Anybody else use one? have just got one today and having probs downloading the tones to it have installed Monkey and latest Java etc - Monkey can see the pod on the end of the usb and confirms that all the software/drivers/firmware/flash mem etc are all up to date edit-tone locker software is another matter however - the software recognises initially that the pod is at the other end of the usb then when it tries to refresh it shows an error message Your Bass PodXT has stopped responding. P{lease try resetting the power and clicking refresh in the tone locker. ive tried this - and installing uninstalling reinstalling etc making sure java totally up to date rebooted several times and still the same am running windows xp (fully updated) any ideas appreciated not tried midi connection as i only have one midi cable at present and need two apparently so just trying it with the usb for now ta muchly

thank goodness your name is jazzbassfreak - mods would have had kittens if you had called yourself P-freak or something

you know you wouldnt have this conundrum at all if you just settled for a second 410 with an LH1000 it would be rude not to .... you know it makes sense

[quote name='Twincam' timestamp='1390238752' post='2343000'] Ok so I'm going to order a nice new Fender Mustang hopefully next Monday. My first quality bass, so to say. Which has made me question what warrants me spending that much on a bass. As the other day I realised how bad my fingers are while watching bass playing vids. I can't make certain stretches which others make look easy and I play a short scale bass! seriously for some reason my fingers do not stretch well. It's literally physically impossible rather than me just needing to stretch them. Certain parts I have to play slightly different and can most of the time get away with it but others I just can't get. A few people said I play ok. But to me I'm crap and though I've not played long, I'm starting to worry that time and practice now won't be enough. I'm not gonna stop playing and I'm still gonna order a awesome bass. But I do feel disheartened. Anyone else ever feel like that?. [/quote] first of all.... if youll believe you are crap then your subconcious will spend most of the time developing that idea until you seriously believe it enough to the point where you do actually give up stretching is not everything and neither is flashy fast fly off fingers - there is no rule book as far as i am aware that says to be an accomplished bass player you need hands like shovels - after time you will develop a sense of economy with your playing style and you will come to realise you can play fast and slow with absolute minimal amounts of digital thrashing about and a very satisfying economy of movement if you find that your fingers dont move well then your hand/elbow will do more moving to compensate - try not to fall in to the practice of keeping yuour hand position fixed too rigid (thus making your fingers over-stretch) and allow your elbow/forearm to move to make small movements to your hand position so that your fingers dont do all the stretching

[quote name='bertbass' timestamp='1390135712' post='2341758'] I think it's because our Vince just can't sing, which is a bit of a disadvantage if you're the singer. Personally, I think poison is the best song he's ever done. I have the same problem as mentalextra but with Meatloaf. [/quote] ive never considered him a singer tbh more of a narrator (especially with the more theatrical material such as 'i love the dead')

how about a line6 pod for headphone practice?

[quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1390118848' post='2341533'] Which previously toured with morcheeba. It has mojo. Anyone a fan. ? I'd heard of them although have never heard any tracks [/quote] pics of the mojo please

[quote name='arthurhenry' timestamp='1390058696' post='2341017'] His earlier stuff is very unique, proggy and arrangement heavy. Very far from the likes of the awful "Poison" etc. Dennis Dunaway's bass playing is fantastic too.

[quote name='dincz' timestamp='1389389264' post='2333861'] As both Allparts and Thomann listed only one type of these washers, I assumed that they must be a standard size. They aren't and the ones from Allparts don't fit Looks like I'll have to go rummaging at the hardware store. [/quote] i have some nylon washers which FatRich sent me for my Status but they didnt fit - couldnt tell you the size but if you want to PM a postal address i'll put them in an envelope and post them on free of charge
