  1. @MNY it’s a trope around here, a running joke that new members are often young metal fans and don’t know Much about equipment hence they ask the question “is it …” forgot to say it’s a handsome bass btw
  2. I’m not sure they’re always that simple, have a listen to Love comes tumbling
  3. It’s not that accurate … the real thing has a jazz bass neck with logo
  4. Is it, erm, just wondering … any good for metal? 🤔
  5. Agree. I managed to get a p bass close to that look
  6. Like him or loathe him, he’s the reason that I started playing bass. I admit he’s not Michael man ring but it is “in the pocket, in time” bass which is what most people expect to hear
  7. Tc electronic bh250: aux in headphone out 250w if you connect a cab Toneprint app its tiny
  8. That didn’t show @BassAgent i speak German, French and small bits of other languages such as Czech, Irish and italian It’s a brave thing to venture your language skills outside your comfort zone, I’ve had to do that myself and I know how it feels I worked with this German lady, married to an Englishman with English speaking kids, working as a translator and she regularly made major mistakes it really isn’t easy and as speakers of a weltsprach, we lose sight of it
  9. We were bursting out of dovecotes …. Not 😛
  10. Dovecotes ? I played this bass and it was awesome
  11. View this through the lens of someone who natively speaks another language and you will realise how weird and alarmingly contextual English is. It’s a really hard language to master we have a huge advantage in learning it as children
  12. Tc electronic bh250 has headphone socket and aux in. Ridiculously loud when connected to a cab 👍
  13. Just chill, given that it is arguable whether jk is jamiroquai or merely a member, and so therefore your prior use of “is” or “are” depends on your point of view. To leverage the Turing test, if you can exchange messages with someone who speaks your native language as well as you do, they have truly arrived in linguistic competency
  14. To be fair, it’s really hard to tell that from reading your output. Your few mistakes are ones that English native speakers from some regions also make I have IELTS grade 9 and I notice things like that
  15. Is it, dare one ask, any good for metal ?
  16. Stick it on Facebook, or contact @Len_derby his charity may be able to use it
  17. Holy tuck I wish I didn’t already own an acoustic bass
  18. Doesn’t he say he does that already ? perhaps I misunderstood
  19. I would have thought that the best approach was both. Learning by ear to survive real life and also notation / theory to learn things that you cannot directly listen to, and to communicate with others
  20. It was somewhat tongue in cheek
  21. It’s something about my particular physiognomy. He was right
