Cheers boys and girls

[quote name='gjones' timestamp='1495828244' post='3306965'] Top of my list would probably be one of the new Fender Rumbles. They are cheap, loud and very light. I'm sure you could get a 500 watt one for £350 secondhand. I played through the 100 watt version and it kept up with a drumkit pretty well. I'm sure there are many satisfied Rumble owners on Basschat, who will agree. [/quote] I agree. I tested my 100w Rumble at home on half volume and it was far too loud for my hearing. I don't gig so can't comment whether it would keep up with rest of band.

Based in Kent.I got back into bass playing 6 years ago after a 17 year break. I like classic metal and rock music favourite being Iron Maiden. Grew up listening to other bands such as Metallica, Anthrax , Nirvana ,AC DC and some 80' rock and pop. List is not exhaustive though. Also like Foo Fighters, Rancid, RATM but sometimes listen to Police, Queen and other big names. I play finger style but opened to play with a pick if need be. I don't slap but can a few riffs. I record, mix and master my own songs therefore I play guitar too. Own my own equipment and transport. My bass cab is only 100w but if things turn out to be feasible I am capable of getting gigging bass gear. My only downside is that I work shifts so get 2 weekends off back to back every 4th week. Lastly I'm in my early 40s and not bad looking 😁 Looking forward to hearing from anyone who's interested. My you tube link https://youtu.be/aS5zCMrmBIY I've got my own material and wouldn't want to be stuck playing covers only.

[quote name='dood' timestamp='1496060068' post='3308437'] Yes! Tate! Exactly what I was thinking!! Bang on Are you planning to expand on the theme? Add more sections etc? [/quote] The nuclear explosion and post apocalyptic effects were purely for the challenge aspect.I'd leave the accoustic intro and add a riff or two, depending on the lyrics (unwrittem). I just have this idea of forming my own band and gig. It's a hard business to be in.

[quote name='dood' timestamp='1496059575' post='3308426'] I'd put it in the 'Power Rock' category rather than metal. There's some rock influences in there for sure. Early Def Leppard, a bit of Harris-esque bass and atmosphere from Malmsteen. I can just hear some high pitched soaring vocals in there and you'll be set. [/quote] I'm thinking Geoff Tate and Mike Patton. I know Def Leppard but don't lusten to them. Thank you for your opinion really appreciate it. Hoping to get more views on the song.

https://soundcloud.com/user-527099495/inverse-evolution-master-bcjazz I composed this song for April composition challange but can't decide what metal category it suits? Any metal enthusiastic could shed their opinions on this? Thanks

[quote name='bazztard' timestamp='1495984468' post='3307911'] good luck I thank the universe that I played in bands, otherwise my life would have been for nothing [/quote] I sense a tiny bit of sarcasm there☺

A like minded guitar player replied that's all. Off to see Maiden 😆

Already had a reply

Hiwatt bass amp?

Decided to join a band. Posted my ad so see if anyone responds.

Iron Maiden on Sunday. Two more sleeps😊

Members with controlling girlfriends

I'll have Fender Rumble 100. Loud and light.

Mike bought a Fender high mass bridge of me. Prompt payment and excellent communication. Highly recommended.

I am desperate to play in a band but also work shifts.

Hello

Vx410 cab sold out😯 i hesitated. Thomamn sells them for £222

[quote name='bazztard' timestamp='1495381739' post='3303348'] post a thread asking if it's ok to use a 115 and 410s it's the same as asking them why they pack guns with their basses lol [/quote] I see. Cultural differences. https://youtu.be/qBmwUTjAYes

[quote name='Cuzzie' timestamp='1495382311' post='3303353'] What all the guys said above. I had a LH1000, power for days, lovely amp, remember 'flat' EQ is bass and treble on 3 and mid on 10 and work from there to get what you want [/quote] Cheers for that

[quote name='hiram.k.hackenbacker' timestamp='1495375616' post='3303302'] I'm not quite sure what point you are trying to make [/quote] They are a bit out of tune
