I own a few fenders and lakland basses but I was into my 40's before I could afford them.but my choice of gigging basses are a modified vmj and a modified j&d jazz atm they feel right and sound right in the bands im in so im happy to gig the cheapo basses.your time will come good luck with the new venture

as good a write up these basses get I cant stand the shape of the headstock

I had a new wiring loom from kiogan 250k pots and a 0.47 drop cap.for my vmj which has fender cs pick ups.it now has a darkish mellow tone

the nut on my j&d wasn't cut right and the fret ends were sharp in a few places.other than that great bass.oh and the electronics arnt so good but for £112 cant complain

the live rig I use for the rock covers band is genz seamliner 900 head 2 x 2x10 genz focus cabs mex pbass (goldfender)that I bought off here great bass live set up function band bd21 into the desk sony radio pack boss octave boss flanger boss chorus boss bass enhancer basses skyline dj4 and vmj with cs pick ups

nice to see megadeth finally get a grammy

any of you boys and girls own one of these?and what are your opinions on it and have you any regrets? I tried one earlier in the week only at shop volume.cant decide between the above or an American standard p

a second hand streamliner.i love mine

the black album by metallica

im quite lucky with the band im in at the moment.the drummer uses an electric kit the singer plays acoustic guitar and I run from my pedals into the desk.the drummer uses in ears so its just two small monitors for us.and with it being an electric kit we can turn right down if need. with my last band I was often pleased to see an on stage sound limiter because the guitarist insisted on bringing his 100 watt marshall valve head and 4x12 cab to every gig

ive had a few looms off KIOgon and been really impressed with the workmanship and quality of the parts used

the vm I own is 11 pounds its the maple body.shoulder aches after a long set even with a wide strap.but its so nice to play

music wise gas free atm.but really gassing for a capri 2.8

+1 for a KiOgon loom.ive got a couple of jazzes that he has done the wiring on.1 is a vmj with fender cs pick ups and a j&d with a set of dp123 pick up

my mates band Thy demise were asked if they wanted a 7 date EU tour with venom for £11000 it included travel and accommodation.they decided no t take it

I have two fenders and a lakland bass but my go to basses for gigs are a vmj and a jack and danny jazz. cheap as chips but they feel right and I don't mind if they take a knock

Belinda Carlisle has a few good tunes.also skunk and republica. sleeper were a good indy band with a few good songs.one final suggestion I think were alone now by tiffany

lakland dj4 fender modern player vmj-gotoh 201 bridge 60's cs pick ups uprated pots

got some on order cheers

I've started using effect pedals so I bought a kinsman pedal case [url="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kinsman-Ultima-ABS-Case-Effect-Pedal/dp/B001ELA2UW"]https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kinsman-Ultima-ABS-Case-Effect-Pedal/dp/B001ELA2UW[/url] and some Velcro with sticky stuff on the back to secure the pedals to the board.but no matter which way I stick them down they always come loose. so any one any tips to help them stay put cheers rob

I found the trick with the streamliner is to roll the bass knob back to 9 - 10 o'clock and boost the mids.id never sell mine I love it

we played at an event on Thursday night and the onstage sound was one of mush.when I asked the sound guy why it sounded so bad his reply was "its because you 15 foot off the bass bins".after 4 tries I gave up and struggled through the set.afterwards a mate said the bass out front was an inaudible rumble
