Yeah there's plenty on evilbay but I can't be arsed waiting. I'll see if there's a maplins near me, thanks man. I have a positive centre I might modify, my work does cable moulding so that's probably my best bet for a short term fix

Is there anywhere on the high street (b&q, Argos etc) that I can get a 9v adapter with a negative centre? I was hoping to blast my new mooer fog at practise this weekend but I haven't got an adapter. Numb nuts here thought it would take a battery, doh! :-/

Wow some immense lists! I've only just bought my fourth bass, I've been playing for about 14 years too! Anyway! P bass copy circa 1995, nice bass, red and white. No name but had seymour duncan single coil pups. Mostly used for mindless punk! Now away to be de fretted. Squier p bass circa 1999, hated it! It was the same colour as the copy. Terrible! I thought I had lost any ability I had until I went back to the copy! Put me off squier. It put me off changing until last year! Ibanez srx430 white/black. Best bass I've played! Trialed loads of basses and chose this one. Its perfect for me ergonomically! Sounds fat too! This is my main one. Bought brand new. Nice preamp and mid tone knob is sweet. Sounds ace doing anything! Tanglewood rebel 4k. Was a runner up in the search. Amazing for the price I thought, but I just just got a quick jam. I receive it on Tuesday so hopefully it arrives safely! It will need set up and mybe more but it was a bargain second hand. Will be using as a dropped tuned bass for a few songs. My copy doesn't like being dropped! I've caught the bug now though! Watch this space!

£100 second hand job!

Due to issues with singers hitting notes (or not) we have decided to drop to e minor tuning for a few songs. To save a bit of faffing around on stage, I'm going to use a second budget bass. I've spotted a tanglewood rebel 4k I like the look and price of. Can anyone vouch for these ladies?

Thanks dude, I'll check that out. Yeah I play through a 800w but still can't hear it, maybe its earplugs I need! I've done some basic recording but the quality is shocking. I have a friend I'm away to work with who creates drum n bass tunes.

Thanks for responding I'm just looking to record some solo stuff, I'd like to listen to myself retrospectively, I also forget stuff I come up with all the time. So just a rough demo I suppose. I have a Samsung lappy. I was out the game for a long time but have just joined a function band with a brass section, I can hardly hear myself a lot of the time! Thanks again!

There's a local guy selling a lexicon alpha with reverb software? Yae or nae?

It seems the way in which music is recorded has changed a lot in my time away! Could anyone recommend a starter USB interface for recording my bass onto my notebook? Its an active, not sure if that's relevant. Also is there anything else I'd need? ie software etc. I've always just played live so its all new to me this malarky and need it put into Lehmanns terms! Thanks Stu.

Fascinating! Well first practice tonight :-) went well. I just played the chords and no one seemed to mind :-) I'd been perfecting that trumpet solo bit from superstition like buggery then the bloody trumpet player couldn't play it cos its too fast!!! Grrr.

LMFAO

Thanks guys, I've been asked to learn 12 songs and I've thrown 2 back at them that I could play with my eyes shut. I'm just trying to get basic riffs down so I can play something and hopefully they'll evolve after some practise. YouTube is handy in such situations! Its just sh*t luck that I'd never played any of them before!
