    [quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1455494484' post='2979656'] silly me, what a pratt I am, assuming that anybody who used this site had a least one bass, shame you live in Plymouth, I've got an Encore bass you could have for nothing, because that's what it is worth (as mentioned earlier I found it leaning against a dustbin) [/quote] Why don´t you just ship it to him? I´m sure it will only cost 10 pounds.., If you´re interested, I´d be more than happy to participate in the shipping costs in order to help a fellow bass player get a bass!

    A friend of mine has 107 basses and counting - ranging from Squier Affinity´s to a 1964 Hofner Violin.....

    I know that most of you probably have never heard of Dave Mirra, but he was a top BMXer: Having received my first bike when I was 5, and having spent most of my childhood and teenage years (and even early adulthood) riding bikes, it was with sadness that I´ve just heard that Dave commited suicide.... RIP Sorry, but I needed a place to share my sadness .... PS What the hell is going on!!!???!?!?!?...

    RIP Lemmy

    Just heard this story the past weekend, and I thought I should share it with you. A really good friend of mine, who also happens to be a bass player, went to see Motorhead back in the late 80´s, when they came to play in Portugal (Cascais) - it was his first metal show, so he and his friends (who were all in his mid-teens) made all the proper arrangements, to make sure that nothing was forgotten - food, water, someone to take them to the gig, etc. The show was a blast and everything went well until the end of the show, when they realized that they had forgot to arrange with their parents, the trip back home... Mind you that this was way before mobiles and all that stuff, and none of them had drivers license... There they were, these 16/17 years old kids, stranded outside the venue with no way to get back. The crowd soon disbanded, and eventually the only ones left were my friend and his friends - along came Motorhead leaving the venue - they were happy to see all these young kids, and gave them their autographs and moved on to the tourbus - except Lemmy! He stayed behind and talked a little bit more with my friend and the other kids - Lemmy found it amusing that they were all young but already were giving their first steps in music. Eventually my friend told him that they were stuck at the venue, as everybody forgot to get someone to pick them up... Lemmy, being the nice guy that we all have heard about, offered them a ride on their tourbus! Unfortunatelly, the tourbus was going to Lisbon, and all of them lived in the opposite direction - still, they could have taken a ride and, when in Lisbon , just catch a train back home... But they politely refused. Lemmy entred the bus and all these kids, included my friend, couldn´t believe how lucky they were (even if they outside in the cold), Eventually someone went to a phone booth (remember those ) , and called home. That´s it - another one nice deed by Mr. Lemmy RIP

    "Take my breath away" from "Top Gun" OST Don´t know if it is bass or not, but everytime I play it on bass (with a nice amount of chorus), to get the crown laughing, I get real close to the original, and people recognize it immediatelly!
  11. Stance
    I only use old strings (unless they have rust spots) - otherwise, no new strings at all!

    [quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1451521291' post='2941306'] Really, what attitude would that be? In all the interviews I've read and seen women speak of him as a perfect gent. There's a nice one in the last film, a female bass player is talking about Lem. Her name escapes me, but maybe I can locate it on the net. [/quote] Melissa auf der Maur? Paz Lenchatin?
  13. Stance
    Still think that Under Pressure is THE basslines (and I really hate Queen), but due to MC hammer, I think "Superfreak" most get some recognition
  14. Stance
    I know that this isn´t going to make me any popular, but it´s the first time I heard it,.... To me, and not being a Queen fan at all, I got to say that "Under pressure" , must be the most recogisable bassline. Thanks for this piece of RnR history .)

    Not a fan of the music, but I had (and still have) a lot of respect for him- (actually, on Sunday - the day he passed away - I was recommending "Lemmy" to a friend of mine, totally oblivious that soon he would leave this place...) He came through as a true rocker and a trully honest person about his life and what he did in music ... I´m sure that there aren´t many like him around... RIP Lemmy. PS. To those of you who haven´t seen it, I recommend the 2010 documentary called "Lemmy" -
