Bass-ic

Hi.
Is there a particular book which deals with all aspects of bass making that is considered the best source of information?
Cheers

Theres a thread that I started a while ago about this. It was generally received well. due to work, I wasnt able to do much more about it. I think Josh had a few ideas about running it.

Tascam MP-BT1 Works a treat!

[quote name='Sarah5string' post='725355' date='Jan 26 2010, 04:13 PM']Do you use anything on your strings? Fastfret etc?[/quote]

wassat, a quick panic?

oops sorry.

Almost my local.

Perhaps if you just went to the pub and stayed drunk for 2-3 days?

Doesn't sound good.

The only thing that ever clears earwax properly is warmed but not hot olive oil. 3 days max!
Ive heard some people say lemonade, but i haven't tried it!

Low riders - war
Dancing in the moon light - Thin Lizzy
Just kissed my baby - Meters

[quote name='JonnyB' post='715224' date='Jan 16 2010, 09:41 PM']Can I caution against Brass with Yamaha Silent Brass - okay for a few minutes a day but total reliance on the mute will wreck your chops (lips in the Brass world not flashy runs of scales etc!), the pressure and resistance is all wrong, no matter what it says in the ads. Plus, as has been mentioned before on this thread, the intonation is poor.[/quote]

I couldn't agree more.
I personally would use a cup mute. the sort where you can slide the cup around so tha it can be either quieter or louder.
This does make it really quiet and allows you to play properly.
even a harmon mute isnt great.
Matt

say that again?

here it is.

[quote name='Tinman' post='715053' date='Jan 16 2010, 06:05 PM']Have you thought of the Tascam MP-BT1 "Bass Trainer"

I have one and find it indispensable. Almost totally silent practicing, brilliant! [/quote]

'accept no substitute' and dont leave home without one! just be carefull of the on/off switch. Ive had to reapir mine 3 times, but its easy enough.

Someone else was selling an Ashdown mini rig on here somewhere for about £100
Its in the amps for sell section, Ill see if I can find it for you.

[quote name='Golchen' post='706331' date='Jan 9 2010, 10:08 AM']I bought it but I never use it. I got it to use with Garageband but it is pretty crap with GB. I think that it works a lot better with other software.

I'm desperate for a 3/4 drum pattern for a project, but it doesn't have anything useable![/quote]

jam studio has a 3/4

Not amazingly brilliant but a 3/4 pattern nonetheless

is it...'I will survive' ?

Send it to Waynepunkdude!

Hi Walman.
Thanks very much for putting this up. I llike it, and it'll prove challenging for me to try to work something out.
cheers

I think I would have something made.
Plus some very nifty amp setup etc.
Oh and a lot more lessons.

OG speaks wide words.

could well be.

Damn!
