[quote name='Johngh' timestamp='1358620052' post='1942384'] Stumbled across a guitarist called Buckethead. I've been listening to a lot of his stuff [/quote] With cans, I presume?

Hey, Beachy D, Welcome into the fold. Happily we don't discriminate Mercans here - just treat them very badly, using incomprehensible expressions and words and stuff. But you'll survive. Enjoy the fora, and good luck with the hunt for the bubinga Yamaha. BTW, what does dbeachy mean? I undecyphercrypted some of it, but not all: d = ? b = basses e = effects a = amps c = cabs h = headphones y = ? [quote name='molan' timestamp='1358610830' post='1942175'] I've spent some time in Virginia touring on a big old Harley - lovely state and nice people [/quote] Hm. I've spent some time in Virginia too. Found no other people there at the same time though. Sure you did everything right? best, bert

Sadly, another one hit the dust: http://www.progrockmag.com/news/van-der-graaf-generators-nic-potter-dies/

Speak up, Maurie love. Can't hear you.

Twas an attempt at some innocent fun with the concept of having gear with one's own name, not an attempt to annoy anyone. best, bert

Hi Ped, Welcome to BassChat. Lightning fast career too! Great avatar you got. Any cats inside that thing? best, bert (who doesn't drive a Clitroen, but would like to make pictures of a Clitroen SLM some day)

[quote name='balkanboy' timestamp='1358478454' post='1940065'] That is not too generous...Im on the mission from God to improve the bass sound of the world [/quote] Ooooohw. Well, in that case, I've PM'ed you my postal address to send the bass to. b, b

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1358463080' post='1939894'] No it isn't - my name's Mark, too. [/quote] While that may be true, Billy-Jack, it wasn't me who made the general public aware. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1358463080' post='1939894'] You'll be getting the right cab for one of the two right reasons! Markbass cabs are also excellent. [/quote] Fixed. best, bert

[quote name='Rodulator' timestamp='1358461694' post='1939858'] I would love a mark bass cab as my name is mark and for no other reason. [/quote] You're a man after my heart, Mark! (Note that Discreet's real name is Bill-Maurice (yeah, I know), and that he's a man after my heart too. ) Welcome to BC, at any rate. I noobly can't help on the fiver, sorry. Enjoy the bass and the chat! best, bert

Oh oh! Dit gaat helemaal goed fout. Nou, OK dan maar: Welkom, jochie, van een oude orgel/synthman die ook slagwerk aan het leren is en een ruim jaar geleden is overgestapt op basgitaar, en die vorige week een fretloze bas heeft besteld die over een paar dagen aankomt. Alleen: woon niet in Malmö maar in Zuid-Noorwegen. Tsjongejonge. Welcome, Ronald! You've got what it takes to be here: a net scanner and the ability to find out this is a good bass forum. Congrats! Scan the vast site and its info, and join the chat. Enjoy! best, bert

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1358449956' post='1939494'] No he's not, he's Norwegian. [/quote] No, he's not. He's Dutch. (... living in Norway though.) best, bert

[quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1358440838' post='1939241'] price tag [/quote] Priceless, like. The rest. best, bert

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1358388462' post='1938454'] Ah-ha..! That explains a lot... [/quote] Yeah, it does, doesn't it? But I didn't wanna go there, and rather show you Brit lot some consideration. I'm sorry you delved into it. Remember the site and its owners are legally responsible. best, bert

¡Hola! Welcome to BC! I hope that you will have a great time on BassChat. If you have bad GAS, you must eat more sensibly, so you save money and can buy more gear. It is very simple: Milk and rolled oats is what you need. Enjoy! best, bert

Hey and welcome! Great sobriquet. Do you fight [i]for[/i] or [i]against[/i] Fleadom? Anyway, enjoy the site, and chat away all you like. There's both people and me here to chat with. best, bert

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1358371143' post='1938161'] was it really that good? Each to their own i suppose. [/quote] Made me LOL at least. Also, I'm a foreigner. Much goes over my head, but this didn't. best, bert

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1358370506' post='1938145'] Where did this thread go wrong? Oh yeah, when i started typing it. [/quote] Class! Thanks, mate! Made my day. best, bert

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1358365655' post='1937968'] Ask me about death metal... go on... i dare you. [/quote] - What's your opinion on [b]The Third & The Mortal[/b]'s fourth album? - Do [b]Old Words New[/b] need a reunion with their old singer, in your opinion? best, bert

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1358349388' post='1937496'] Nige puts the fear of God in to me Mainly because he is far far smarter than me [/quote] What? That's God? I seriously thought it was an old red indian. But yeah, he's very scary. That's why I never ever disagree with Nige, even though he's always wrong. Nige is only far smarter than you because we all are! best, bert

Bu', bu' ... that vid doesn't answer my question?!? Having three times as much as he has - is [b]that[/b] too much? b, b

Continued bliss the last few days. Selling everything I see in the vicinity, vaguely hoping I do own some of it, and buying bass gear off the revenue. Ashbory arrived, CV 50s P has arrived in the shop, and the fretless StingRay fiver is en route in the postal system. Took posession of a Terror Bass 500 and a Micro Terror (love that little thing, even as a practise amp for bass!). Man, I'm gonna have to sell a lot of bass gear soon ... Seem unable to stop practising on the Ashbory. Dunno why I love it, but I do. Have only heard it through the Micro Terror, and am not curious about hearing it through the rest. This is sooo much fun! best, bert

Hey Dan, Welcome to BC! Many here know about kids and wives getting in the way indeed. You're not alone. As a noob, I can't recognise your Ibanez. What model is it? Normally one would expect the other knowb to be along the lines of treble attenuator and pickup mix. If you don't hear that, maybe there's a loose thread somewhere, or your reproduction gear lacks treble? Idunno. Just shouting out quick thoughts. Anyway, ask away and enjoy the site! best, bert

Hey Paul Gustave fan! Welcome to BC! Fit like mae loon? Sorry, no can do any more attempts at any Gaelic or Doric or even Glaswegian. Bu': punk's grate, innit? All sweet 'n' flowery like. I lurv'it. Enjoy the forum, the fora and the forii, and don't be an alien. best, bert

Welcome! Though you may have left already? best, bert

Hi Jalapeno, Welcome! What Leen says. Me, I was just gonna punch in some bass tones in keyboard recordings. Now see what happened. Enjoy the site, and enjoy the banter. best, bert
