[url="http://wheatsbassbook.org/"]http://wheatsbassbook.org/[/url] [url="http://www.harmony-central.com/Bass/Lessons/"]http://www.harmony-central.com/Bass/Lessons/[/url] I can't find a HC page I used to use. I remember it mentioning boxes, and just general info on composition and getting by on a little more that r5.

I sound retarded next to the AClaber types, but from reviews I've read in the past, within Hartke, I think it's definitely worth forking out a wee bit more for something with XL or .5 after it.

Encouragement is a good idea. Those joining up may not see the intro thread, or may be uncertain of its purpose. Especially those who aren't wise to forums. Plus, thinking about selling may distract from a normal standard of etiquette.

I like it! Are you going to leave the headstock black?

Welcome to the forum. I'll give the sounds a listen next time I've got me headphones.

I agree with the sparse voice for reason. The choice to introduce will tell me more than an introduction ever could.

Hi Woodruff. I think an Indie bassist could get by going straight into a band. Just learn the fretboard and stay with the rhythm player. I'll find a good BC theory link. I remember harmony central having some brilliant lessons. Welcome to the forum.

Watch out for that.

Nice to see a bass that's lived a bit. The Badass1 is a cool looking bridge.

Hi Ray. Welcome to Basschat.

Hi El Gnomo. Welcome to the forum. [quote name='el-gnomo' post='184152' date='Apr 23 2008, 09:52 PM']Thanks ! I only mentioned the good stuff !!!!![/quote] That's cheating!

Looks good, good find. What's it like working in a music shop?

Oooh, lucky you. Pic us.

Welcome to the forum, Ash. 'tis, indeed, never too late.

Welcome, I appreciate the avatar .

Not surprised it didn't sell.

Am I the only one who hasn't been to a member of Embrace's house? --- The band sounds great, Jake. I like the arrangement, but +1 on the vox. The singer doesn't sound at ease with it, maybe too much rehearsal? It all lifts at around 2:43, though, with the early '90s guitar sound. It sounds great, but I do think it's worth another pop. What do you think of it? edit: nice tone, btw. And very tasteful lines.

'2 years' I've recently retired my boots. I think they're older than me. And I could always have them re-soled. Converse at a wedding sounds awesome. I hope it's been ok'd, though. Women can get funny about this sort of thing, I understand.
