Mine are Take 5 and So what (along with a load mentioned already).... I really like autumn leaves tho, so cant agree with that. Admitadly the way most people play it sucks to high heaven, but if it really swings and doesn't have those god awful cheesy stabs in (ala Cannonball...) it really is a tune :-)

[quote name='backwater' post='232629' date='Jul 4 2008, 12:51 PM']Well considering this : 60 dB = conversation, dishwasher 50 dB = moderate rainfall I think the meter at 54db will be tripped by someone laughing within earshot of it! Seems a little over-restrictive. Andy [/quote] I did a gig where there was a limiter recently - we knew it wouldn't go well when someone banged his hand on the bar and it turned the power off!

Hi... I've got a rocktron power supply, and want to get hold of an extra daisy chain to power more pedals. It says it can power upto 20 pedals, and that extra chains are available, but i can't find them! A standard boss style daisy chain doesn't seem to work... Anyone any ideas? Cheers!

Hi, just a little plug for one of my main projects... Called Apogee, it centers on the combination of Flute and Bass guitar. 3 sections to the gig, duets, (flute & BG), trio (Flute, BG and bass clarinet) and band (Flute, bg, bass clarinet and drums). I'm really excited about it, and how its sounding - we really are trying to do something different, but not just for the sake of being different, but cos it really works. It has its routes in Jazz, with improv etc. You can check out some recordings here; [url="http://www.myspace.com/apogee2008"]http://www.myspace.com/apogee2008[/url] Gig is at Careys (just off of Cov ringroad), doors at 8, we go on about 9 ish (maybe a bit before). Tickets are £2.50 on the door. Would be really good to see some fellow bassists there. Cheers. Alex.

I think a clear guard would look swish :-)

I use a hercules stand - its foldable, but hardcore enough to hold a real book...

Just wondered if anyone knew which Lionel Hampton recordings he played electric bass played on? I know he was with the band 1951-1953, but don't know what albums were recorded in that time? Also, any other early recordings he played bass guitar on - I have some of the Mastersounds recordings, but i think there was a group with his brothers after the lionel hampton things, and before the Mastersounds - anyone know anymore? Alex.

Anyone know where i can get a pre-cut nut for my mim Jazz 5? Ideally a graphite one, but brass would be ok... Alex.

Yeah i agree, also for me its something i developed through need - not just wanting to beable to do a certain technique.

Just put some Bartolini's in my Jazz 5 and they sound gorgeous... it all depends on your idea of a perfect sound and technique tho...
