  1. [quote name='acidbass' timestamp='1494172713' post='3293770']. The rockabilly stuff was poor. [/quote] Heartily disagree.
  2. 440 is clearly superior to all your lesser tunings. Accept no lower pitch!
  3. More on bands and such in amsterdam: https://www.iamsterdam.com/en/visiting/whats-on/music
  4. Big improvement over the fender growth headstock, the colors matching better than the natural. Still, there's room for improvement. I like the m7 headstock, it's a direct copy of MTD.
  5. [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1493543930' post='3288977'] Good for Metal? [/quote] Yes http://youtu.be/IyQOw-_H4yE
  6. Kustom also has decent weighty stuff for not a lot.
  7. Uhmm no I guess whatever this month was. I really shouldn't be allowed on the internet before my first coffee. April it is!
  8. For these last days of march, Verellen amps has a 25% discount on all their products, and including custom work! Happy 10year anniversary Ben!
  9. Leiden is a lovely city, a boat trip on the canals, museums aplenty (Naturalis with some excellent huge dinosaur skeletons, Corpus for a trip through the human body, museum Volkenkunde has amazing exhibits for instance). Leiden-info.com has info on the nightlife and restaurants etc. Contact them to see if they have an english version of the website An hours drive is Edwin van Huik's bassconnection in Hilversum http://www.connectionbult.com/wp/ Excellent shop Bax has shops in Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and Goes. Not bass specific though. There's plenty more to see and do in Leiden https://www.visitleiden.nl/en/plan-your-visit/information/tourist-information-centre And most other citys are 30-60 minutes away by train. By car, avoid driving between 7-9am and 5-6pm. Enjoy!
  10. We started out as Cataract in the late nineties, turned out the name was taken. Then we were Terror for about three months and 9/11 happened. Some brainstorming brought me to Necrotaph. An epitaph is about someone's greatest achievements during their life, we write about the remarkable moments when they're dead 💀😃
  11. Nearly all of Psychobilly. Stray cats, meteors, tiger army, nekromantix, horrorpops, frenzy, batmobile... The Reverend Horton Heat is one of the few I caught in the 90s
  12. Bring the Mrs to your appointment, affirmation of your problems may help her understand what you're dealing with.
  13. Let's not lose sight of the goal here, two 210s and two 212sdriven by two amps. A 210+212 stack on each side of the drummert. Epic win is yours!
  14. There may be a reasonable explanation and simple fix. Or there might not be. Stressing about it will not help cure it but will keep your focus on the problem, making it seem worse than it may actually be. Deep breaths, do what you can, accept what you can't change for the moment.
  15. With all ear related problems more serious than earwax or a common cold, get a ENT referral/appointment asap! A GP doesn't have the specialist knowledge required for our complex hearing system. Inner ear problems usually have nothing to do with wax build-up, please get specialist advise and ignore the internet. I will graduate as an audiometrist in July, and I say don't f*** about with your hearing, it's damn hard to fix.

  17. [quote name='SpondonBassed' timestamp='1492152685' post='3278251'] Why does the BBC not keep its promise of delivering 5.1 surround? I only ever get the pro-logic logo on my receiver, never Dolby D or DTS. My understanding from the BBC's own HD TV promo was that they took great lengths to record in surround format. Pro-logic M sounds like surround but it isn't actually 6 channels... or is it? Curious. [/quote] "You don't do heavy metal in Dobly."
  18. Is that a veryextralarge SWR rig or is Fred teeny tiny?
  19. [quote name='bassjim' timestamp='1491902218' post='3276231'] ermm.......are Korn not very good overall? Its just that ok he is only 12 but if we are honest here, hes not very good and his band were rubbish. Yeah so he is connected via his dad and its great he is doing this rather than playing on an xbox, as are his band and yes I get it, its where you start ect but.........if I was a grammy awarded band I think I'd want more of a "pro" player to stand in. Or I'm just having a bit of a laugh. Or the parts are really that easy to play that even a 12 year old could do it. I've seen loads of 12 year old prodigies on youtube that put the fear into me but this kid, nice as he is, and as cool as his dad is just isn't.....well .... Maybe he is just coming on to do a number then straight off to bed and the real dep gets up. Or maybe his band is "holding him back" preventing the real talent to come out. Still I guess I'm just jealous because at his age all I could say is I played at a school fete and turned my back to the mums, dads and kids cause actually it was a right din. Sorry to any Korn fans. [/quote] All if any mistakes played surely are an improvement to the original composition.
  20. I've just read through this whole thread and now feel my brains cycling backwards Impressive!
  21. Isn't this why they invented the aluminium upright bass?
  22. [quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1491255691' post='3271672'] The Guilt of Stranglers. [/quote] Fixed!
  23. [quote name='gareth' timestamp='1490882626' post='3268773'] been there done it You need an all valve amp, trannies just dont hack it [/quote] Absolute nonsense. [quote]theplumber Yesterday, 06:37 PM Tell the guys to get a grip and turn down....[/quote] This. And turn down any sub/bass/low boosters on their amp. Those are for bedroom noodling but mess up the overall band sound.
