You're both wrong.

In my day, Paradox was a Brighton nightclub.

Carry on.

Strange. I was listening to that very song only last night.

The 5-string as we know it today has a low B and Fender had nothing to do with it.[/quote] You said Fender didn't make a 5 for years, you said nothing about how it was tuned. If I tune my 4 string BEAD is it no longer a 4 string bass?

Ho ho!

sh*t in a margarine tub and send it to them. Fair's fair.

[quote name='XB26354' post='470636' date='Apr 23 2009, 12:56 PM']Yeah and you're Mr reasoned argument on here aren't you? What was it you said in reply to the above - disabled or spastic?[/quote] Retarded if I remember correctly. I called your position on this retarded. Nice to see you're consistent. Annoying prat? Old school. I like your style.

[quote name='bilbo230763' post='470627' date='Apr 23 2009, 12:50 PM']Wonder why that is? [/quote] 'cos I don't hang around with geeks?

Ahh, but don't forget XB26354 is the guy who, when talking about the difference between US and Mexican Fenders, famously said: "The MIA is for snobs that have to have Made in the USA on the headstock" ...so I'd take everything he says about Fenders with a large pinch of salt.

[quote name='bilbo230763' post='470402' date='Apr 23 2009, 09:21 AM']START NOW. LEARN TO READ. IT'S BRILL![/quote] Don't have time and have never played with another musician who can read.

[quote name='TomorrowDreamer' post='470187' date='Apr 22 2009, 11:20 PM']Hmmm and how much would this great deal be costing me?^^[/quote] You have a PM.

Have you played there before?

...and if you don't like the tone of this, have you considered second hand? I can do you a great deal on a 700w Peavey Firebass Head and 2x10 cab, only 'cos I like you mind.

I own the terribly named BassBomber and I rate it as one of the best sounding combos I've ever played. However, its worth bearing in mind that my tastes seem far from the norm amongst bass players! If you like a bass sound with plenty of mids, this isn't for you. If you like playing trebly prog metal, this isn't for you. If you like a lot of tonal flexibility, it isn't for you. If you like a vintage thud or a dub sound, then maybe it is for you. I'd advise that you give it a go before committing though. In terms of playing live, unfortunately it doesn't have a DI output, so you'd have to buy a DI box if you want to run it through the PA without mic'ing it up. Having said that, I've played it live and its sounded great to me ears, and have been complimented on the tone. But maybe I'm deaf and maybe people are just being kind?

[quote name='Machines' post='469617' date='Apr 22 2009, 02:13 PM']95% of my playing time is alone nowadays.[/quote] Have you considered speed dating?

[quote name='bilbo230763' post='469587' date='Apr 22 2009, 01:38 PM']Neither do I. Someone just moved my keyboard 1 cm to the right at just the wrong moment.[/quote] It's all that 1 handed typing Bilbo.
