I know it does the job when I'm not constantly changing it or fiddling around with it

Sounds like a plectrum to me

I use an app called songster on my iPad
It's a mere £6.99 but has over 500,000 guitar and bass tabs, the iPad also plays the track for you so you can learn by ear, but glance at the tab if you can't work out the notes
I think you can slow it down as well if needed

I think Songsterr's a great app too, good at showing you the basics but some tracks are lacking the detail -

Funny enough, in the "Amps & Cabs" section, we have this...

That's not what I was thinking, sure it explains it to you, but not as simply as the post in this topic -

Amp at 4 ohms =
1 4ohm cab
or
2 x 8ohm cabs
or
4 x 16ohm cabs

Something like this should be stickied, I spent ages trying to figure out what I needed until someone on here explained it as simply as this.
Really helpful if you haven't got a clue like me -
I put a set of Fenders on a fretless and they sound really nice, but they're a bit stiff and I had to adjust the neck because they're so thick
-
I like PJ's too, means I only have to carry around one bass

Oasis are on their way soon according to NME.com -
GHS Pressurewounds are pretty good too, but they tend not to last very long for me

Some more Friday afternoon pedantry:
Should have, not should of -
I just think they look cool

It's crossed my mind before now, don't worry you're with friends here at funkaholics anonymous.

I think everybody gets that from time to time, I've been playing three years now and I still get days when my hands decide that they hate me and refuse to let me play anything.
Just wade through it until it comes back to you -

Pick me because it's my birthday

I like Oasis and I think he's quite funny, same with Noel.
Don't take them too seriously I say -
That's good, nice one
Does anyone know why it's set in Chester but the characters sound scouse and mancunian? -

In my head, it's when cash is exchanged, so buying an album, t shirt, gig ticket, that sort of thing, because that to me shows that you're willing to put your hard earned cash into listening to a particular band, and they're not just a band what you'll listen to when they come on the radio.

Yeah it's exactly the same for me -

So its beyond you to remember the position of half a dozen knobs then ?.

Was it beyond him to remember to bring his own amp then?

[quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1369429912' post='2089313']
to be honest, that's pretty lame behaviour in my opinion.
By all means, refuse to lend someone an amp. That's cool. But to lend them one and then duct tape the controls? That's pretty sad.
[/quote]
I left him the volume and channel switch. He could always have gone into the desk or brought along his own amp couldn't he?
I don't care how "sad" or "weird" it was. -
The only time I lent my amp out at a gig I put duct tape over the controls to stop him changing my settings, and the guy was happy with that, after the gig they all sloped off without saying thanks.
A few months later I heard he'd been slagging me off afterwards because he couldn't get "his sound," and I was being "totally unreasonable."
If you turn up to a gig without an amp just expecting to borrow someone else's then don't be surprised if they put a few ground rules down.
That's if you're lucky enough to be allowed to use one in the first place.
Just played with a pick for the first time!

Picks are great, you can get a really nice sound if used properly.
I can see why some players don't use them, but to write them off just because they're not traditional is only limiting yourself
