  2. [quote name='bassicinstinct' post='1274810' date='Jun 19 2011, 03:11 PM']Totally stunning.[/quote] Sorry, I'm totally slutting Kit's material around at the moment Glad you like it though
  3. [quote name='bubinga5' post='1231832' date='May 15 2011, 12:10 PM']Pickups without doubt...[/quote] Would you elaborate Bubs? The East would give the owner infinitely more bang for bucks than new pups.

  5. [quote name='Bankai' post='1273993' date='Jun 18 2011, 06:27 PM']After a few interviews I've been offered a trial position at the brand new GuitarGuitar shop in Epsom. I'll be working there tomorrow (Sunday) in the bass section (Yes we have a bass section!) For those of you who haven't dropped in yet, then this may well be the perfect opportunity! The store has got extensive stock (over 1000 guitars), good prices, and a bc'er as staff! We've got most brands on display and ready for trying out; lakland, suhr, rickys, fender, aguilar, orange and more. We're also giving free sets of guitar strings to anyone who comes through the door. Drop me a PM if you're planning on coming by and I'll keep a look out for you. We're doing 3 for 2 on boss pedals as well if that takes your fancy Hope to see you there![/quote] Congratulations mate
  6. [quote name='blamelouis' post='1273990' date='Jun 18 2011, 06:26 PM']So his name is Nigel then ? [/quote] That is correct. Nigel Clusterf*** or something.
  7. Interesting this. I had a dead G about six weeks ago. Emailed them and they haven't got back yet. [quote name='JTUK' post='1273590' date='Jun 18 2011, 11:27 AM']Interesting... I used DR's faithfully for nigh on 20 years and was very happy with them. I'd get quite a few cleans out of them as well..which helps when you are in for nigh on £40 per pack. Since I changed basses..and peg config..I needed a new set or sets..and decided to see what else was out there I'd had a duff pack of DR ..not one string, which I NEVER had all that time before, but a whole pack. I favour Tapered B's so that cut my choices down..I also like no silk winds as that just gets messing when cleaning them... I would like to stick with DR's but they aren't cheap. Best, I have had recently have been XL pro steels..although a tad bass heavy in sound, but they stay the same sounding for a decent while. DR are livelier initially but you notice the degrade more than XL pros.... Ken Smith are good and reasonable money so I'll buy more of them and La bella Super steps are my faves at the moment but I have only ahd the one set. It would be a shanme to write off DR strings but there latest batches have been iffy.. and causing me to look elsewhere. I definitely think something has changed in the steel that these winders use..and I am pretty sure that winders make strings for all sorts of brands..correct me if I am too wide of the makr here... so I would welcome a source that supplies a lot of string in a lot of gauges. I need this 40-125 with a T B str. I can go for La Bellas Super Steps at Thomann for the best price EVEN with £10 post but I end up shopping around to get the sets I want..if I deviate from brands. So if anyone knows who does a tapered B in 125 or less..then let me know. I would try Warwicks as I hear good things but most websites on strings aren't forthcoming on this.. hence why I use D'addario, DR and Ken Smith ..so far. Am thinking about using U.S sites for a bulk buy.[/quote]
  8. [quote name='risingson' post='1273921' date='Jun 18 2011, 05:17 PM']Fixed, possible idea for a future epitaph [/quote] brilliant!
  9. [quote name='Johnston' post='1273225' date='Jun 17 2011, 09:25 PM']What about this one !!!! [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTYJj4RPxgY&feature=feedu"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTYJj4RPxgY&feature=feedu[/url][/quote] I see a bottle of Dunlop 65 Lemon Oil on the table (well I had to look [i]somewhere[/i] didn't I). I wonder what he uses it for. Those panties can't be easy to get into.
  10. [quote name='wateroftyne' post='1258124' date='Jun 6 2011, 10:10 AM']I use a Zoom H2. It's champion...[/quote] +1 Great bit of kit.
  11. I have actually pissed myself on stage through nerves. Long time ago.
  12. RUSH article?!!
  13. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='1272975' date='Jun 17 2011, 05:19 PM']Probably why Shuker basses are so reasonable.[/quote] And these [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=112080&st=0"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=112080&st=0[/url]
  14. Ahh, something at last! Promo clips though.
  15. Double facepalm. I simply can not find a single thing where he's play normally with other musicians. He says he also likes to play reggae.
  16. [quote name='KevB' post='1272681' date='Jun 17 2011, 01:09 PM']Apparently has been a member of Dare (Darren Wharton's band) but not clear from wiki entry which album, if any, Nigel C played on.

  17. [quote name='Conan' post='1271127' date='Jun 16 2011, 10:27 AM']Well that would just be stupid wouldn't it? Pecorino Romano is your man for nail-insertion related handiwork. Everybody knows that. [/quote] You're quite correct, the rind is much firmer isn't it.
  18. Absolutely brilliant! Can you elaborate on the signal chain mate?
  19. [quote name='4000' post='1270976' date='Jun 16 2011, 08:11 AM']+1 on the judgemental thing.[/quote] Crikey. We can get a bit earnest on here can't we. Although many of us detest the nail gun stuff, no-one has slagged off the man himself, have we? Loosen up a bit. We are ALL judgemental about most things and other people and ourselves. If we weren't we would be pretty useless human beings. We have to make judgements all the time, or we will probably die. Anyway, any idiot drummer can knock out percussive 32nd note triplets in time all day, just because it is done on a bass does not make it clever or compelling, it's just a circus act. Interesting once or twice, after that, you never want to see it again, unless you have personal problems To knock a nail into a piece of wood, I would choose a hammer, but if I chose a piece of parmiggiano would you want to watch it on youtube more than once? Would you say it was amazing? Tell all your friends to watch it? 'Like' it? "He knocked a nail with some cheese!! AHMAAAAZIN!". If you would do that, I would certainly judge [i]you [/i]in some way
  20. Diane is completely supportive. She has an incredible attendance record and understands that I can't really hold much of a conversation before stage time. She gets me drinks, hangs out with my bands and is close friends with almost all of them. She is an absolute star. Pete, you deserve so much better than what you describe. Cast her away. Wait for someone who loves you for what you are, it will happen after a time.

  22. [quote name='KevB' post='1270188' date='Jun 15 2011, 02:53 PM']I'm sure that has a lot to do with it, someone has already pointed out that he's been in professional gigging bands with recording contracts. I doubt what he's doing in that vid has as much as 1% crossover to his style of playing in a band capacity yet we're all quick of the mark with a slagging. He's at a demo looking to attract attention for his employers and that's about it. I guess we can discuss whether that style is going to atract people or drive them away but to extrapolate this vid to his whole universe as a player seems a bit much. Maybe he's just saying 'Look at the stick these Rotosounds can take' for all we know. [/quote] Oh I see! I thought all he could do was the 'rhythmsync'. So he plays 'normal' as well then, like fingerpicking and that?
  23. [quote name='skankdelvar' post='1270157' date='Jun 15 2011, 02:30 PM'][b]It's not Mr Clutterbuck's fault that succeeding generations of numpty punters, clueless exhibitors and - yes - goggle-eyed fanboys have decided that the mark of bass greatness is to attack the instrument in a way entirely inimical to its function, voice and range. It is upon [i]them [/i]that we must turn the shell-fire of our opprobrium.[/b] His customers demand slap and [b]Mr C[/b] does what he he has to do to put food on the table. That is justification enough. And it is entirely possible to abhor a practise without vilifying the practitioner, but that leap would seem to be as far beyond the average BC-er as slap is beyond my competence.[/quote] You say that, and then you call him 'Mr C'. That is rather hypocritical don't you think?
  24. Here is over 5 minutes of it! He makes funny faces too. [i]"Nigel uses a technique he calls Rhythmsync where he confesses, notes are an optional extra!" [/i] Rhythmsync Hear the total div in the background "Fahhahakin ell! Ahmazinh, Wahhh, brilliant!". I know what [i]he [/i]does in the evening.
