  1. I find that the 'extras' (drums, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, mandolin, keys, whatever) go in seasons but bass is my main thing, I could do any of the others in a band but bass is [i]my[/i] thing!
  2. I'd say yes as I can and do each new instrument I add makes me think differently about the other ones I play and improve on them too
  3. [quote name='Cyrene' timestamp='1349463492' post='1826759'] Hi. i've just cancelled my Amazon order in the hope i can have on please! [/quote] No prob matey, pm'd
  4. Trade for a p-bass?
  5. Hi are the George L's the .155 pedal board type ones or the bigger guitar cable ones? are they still around and would you just sell those separately?
  6. any particular species of 4 string you're looking for? My p-bass is available for trade but I'd need to put some wonga to if we can agree a price? Link in my sig matey
  7. [quote name='woodyratm' timestamp='1349355599' post='1825194'] Think the Pro-17 ones. [/quote] ta matey [quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1349355352' post='1825188'] ACS all the way, don't sell yourself short, I haven't looked back since getting mine 2 years ago. Si [/quote] What about you Si? which ones did you go for? 17, 20, 26? A
  8. [quote name='woodyratm' timestamp='1349354633' post='1825169'] I don't understand us music types. We blow tons of cash against stuff to make the noise, but when it comes to protection we seem to ignore it. The custom ones are great - I got because my hearing is already mong'd. At 23 thats pretty rubbish. Get ones which are comfy to wear and allow you to hear everything. My ACS ones were 140 odd and it's the best purchase I've made. Practice sounds better since I'm not being deafened. I wouldn't substitute decent ones just cause other ones are cheap. I've used ER15s, Alpine, foam blah blah and always felt they removed the wrong frequencies or were just not comfy (ER15s made my ear itch). [/quote] Which ACS ones you got matey? These the right folks? [url="http://www.hearingprotection.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=65&Itemid=127"]http://www.hearingprotection.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=65&Itemid=127[/url] I've got alpine ones and if there's a better solution I want to investigate it!
  9. Recent threads about how you do your covers got me wondering aout how the basschat population is made up, what proportion of us get their musical kicks from mostly playing covers or mostly playing originals or mostly in your bedroom/lounge/whatever... I'm a mostly covers player, I do help out a few friends who gig occasionally with their singer/songriter output but it's not as often as I'd like! Neither is the covers band really but it's the most frequent thing I do...
  10. I learn any critical bits note for note and any other bits are a bonus if I get them note for note too, as long as it swings like the original and any memorable bits are right I don't worry too much, over time I develop 'my way' of playing the song which generally still involves any 'don't mess with it' bits an the rest may be tweaked to suit the way we play it...
  11. I use these: [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Alpine-Music-safe-pro-reusable-attenuating-earplugs-hearing-protection-ear-plugs-/330687547031?pt=UK_BOI_ProtectiveGear_RL&hash=item4cfe838697"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Alpine-Music-safe-pro-reusable-attenuating-earplugs-hearing-protection-ear-plugs-/330687547031?pt=UK_BOI_ProtectiveGear_RL&hash=item4cfe838697[/url] THey really help cut down on the noise level but still let me listen to a balanced sound, I literally never leave the house without mine!
  12. Nice playing and pretty bass!
  13. I love my NXT, they're a superb introduction into EUB and sound superb in a mix!
  14. [s]Still clearing the drawers out...came across these adaptors from when I had ehx pedals, they're the blue ones, now the pedals are all gone I don't need these adaptors anymore... They'll work with any boss type adaptor, you'd need to check whether they play nicely with your other pedals on the same power supply though...I used them with my diago with no problems (small clone, small stone) Apparently also good for rat and dod pedals...I didn't know that mint condition. [attachment=120017:IMAG0805.jpg] [b]1 left[/b] They're £7 new, so, £5 inc UK postage (or £4 + postage)?[/s]
  15. My guitarist friend is now looking after my okf (the one you modded with a gain and volume control) so it's a tkf really! He loves it and says it's the most useable fuzz he's ever found and he's a pro sound guy too so he's dead picky!!
  16. [quote name='Stickman' timestamp='1349207104' post='1823378'] What trades would you be interested in mate? [/quote] Good question buddy, I've dropped you a pm
  17. This is still haunting me, you don't fancy a trade for my Certainbass '61 p-bass with some cash your way do you?
  18. [s]For sale or trade, my Fischer IEM hardwired body back...bought new from Thomann last year and used a handful of times before our PA changed around and I no longer have the luxury of a spare aux send for my personal monitoring! Manufacturers specs etc: [url="http://fischer-amps.de/en/in-ear-monitoring/hardwired-body-pack/artikel/ab-sofort-lieferbar/akkus-ladegeraete/akkus-ladegeraete.html"]http://fischer-amps....adegeraete.html[/url] ...pics to follow...in the meantime here are some stock pics of it [attachment=119953:Fischer Amps Body Pack 4.jpg] [attachment=119954:Fischer Amps Body Pack 5.jpg] [attachment=119955:Fischer Amps Body Pack 7.jpg] I paid £150, I'd be happy with £125 inc uk postage £100 + postage as it's as new! Trades (same list as for my Certainbass '61 P-bass)? ...amps - I fancy a genz streamliner 900 or mebbe a markbass to try ...cabs - barefaced S12T or midget with black grill and tweeter ...other bits - diago pedal power, sfx microthumpinator[/s]

    [quote name='krysh' timestamp='1347320808' post='1799423'] my custom jazz 4 got a new pickguard, not everybodies but my taste, I love it. [/quote] Here's what happened to the body Krysh's neck came from...it got a fretless job installed by BassDoc! The Geddy body with Dimarzio Model J's and Schaller bridge marries beautifully with the new neck, looks kinda cool too in a very simple sort of way [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/andy_dye/8022896313/][/url] [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/andy_dye/8022896313/]DPP_2505[/url] by [url=http://www.flickr.com/people/andy_dye/]andydye[/url], on Flickr [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/andy_dye/8022896965/][/url] [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/andy_dye/8022896965/]DPP_2504[/url] by [url=http://www.flickr.com/people/andy_dye/]andydye[/url], on Flickr [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/andy_dye/8022897501/][/url] [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/andy_dye/8022897501/]DPP_2503[/url] by [url=http://www.flickr.com/people/andy_dye/]andydye[/url], on Flickr
