Higgie

Xotic X-Blender is the best one available. Not cheap, but it can't be beaten IMO.

What's with that daft slapping thing in the middle though [/quote] Lol! Thanks very much. My dad is a bass player too so I just inherited it I guess And I dunno about the daft slapping thing, just spur of the moment! haha

Thanks mate. I take it you mean the P from the "I Wish" video? It's a 1982 JV Squier with a Dimarzio Model P. Best Precision I've ever played! You should hear it at full volume in a band situation. Thunderous but cuts through the mix like a hot knife through butter

Just added "Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick" to my [url="http://www.youtube.com/user/Higgie1423"]Channel[/url].

Not quite sure how the original goes, I've only heard it a couple of times so I'm not sure how accurate it is. I think its got a nice groove to it anyway (if you don't count the mistake when I put the first 2 lines together ). I do each line first then combine them. It's my Shuker Jazz into a PJB Bass Buddy, and using the headphone out into the Mic In on my computer and recorded with Audacity. No effects applied.

Chingford here...Technically London but I play in an Essex-based band! Good to have you here

Ah I see. Yeah that's the case. The Black one was the first one they brought out. The Silver was brought out as it had a "flatter" EQ response. Then the SR followed as it was even flatter!

[quote name='silddx' post='715869' date='Jan 17 2010, 06:34 PM']Yeah! The Wonder track is ace! I so don't play that style, I feel like having a crack at something like that now.[/quote] Thanks very much! It's just one of them tunes that makes your head bounce!

[quote name='stonecoldbass' post='705631' date='Jan 8 2010, 03:55 PM']Nice man! I like the authenticity of I Wish, not many people get all the little inflections, great vintage tone too. keep it up![/quote] Thanks mate - That's what I was going for! That P-Bass really is the best P I've ever heard or played! And it's the cheapest bass I own!!

Just drop the E down to D. Easy fingering, and sounds better. Is it REALLY that much hassle just to drop the string a tone for one song and then back up again?

[quote name='gnasher1993' post='714726' date='Jan 16 2010, 12:11 PM']More mids than the others variants also has flatter EQ which means I can shape the overdrive with my EQ pedal.[/quote] I always thought the first Black LTD had the most mids! From what I remember the silver one had less of a mid hump and was the reason it was brought out?!

[quote name='essexbasscat' post='714159' date='Jan 15 2010, 06:45 PM']Hi folks Does anyone know if a gs 112 and a db 112 would be a good match from the same amp ? the amp could vary TBH Recently picked up an Aguilar gs112 from fretmiester that pops in around here and just wondering about the possibilities. It's reported in reviews the two cabs have slightly different characteristics. Do they compliment, or clash ? Thanks everyone T[/quote] I would guess that having matching sets would be better...I use a DB112 and a DB112NT with my AG500SC and it sounds AWESOME.

Damn - Just recently started getting into the Dan properly (knew a few of their tunes before hand but never really made an effort to check out more of their stuff) and I would have loved to have seen this, but unfortunately I'm gigging myself. Good luck with the gig, hopefully I'll be available for the August show
