  1. Gene Perez is THE man. I would go so far to say that Masters At Work (Louie Vega and Kenny Dope), would be nothing without his contributions to their millions of hits and remixes.
  2. Congratulations, although you might not have time/energy to play at first! My musical output is 10% of what it was before kids, but I wouldn't have it any other way.
  3. Yeah - what you save on the purchase price you lose on the Osteopath bills!
  4. It does need to get there, in one piece, and you are responsible for its well being on it's journey back.. so you might be wise not to choose the cheapest courier!
  5. Found the MAC version dmg, full unrestricted. I'm not going to post it here, but if you want it PM me.
  6. I'm happy to do the same for the mac version if anyone is interested, pretty sure I still have the download stored somewhere.
  7. If anybody is on Mac, I use a tool called RiffStation - it's specifically designed for this job. Will even do most of the transcription for you (shows you the chord fingering etc). Brilliant bit of software & I think it's free nowadays
  8. Well done to your son! Fantastic achievement!
  9. Myself and Mrs B sell a lot of stuff online (not on Basschat) - probably 10-15 sales a day on eBay/Amazon. In our experience 99% of people who hit the ask the seller a question button are either [1] not going to buy, [2] or do buy and cause you grief further down the road. If I had my way, I'd instantly block people that ask questions from buying from me, but Mrs B is far more reasonable.
  10. I'm sure you'll be very pleasantly surprised at what a difference a proper setup will make. He/she will get the action down and remove the fret buzz.
  11. I don't know if it's my eyes but the action on the bass looks very high. Get it set up properly, you'll find it much more comfortable
  12. Agreed. Also if your only means of amplification is wedded to your computer - your natural instinct is to sit in front of the computer to play your bass. Sometimes it's nice/healthy just to turn off the computer, and play through an amp & detatch from technology!

    Monitors

    Get yourself to a store where you can audition several sets of monitors side by side. Take a CD/thumb drive with music that you will be working on. Be guided by your ears rather than what people advise you on the internet!
  14. This is the best advice on this thread!
  15. NN2 to Berkshire, Hampshire or Surrey is a bit of a pull!
  16. Where is your location - it doesn't say.
  17. Bit obvious, but how about Maggot Brain? If they turn that down too, there's no hope..
  18. Eddie Hazel - I Want You
  19. How about something from Eddie Hazel ? ... he would cover all your bases
  20. Good luck & have a fantastic time. You'll be great!
  21. Also, I think if I'd paid out for a recording session, broke a string and was so disorganised I wasn't carrying a spare set of my usuals... id be grateful for whatever I could grab!
  22. You'd never be able to stock the variety that would appeal to a large number of players & make any money.
  23. I think any difference in the wood is going to pale in to insignificance once that 18v pre-amp kicks in! It's a true beast
  24. Absolutely - but some people have to burn to learn!
