[quote name='2004gdavi' timestamp='1397117580' post='2420723'] Well spotted that man fcgdaeb it is. Bit of a fat finger moment on hand held phone. Apologies but hope you get the drift. [/quote] NP Just doing my bored, on holiday, being a pedant best

[quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1397119190' post='2420752'] FFS, guys. There are only 12 of them (24 if you include relative minors). Can you remember an 11 digit telephone number? Of course you can (your own, if nothing else). The lyrics to Bohemian rhapsody contains 390 words. How many of us know them all? I bet most of us do. You just have to make learning them a priority for a short time (a day or two, a week at the most). [/quote] Yep - way simpler than learning to read English.

Precision bass. Maybe a jazz bass if you're listening to Verdine. As Samuel l Jackson said, "accept no substitute" , it's simple and it works. Mine is the best bass I've ever played anywhere, I keep trying to find a jazz bass that matches it

Surely FCGDAEB ?

The screens do seem to get tired after a couple of years (possibly just an iPad 1 issue) but ours has been pretty much fine, partner uses it all day for all sorts of things and it never misses a beat.

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1396962151' post='2419126'] Doesn't all depend on if you read music or not? If you're simply looking to find the root note and play from the heart n' soul using "the box" for the major scale, then I guess you don't need the keys. What you would then need is the circle of 5ths to know where to go to when you want to go up/down a key. [/quote] Yes - worked for me. I only started learning them after I started using circle of fifths to learn major scales in all keys. I'm in Disneyland right now and in the "be our guest" restaurant there is some sheet music. I was chuffed to spot the key signature straight away. If you see four flats you just count round the flats cycle till you get to the one with four. There's only 12 possibilities so it's not that hard to learn

[quote name='police squad' timestamp='1396534037' post='2414780'] can't beat that colour combo, but it's needs a black guard [/quote] There's a typo there - you typed black but actually intended to type "tort"

Known problem - even the mods can't do it Just change the title or update the description

I've seen that one a few times

[quote name='Green Alsatian' timestamp='1339619560' post='1691725'] Either works for me, but the scratchplate's the deciding factor: 60s style - Sunburst + Tort + Rosewood 70s style - Sunburst + Black + Maple I'd have both - flats on the Rosewood and rounds on the Maple. [/quote] Absolutely- I have just such a 70s style replica

thats awesome - i just [s]totally screwed up a cheap set[/s] made an innocent mistake by cutting wrongly on an A string. [size=5]Top tip[/size]

When I saw him on jools he was using a 51 P style bass

So no new music then ...

[quote name='Telebass' timestamp='1395906995' post='2407706'] UPS via interparcel. Very pleased with that service. [/quote] Yep Top service

[quote name='Chrismanbass' timestamp='1395854020' post='2407223'] i vaguely remember from another thread that parcel force specifically don't insure instruments not sure if i'm right but definitely worth checking as i doubt they would advertise that fact well [/quote] They do if you adhere exactly to their specifications

I believed its common to most hobbies. I used to think my camera was limiting me but now I know I don't use it's full capabilities , it's also true though that some cameras are easier to achieve good results from than others

I had a similar mention with a squier VMP Just brilliant

[quote name='sPiKi' timestamp='1395615041' post='2404475'] A road worn Fender of some description or heavy relic [/quote] Gah - beat me to it with generic fender - oriented content

Fender precision - quote old in some ways but still refreshingly new ?
