bass players who've spent the entire gig staring at the fret lines rather than relaxing [/quote] i bet you i've seen even more fretted players doing this

i always tend to prefer stage left especially on a smaller stage mainly to avoid twatting any other band members with the headstock or accidentally adding extra unwanted percussion

[quote name='KiOgon' timestamp='1391883311' post='2362318'] I would rather go for a £200ish Squire, Vintage or similar fretless & play with for a month or so before I altered my dream bass if it suits then go ahead, you'll get your money back on the cheapo no problem. [/quote] this definitely personally i always think that defretted basses look a bit naff and that even the best craftsmanship can still result in something looking like a sixth form woodwork project (stands back and waits for incoming)

[quote name='geoham' timestamp='1391805630' post='2361620'] Had a similar experience. The bloke in the shop checked his online catalogue and wasn't able to find much. Fender, Squire and Vintage Jazz basses. Mostly 'Jaco' style too. Reckon a wee shake up is needed - love Jaco's stuff, but have no desire to play a tatty looking bass with a missing scratchplate! [/quote] they're not all relic'd you could easily throw a nice tort plate on there too

gratuitous bump

[quote name='Adrenochrome' timestamp='1391681954' post='2360011'] One tip for restoring rusted chrome is to use an acid to return some of the corroded metal back to metal - coke can work well for this. Also, once your neck is sufficiently clean, I wouldn't use lemon oil for further cleaning as it dries the wood. [/quote] +1 for the coca cola (works on rust stains in textiles too)

you can usually pick up a hartke 15 cab for around 100 the vx115 has paper cone and is very warm and also has a tweeter but you could disconnect - the 115 xl has no tweeter but has aluminum cone but still has a warm tone - have used both and thoroughly recommend plenty of bang for your buck with hartke hartke also do 2x15's in both paper and ally cones if you want to keep your skinny string guitarists in check

want

thanks have emailed in now too

[quote name='icastle' timestamp='1391306491' post='2355672'] Nah. Provided you're organised and know when you have to change you'll be able to do it in about 5 seconds while the singer is introducing the next song. [/quote] this oh and the guitarist will [b]always[/b] be faffing about with settings too and usually twice as long as the singer takes to introduce the next number

great backing - shame about the vocals

anybody know of anywhere retailing pickup finger rest ramps for trb1004/5/6 ? ta

should be able to pick up a TRB1005 easily in that price bracket and hopefully have enough left over for a pedal or something [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/96631-the-yamaha-trb-porn-thread/"]basschat.co.uk/topic/96631-the-yamaha-trb-porn-thread/[/url]

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1391098763' post='2353252'] The OP has already answered that..! [/quote] yes yes but you cant blame us for not noticing when we're all so busy trying to spot the fictitious lesbanians

[quote name='Bassmonkey' timestamp='1391000469' post='2352073'] When I saw the title i thought you must have known! Gigging at a local pub known to be a bit "lively" last Saturday, we were treated to a pair of very drunk girls grabbing the mics, falling over monitors, spilling drinks over the front line. Gave em the hard word and they behaved a bit better. Next thing, 4 guys descended on them and much snogging, groping etc. Next thing the 2 girls started snogging each other for ages - cue giddy lads, hand in pants - YIKES!!! Eventually the rest of the dancers bundled them off the dancefloor. I berated them but to be honest they didn't care. Ended up all 6 leaving doubtless we'll see the end product on Jeremy Kyle at some point in the future. Dirty twisters! [/quote] what venue is this please? is just that a friend was asking you see

well if youre not going to put any artistic pictures up we will probably have to book a cheap last minute all inclusive stag do special weekender to lesbania see what you did?? all that money could have been spent on basschat polo shirts!
