You can make em,with a radius sanding block its not hard,you use double sided tape to stick them on.

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='483513' date='May 9 2009, 02:24 AM']Kurt Cobain wrote some great songs, Bleach is a brilliant record, he was a proper rock star. I'm not going to bad-mouth Billy Sheehan because he seems like he means well even though he's thick enough to take on board sci-fi fairy stories as religion, but to declare that Kurt Cobain should've killed himself because '80s hair rock was replaced by grunge is a really dickless thing to say. I'd prefer it if "progressive" music was from now on referred to as "regressive", given that it's a musical style from the 1970s. I think some of the "elitist" musicians here should stop whining that their apparently-not-so-valuable instrumental skills aren't as appreciated in the way they'd like them to be, stop blaming other people for it, grow a pair of balls and get on with making music like everybody else is doing.[/quote] +10 Cobain was a fantastic songwriter,im more of a funker than a grunger,but respect is due,to commit suicide is awful,and it was such a waste.

These basses were designed to be cheap,the bodies probably masonite and i think they were using old metal lipstick cases for the pickups,very collectable though,jimmy page used the guitar version alot.

Sounds like a duffer to me.

Good advert

I dont think it will be difficult to nail the notes,but the technique will be hard to nail quickly if you are not used to playing the line.

As regards to the east i always see them come up second hand on here but never the auderes i dont know if this is because less people use the audere or more people keep them,as soon as i have some spare wonga im putting one of these in my jazz.

Easy get an audere or john east preamp.

I always thought good Be-Bop was down to feel and timing more than anything,its probably more a case of unlearning stuff you already know.

I would maybe try the computer software route.

Be an exciting place to be then aye. Out of curiosity, where in your mind does a 'hobby' end and a 'career' begin?[/quote] Do you know any rich dancers/artists/phtographers/or P.E. teachers. You seem to be more of an positive thinker than me. Best of luck.

Jazz and its relatives funk etc are the reason i play bass if i had been into metal or rock more than jazz and funk etc i wouldnt have even bothered picking up the bass,i would have picked 6 string instead,not that i dislike metal or rock.

I must admit,i do like his hats.

It sounds like dave lee roth.

What happened to that fit bird who used to sing with them?

Building a decent phaser is a lot more difficult than building a fuzz,if you want a decent one you will need the right type of I.C. you will need to be pretty nifty at electronics to,also finding components in the uk for these projects is hard and you will need to know which ones you can substitute with maplin components. That is unless you order from a u.s. company like mouser who are better with this type of project.

If you dont want to be stuck at the back id go with cream.

They are good i have a pre grooved one on my highway 1 jazz,but i think they are far to much money considering its just a chunk of metal.

No im waiting for you to buy one and tell us if the tracking and latency is any good.

I dont think i would be able to play intricate 16th note patterns with a cello action,so i like it low.

Its a step in the right direction at least.

Dont do music at university, the chances of you making any decent money out of it are about as slim as you winning the lottery. Get a trade you can always fall back on this and you will usually make enough money to buy all the music stuff you want,besides if you are really interested in music and music technology you can learn all you want to know from books/magazines/internet.
