  1. [quote name='Maude' timestamp='1473447106' post='3130385'] Yeah I got that as well. [/quote] Me too. I'm sensing a theme [size=4] [/size]
  2. Time to dust off my favorite drummer joke: What did the drummer get on his IQ test? Saliva.
  3. [quote name='NickD' timestamp='1473449578' post='3130415'] I might have to be a tentative for this now. My re-re-rescheduled surgery is now scheduled for this coming Monday (I almost got out of it again with the doctors strike though), and I'm not supposed to drive for 2 weeks afterwards. It's going to be a cracking day, and if I'm anywhere close to capable I'll be there. [/quote] There are people from that London going. Maybe you could cadge a lift?
  4. [quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1473446493' post='3130379'] J J Burnel, loved the tone on the early Stranglers stuff but can't imagine using it on anything else other than Stranglers covers. [/quote] Similar to Lemmy. Astounding bass sound, but useless unless you are playing Motorhead covers.
  5. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1473336405' post='3129224'] He's not wrong, y'know, and the same applies to bassists, too (as, indeed, to all musicians...). Technique for technique's sake is very rarely what's required. Who was it said 'Less is more.'..? Wise words, usually. [/quote] but then you get Keith Moon.
  6. [quote name='phil.c60' timestamp='1473330977' post='3129117'] Similarly MacDaddy at the last Sussex bass bash I went to., I think the only lefties were me and Sylvia! And I think I know what she'd say...."Warwick"! [/quote] Doh!
  7. [quote name='phil.c60' timestamp='1473314390' post='3128901'] Having sold my Jazz bass because I decided it was not really me, I now only have one bass - a Hot Rod Precision - which I gig regularly. Only having one bass makes me slightly nervous! I prefer a P Bass (which is not the point, we've done this before....) so my choice is between an older bass maybe from the 90's or a brand spanking new one (American Standard). I have looked at the competition, but I'm a Fender kind of guy. Even if that makes me dull, that's how it is. What would you do? [/quote] If you are able to get to a Bassbash, there are usually plenty of P's for you to try and P owners to enthuse about their P's. If you are anywhere near the South East, the SE Bassbash is soon...
  8. [quote name='LiamPodmore' timestamp='1473325290' post='3129031'] At that price it's hard to say no. [/quote] which is why i didn't!
  9. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1473244676' post='3128245'] [url="http://s1128.photobucket.com/user/h4ppyjack/media/Basses%20CURRENT/General%20View%202_zpsuchn2ciz.jpg.html"][/url] [/quote] That's just showing off
  10. here you go, 2 quid inc p&p. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/291456-clip-on-tuner-bargain-heads-up-l2/page__fromsearch__1
  11. The bass one, has the settings examples for the bass. Mine (bought new) came with the guitar instructions. Here you go, post #21 to download the bass manual http://basschat.co.uk/topic/285745-behringer-bd121-good-deal-heads-up/page__hl__bd121
  12. Bootsy Collins. Gotta love Bootsy baby, but ain't got no use for a Mu-Tron myself.
  13. the 8th Jack Reacher on audiobook.
  14. [quote name='bagsieblue' timestamp='1473158675' post='3127431'] Haha - yes, ...yes, we are!! [/quote]
  15. Coming in your ears?
  16. [quote name='solo4652' timestamp='1473090450' post='3126803'] I don't know whether we're allowed to stay late. We always leave by 11 o'clock, since we hire the room 7 - 11. [/quote] in which case i reckon it's implicit you have free reign. Lock up when you are done type thing.
  17. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1473087602' post='3126759'] I've just realised that, technically speaking, and in a thoroughly pedantic sort of way, I should have ticked the "Up to 10,000 people" range. Up to 10,000 must, by definition, include any number less than 10,000. [/quote] Poll edited due to Happy Jack's pedantry
  18. are they letting you rehearse beyond the hours you are paying for?
  19. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4YgVuAnnFQ[/media]
  20. [quote name='MacDaddy' timestamp='1473074133' post='3126536'] Either just the size of the audience you have directly played to... ... in person [/quote] the audience persons, not yours!
  21. [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1473074013' post='3126532'] Headlined or been part of..? [/quote] Either just the size of the audience you have directly played to... [quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1473074033' post='3126533'] Are we counting televised performances? [/quote] ... in person
  22. [quote name='molan' timestamp='1473073676' post='3126525'] Can't fault my one [/quote] [quote name='nightsun' timestamp='1473073671' post='3126524'] nothing wrong with it as far as I can see. Hangs well, plays great, superb neck and sound. [/quote] You got the good ones then!
  23. For me about 800 during an outdoor battle of the bands final many years ago.
  24. [quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1472735887' post='3123766'] I had an iAmp 800 (and an iAmp 500 before that) and they weren't tiny. Sure it wasn't the iAmp Micro? That's a bit narrower and shallower (but higher) than the Tecamp Puma. [/quote] Doh! You're correct, it was the[size=4] Euphonic Audio iamp Micro 550w, I was thinking of. [/size] [size=4]Size: 2.1"H x 8.5"W x 5.4"D. It went for[/size] £360 insured courier included.
