There's no reason why this couldn't be done easily enough with a couple of MYSQL tables and a tiny bit of PHP or python to do the lifting into your webpage , sounds like a nice little project for you to get learning in , M/y advice to you is to get the database populated as some tables first. I would start planning out the database , Its been long old time since I've done this and this can be tricky for someone who isn't used to dealing with normal form , which the database will need to be in to deal with your search's to work properly . Here's a quick starting point for your data design * lunch break* i'm sure someone far better with UML than I will come around to say that's utter bollocks but that should allow you to search for matches between bodies and necks .

while i want to say the Hiscox , i love mine ( a status re branded one) but on the flight its probably got to the actual Flight case , I'd also make sure that you've got the proper insurance in place because imagine what could happen >.<

As someone born and bred in west London , It used to have a reasonable scene when i nas growing up ( 90's through to about 01) the area has taken a bit of a downturn since then , places like Ealing , Hounslow and Isleworth used to have some decent ( I use the term loosely ) music pubs such as the Rifleman , there was even a decent enough metal club . Many of these have now closed and two I mention are now a Lebanese restaurant and a polish expat pub . I'd say that the more more south you go basically anywhere at an below Twickenham / Richmond the music scene gets better . Not sure why there is such a decide but I have a crackpot theory.

Just as you could play to a drum machine in time and doing no fills , you can play to bass player who's just sticking to the roots , playing on beat and doing not passing notes whatsoever .... That's the value you are bringing to the songs filling out the sound tying the beat of of the drums to the tune of the song .. you are the glue ... hand a pure guitar player a bass to find they have no understanding of note length and how you play that note to meet the feel . I'm being forced to sing more in my outfit after i made the mistake of getting drunk and holdiung a tune at karaoke . I maintain that i cant play the bass and sing a lead part at the same time ... so the keys player strapped on my tbird and tried to play all been done before ..... CUE some truly awful on time but boring and soulless following of the guitar .... the song felt stodgey and had no jump . As as for move's like jagger we play that and i pushed myself from the original to this version , ( it starts out as is should then the guy goes for it) whip that out instead of them roots and there's a big difference. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqyXMXRyD5g Sounds like next gig you should not drive to ... just arrive with your bass and a DI , play half the set then get drunk ... so they truely see what they sound like without " bass"

Fender MIM P ?

Dunno , they are "rare ish " and there arent really a lot of pedals that do what they do but i dont think there worth 200 quid Saying that if some kind of speculator wants to buy my Akai Unibass or part ex it for a nice P bass and some cash they are very welcome, its pretty mint but absolutely no use for the sound i've developed :-D Im more " motown and blues than distorted power band .... My 15 year old self would be so disappointed.

I've got these they are cheap , easy to fit and work a charm .... plus they dont put any stress on the necks as they are held via the strap buttons .. http://www.woodieshanger.com/ [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/synthaside/media/IMG_20141228_1342431_zps151bcf2a.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v293/synthaside/IMG_20141228_1342431_zps151bcf2a.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Hiscox branded status case with a rucksack for cables and Zoom b3 ;-) well reccomended

While i don't understand "laptop operatives" i think there is possibly a parallel bar to the dad rock crap covers band or even the monkeys. The fact is that there are good and bad covers bands, there is skill in mixing stuff and doing it live but the same way you or I would never pre-record a set and press play then jump around with our bass not plugged in miming , a real DJ or real artist's performing crossover music is always worth seeing . It may be not your taste, but for me some pendulum is the best way to illustrate .... these are people who do DJ sets and the the rare occurrence they will play it live after all they wrote it / put it together ;-).

I've been doing this on the cheap our drummer has a vert fancy electric kit and is able to trigger samples by hitting the rims of his drum's ones currently a cowbell but im assured he can loud whatever sound we need. One of our cheesy wedding onboards is teenage dirtbag by wheatus, So i cut out the strange scratching sample from the front of the song Mp3 , in the long term I will be giving it to him to load onto his electric kit but at rehearsals's he is using a studio kit. So in the meantime our vocalist is triggering it from this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.soundtrigger&hl=en_GB on his phone which is connected via 1.5 jack to our mixer :-) .... the freeware is limited to 4 triggers in a list but if your getting on with it then the limit is removable for a small fee .

Discreet is sounds like you need a Bright red or green T-bird mines the best thing for hiding behind in the world For me its small "modern" shaped bodies .. ala Ibanez or Warwick and I fully expect to be stoned for this comment the post 51 P bass shape Love the sound HATE the look give me a slab any day. My perfect bass looks like this but sounds nothing like it after trying one in wunjo's it was like a Musicman on helium

Wish i'd have known there were bass-chatters in Twickenham might have motivated me to make a the short trip

You might end up prepared for the wrong version ;-) i'd prepare some dirty synth sound just in case https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujcgcvOD_wc I'll get me coat :-P

I had a go on one of these in espon guitar guitar , Loved the look .... sound was REALLLLL BRIGHT, too much for my taste the bass played well but just felt too small for my Giant paws

White no-name Ebay china special ( 60 quid delivered ) [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v293/synthaside/IMG_20141014_1911101_zps3c08f259.jpg[/IMG][ Jazz pickups , pots and loom from a Squire Vintage modified Jazz , acquired from a bass gear trading Facebook group , for 25 quid posted Black Jazz bass knobs off amazon which sadly weren't fitted when i took the picture , it plays really nicely way out of its price league for a sub 100 quid bass , I think the set of flats on it must be half the value of the thing oddly its one of the few jazz necks i really really love. its fast and glossy without being sticky.

The Olp mm5 ive got Is a 16.5 m spacing , but my status vintage P 4 is standard P dimensions ... so i dont think thats true for all status basses .

I found the best way to really understand the MS60B was to think of the 4 outer buttons as a joystick for moving around .... left and right for the different effects in the chain and up and down to cycle your sound .... Try to stick amp sims on the far right so you set up a " Sound" then move on to embellishing / shaping it yourself , stomp once to turn it on stomp once to turn it off then click left or right to queue a different one , then save it as a name. For me in live use i think of the device as a way of setting up your sounds before playing, With the manual in hand for stuff like saving ;-) and then having the unit in Chain mode for using when i'm playing , which i can stomps to move on to the next in the chain. my setups are > A > B > C clean tone > Dirty drive tone > clean tone

You don't really need a business account for this , any old joint account is fine the mrs and I when we first moved in wanted to keep our finances separate yet open a totally different account at a new bank to handle "expenses" . we both pay a standing order in once a month which covers everything we need the bank clerk is just trying to do his best to up sell you. My suggestion would be one of these , in a joint flavor. https://www.metrobankonline.co.uk/Personal/Bank-Accounts/CurrentAccounts/

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1438163151' post='2832124'] Won't they get dusty? [/quote] They all get treated fairly ... I have to pick one from the wall when i practice ... usually on a day rotation .... not to sure about my latest 5 string i think i'm a 4 kinda guy. The only exception you count the B*s*ard stepchild Aria CAT which lives in a case under the sofa :-P and while not being a bad player is of greater sentimental value than financial worth selling but i've outgrown.

My better half talked me into to putting them up on the walls ... and now there's no hope . The home office / place she would rather hang out will be wallpapered in basses :-P

My better half and I have quite different music tastes I like a bit of everything as long as its technically interesting and well produced , Rock , prog, metal; Soul Funk blues ETC. My other half is only interested in Black metal , death metal , grindcore , Folk metal and Mathcore . She has actually threatended to hurt me when i've been practicing crowded house :-P for the covers gig.

Pretty sure once the bug bites she'll want a mike Lull Tbird ;-) specifically to beat the naysayers with post gig ;-)

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=3]I have two practice setups at home , one for when the better half is out and one when shes not ;-)[/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][color=#404040][size=3]My old Behringer ULTRABASS BX1200 essentially a very loud knock off [/size][size=3]Hartke[/size][size=3] kickback , [/size][/color][/font][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][color=#404040][size=3]This multipurpose beast , its been used as everything from a kickback monitor to my Jam night amp as the Trace lives in our rehearsal studio's storage unit , these things are worth every penny that they go for on ebay ;-) [/size][/color][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][color=#404040][size=3]My second setup is for use at my PC , my zoom B3 straight into PC via USB then into a nice set of can's for silent [/size][size=3]practice[/size][size=3] / working on tones for songs ;-)[/size][/color][/font]

I see this as a larger issue with the way people are seeing and use ebay , as a marketplace for businesses to have cheap / free web stores rather than private sales and it results in two different types of seller on Ebay. I have different levels of patience with them both, and i can see both sides of this story. [b][i]hypothetical example - names invented for obvious reasons[/i][/b] I'm browsing ebay for a nice jazz ( don't try n flog me a jazz I've got a very nice one thank you) If I buy something on ebay from Mrjones1234 who is selling rather nice 90's fender jazz , its on bids with a respectable , Buy it now price , and a nice discription saying he's selling his old faithful jazz because for his 30th anniversary his wife , friends and loved ones club bed together to buy him a 65 Jazz . I expect to give him all the time in the world to ship my item to me , the postage charges are realistic ( lets say £17 quid shipped in hard case) [b] this is a private sale[/b] , he is using ebay to market his product and he has lots of good feedback most of it as a buyer he cant run straight down to the post office and ship it to me he has a job commitments etc. 2nd case The jazz is being sold buy DEALZMUZAK they have a BIN and a make me an offer the advert is quite obviously a store or professional ebay retailer someone. This is someone who does this for a living or as a real money maker on the side. The listing is obviously one of many they may have multiples available or you can tell from there other items , that they sell lots of stuff and its a money making venture. This kind of seller is running a [b]business[/b] I expect to treat them identically to the way iI would treat buying from any other music store online, The postage and packaging charge they are charging is usually also much higher / not that reasonavle as they are looking to have a cheaper item than all the rest and sideloading profit on the delivery costs.

I'll take the ones cut for a Tbird :-) PM inc
