Drunk and clumsy. My favourite type of customer.

Not sure if this has happened to any of you but last week I attended a gig and the bass players amp died during the second set. As a fellow bass player was in need, I popped out to the car and brought in my head and cab (Markbass and Barefaced). The band and pub were very pleased to say the very least. Last night I had a gig there and usually only bring one bass but some Jedi force told me to bring a spare. Just as I hit the first note on the second song the D string broke! WTF.! I have a spare. Phew! Quick change over. All is well but had to play 2 sets on the heaviest flatwound Labellas. Aching forearms and tired fingers today. So pleased I had a back up plan. First time in 30 years it has happened. Anybody else got any stories?

Our drummer should. At the last rehearsal he actually slowed down on the 4 stick beat count in. It would be funny if it wasn't true!

If I use just one I set it vertically and if I use two then I stack them horizontally. Both stacked vertically seem a little wobbly IMO. Personally not worth taking the risk of being knocked over.

I had a rehearsal tonight. Not feeling very well, had been in bed all day with a high temperature so I guess my tolerance levels were lower than normal. The drummist was really getting on my nerves tonight. Playing every song too slowly, playing in between the songs, adding intros where there are none and playing it too straight with no dynamics, too much closed hi hat. We are a slightly funky blues band and it just sounded very pedestrian. When it's good it's great but other times....

Bridge cover only on my P bass. Looks cool and keeps the foam out of view too.

Thanks for the photos. Great looking equipment. I also have a DHA pedal and have a comfort strapp too!

Inappropriate profanities in songwriting
pbasspecial replied to mentalextra's topic in General Discussion
I'm by no means a prude as I love a good old swear from time to time. However, at my gym they play hip hop far too loud with tons of swearing. Not a fan. Personally find it too aggressive in an already testosterone fuelled environment. Asked them please could they either turn it down a bit or roll some of the bass off so I don't hear/feel it when I am listening to my music. They said "we don't always play hip hop, we also play garage and r&b" Like there's a difference to me -
I'm guessing this video was released on Sunday.

CAB recommendations to go with MarkBass Little Mark Tube
pbasspecial replied to BenGoldingBass's topic in Amps and Cabs
I use a Markbass tte500 (valve preamps) through 2 Barefaced Super Compacts. Sounds fantastic. 1 super compact is more than enough. I'm just very greedy. -

pbasspecial replied to yorks5stringer's topic in General Discussion
I think the singer was probably just trying to be upfront and not waste either of their time if it was going to be an issue. I believe that some people may wrongly confuse/associate transgenderism with transvestism. -
So 24 hours later. No response. No surprise. As WOT suggested, gonna suck it up and move on.

Loving your Zilla bass cab too. Any chance of some more photos?

I did a cash bank transfer as I wanted to keep all my bass purchases on the down low for a while its fine, just a bit disappointed that some people feel the need to bump up its condition. It's all about managing expectations. Its only a £30 pedal. At least he sent it. He could have kept the money and said it got 'lost in the post'
