Can't stand it. 

I know what you mean, it's probably the reason British Lion pulled out of the tour as a supporting band

there's some lovely sounds!

 

 

 

 

That is going straight on my GAS list!

What's the setting sound called between 00:53 and 01:00?

Laptop a second hand midi key and a software modo bass , ez keys and others as above. I'd suggest browsing you tube to see what suits you.

Depending on your budget, I'd look at either a Novation Bass Station 2, or a Moog Subsequent 25/37.  They are both excellent synths for playing bass.

I don't find the novation bass station 2 versitile.

It's a software you download on your PC, then you can use PC keyboard but a midi keyboard is a better option about £50 for a new one.

My IK multimedia came with modo bass. It is very versatile. Has range of basses, selection of playing techniques, pick, finger style , slap. String selection including fresh and old string m you can move around the position big pick ups. Have a look in You Tube and see what you think.

It's all in technique, this reminds me some myths such as , you can't play metal with a Start or Tele...

Looks like they'd been well suited for metal?

It's all in the fingers! 

Wonder how many metal bands will sued for using words, death, devil, god, nightmare, war,evil, rage....

Love and hate, wish you were here.

Hang on , there are songs too!

Ozzy Osbourne- Shot in the Dark 

John Mayer- Shot in the Dark 

AC DC- Shot in the Dark

Within Temptation- Shot in the Dark 

Bought a Jackson dinky guitar. The locking mechanism had a faulty screw. I called them to which they suggested to get a new screw.

But the issue was with the thread in the nut not the screw. They were reluctant to accept return.

Not sure they’d be any good for metal.

They'd make the bass sound Megadead

Always reminded me of a young Scott Ian (rhythm guitar and part-time white walker/zombie for Anthrax). 
 

I do hope it isn’t.

Looks more like Joey Belladonna

At least she uses toothpaste 🤭

Can you slap with it?

Hello fam

 

Has anyone bought anything on eBay from Japan? I love old Ibanez Roadstars and there are loads on there. I’m just scared to pull the trigger. 
Cheers! 
Sam

Yep, I fancy one of them, would be interested to learn more. I played roadstar in early 90s . I remember how thick the neck was, almost like the Steve Harris Royal blue p bass. Steve played during number of the beast era , I think.

I played in various bands over 20 years ago, and if there was the slightest hint as the OP described I'd walk from it, and I did once.

I think it depends on what bass guitar strings you use. And I am not trying to be a smarty pants.

Flats, mostly

Cheers all. Very detailed advice , had a look at the chart and ring the shop at one point. I don't think I need to worry about making a hole etc. As i've learnt to play sensibly, as long as  I achieve the that classic rock and metal sound. To be fair I managed to almost master the tuning and already getting a decent sound from the cheap heads.

I've picked up a 5 piece used Tornado drum kit I'm May. Since then I replaced and added Sabian cymbals and added an additional unbranded 18 inch floor tom 😁

I play drums in average 45- 60 mins a week. I've learnt to play with less force and more dynamics Although the skins are playable I need to replace them. I've played with resos on/off and now they are back on. I only want top skins replaced. I read the black doted Remo have good reviews but it's all personal preference / style etc. I am planning to record rock and metal. Any suggestions for. A lower/ mod range price. Ideally a set bundle.

"'snap' deals also provide consumers with up to 50% Off on other items including electric pianos, keyboards, drum kits and professional audio."

Yep, aware it's for pianos. Unfortunately what I need is out of stock. Then the power supply for pedal board is half price with the European power plug whilst the British power plug is full price. The choice of items are limited as well. 

Nice one. Is the 30%the biggest discount?

Jim responded to my wanted ad and sent me a footswitch pedal free of charge. Only paid for postage. What a great BC. Thanks

I bought MXR flanger pedal from Nigel, promptly posted , great communication and quick delivery. No flanging about.
