Thoughts of a Dying Atheist is not too complicated, it's just pretty fast, well by my standards. Edit - realised I'd not done the link properly...

Oooh a Gripmaster... Handy! See what I did there. -
Well, I just finished it, and I have to say, it's a bloody good read! Lots of moments when I was really laughing a lot! Will post it off to Wayne at some point soon

Intrested, do need to raise the cash first though!

Right, my time is up, so I'll start sorting out postage and stuff with whoever is next! -
In no particular order, though Matt Bellamy is my favourite. I'll bung in a good example of each, even though you've probabally heard them all anyway! Hendrix - Bloody mahussive hands!

Really sad to hear of your loss Nick, it's a terrible thing to lose someone you love. Not too sure if I'd be able to make it to this Bash, unless I could wangle a lift, but I'd be happy to make a contribution to the charity donations regardless! All the best, Jim

Muff back up!

[quote name='benwhiteuk' post='396721' date='Feb 1 2009, 12:27 PM']I’m going through the same process at the moment, but from a Line 6 Pod XT Live. I’ve already got a separate pedalboard built up with 5 fuzz/overdrive pedals (yes, I really do need that many ), a synth/auto wah/envelope filter type pedal, a phaser, a compressor, and I need to get a tuner. Basically I’ve got 2 effect solutions at the moment cos I’m trying to put off selling the Pod. I’ve used the Pod for 3 years and it’s been great for me but it’s just not versatile enough and I find it can be a bit too big/bulky for what it actually is. If it was smaller then I’d have it on a pedalboard with a few other effects cos I think some of the things it does are great. I don’t want to put all my eggs in 1 basket to find that the Pod was actually my perfect solution. Basically what I’m saying is “don’t rush into it”. Try and have a crossover period where you have the option of both the Boss GT6-B and another pedalboard made up from a few separate units. I think doing this will help you work out what you need from your effects, cos it’s helping me realise what I need at the moment. Hope that helps.[/quote] *Steals POD* Woop woop woop woop! If you do think about selling it, do give me a shout! Anyway, the GT-6b is bloody insane! My friend (a 'tarist) has had the GT-6 for a couple of years, and has only really just figured how to use it all! That's how huge the possibilities are!

Intrested in the Pod, any rough price? -
[quote name='budget bassist' post='395660' date='Jan 30 2009, 07:23 PM']I'll go like second or third or something? I'm currently reading hitch hikers guide (onto book 4 now) and guy pratt, my bass and other animals and i wouldn't want to keep you guys waiting ages[/quote] Once I've finished with it (shouldn't take too long, I'm a fairly fast reader) I'll post it to Wayne, seeing as BB is going with HG2G at the mo (awesome books there)

Well, I've decided to go down the route of a multi effects jobbie, as it's easier for me to lug to practice and back twice a week. So, time to get rid of the pedals and such. All have had light use, bar the Big Muff, which is a bit more used, but still goes fine. [b]Boss CEB-30 - [i]£35+Postage[/i][/b] Good solid Chorus pedal. usual Boss build quality [b]Digitech Synth Wah (not a Bass one) [i]£35+Postage[/i][/b] Bit mental this, probabaly due to it not being the BSW, when it's with me bass, it's either a rather odd sound or a good one. Good for a guitarist I suppose! [b]US Little Big Muff Pi [i]£35+Postage[/i][/b] Classic Fuzz here. A nice wide range of tones and the sustain control can go from a nice crunch to what I call "Uber Death Fuzz-Feedback" which is always good fun! [b]Korg Mini Kaoss Pad [i]£70+Postage (open to reasonable offers)[/i][/b] [b][u]SOLD PENDING[/u][/b] This is great fun, basically an X-Y touch pad controlled Effects Processor. Loads of filters and modulation effects. Flangers, Phasers, Delays, and it also has a capture and hold sampling ability. [b]Berhinger PB1000 Pedal Board [i]£45+Postage[/i][/b] Not the best board out there, but value for money wise, it's great. Space for 12 Boss sized stompboxes. Has 6 foam inserts with two holes each (one of the holes on one insert is cut to the size of the Big Muff) and comes with all the leads and stuff (daisy chain for PSU, patch leads) Original Boxes & Manuals for all (except the pedal board oviously) Cheers guys!

Mentioned this to my mate today, so he'll probabally be coming with me. 30 days (I think)

Went and got it from the DHL Centre today, so I've put my sticker on, and taken a photo. I must say I do like the colour; it's a translucentey purple, which I hadn't noticed in the other photo. Here it is with me old Squier, and yes, I need to tidy my room! -
Pah Dumelow, you stole 2 of mine! In 1 - 3 order: Chris Wolstenholme - Muse Timmy C - RATM, Audioslave Flea - RHCP

God, that's a nice colour! It'll be in Warwick in a couple of days, just in time for band practice! -
Bit of Muse at the mo, but as per usual iTunes is on shuffle, so last was No More Heroes by The Stranglers and next we have The Terminal by Pendulum
-
Feeling Good (Muse version) great tune!
-
If you make sure you know the bassline completely solidly, then just play it (along with the CD or whatever if necessary) and try to layer in the singing.

To put it slightly less bluntly, there's already a thread on this, with a fair few pages on it. I've already signed it, as have many people.
