  1. Wasteland, the new album by Riverside. Real nice modern prog rock stuff
  2. I do like this track listing, but something in my brain gets sad when Disposition isn't followed by Reflection, and then Triad. That for me is the best closing to an album I've heard (and yeah there's Faaip afterwards, but I consider that the 'after credits scene' of the album)
  3. I have 5 of the things. My pair of 6 stringers which take up 90% of my attention My fiver which I really ought to play more often, it just feels so nice to play A cheap P-bass clone, my first bass, which I sometimes play but should probably depart with at some point And a double humbucker purple thing which currently has no strings on. My excuse is that if I stick some new p'ups in it, it'll sound sweet (in my mind, at least 😆), so I just call it my "project bass" when the S.O asks This seems to be the sweet spot for me, sufficient to deflect any bass GAS I've come across so far (doesn't help with pedal GAS though, I don't think anything could!)
  4. Technically a bass and drum jam, but most bass solos are really, so I think this counts. Saw them play a variety of this (Munich Jam) at Reading Fest last year, what a fricking great moment, Chris has some amazing chops when he gets the chance to just go for it
  5. Here's one! I'm big into a lot of metal bands, from the classics to modern stuff. Currently (finally!) listening my way through the less popular Metallica albums (some absolute gems on St Anger IMO) Your YouTube channels looks awesome, I'm definitely going to go through it all at some point Also: I've been eyeing Stash basses for a good long while, the price tag is monstrous but I mean, look at that thing! That is a statement
  6. Both Three Days Grace albums since Adam left. I really didn't want to be one of the annoying "it's different and therefore worse" crowd, but the songwriting has been so generic with Matt at the helm, I can't get through more than 2 songs in a sitting (although, their cover of You Don't Get Me High Anymore was well done, which goes to show the vocals aren't the problem) And I'm going to mirror the Jaco comments above, I've never really gotten into anything I've heard by him, and not through lack of trying. Same goes for the Beatles, don't think I'd sit through an album of theirs
  7. On my way to the Isle of Wight Festival for the day, should be a blast

      Excellent, have a great day.

      Ditto.

      Hope the weather's as good for you there as we're getting in the East Midlands.

  8. Very much a rock/metal guy usually, but I'm a big fan of Andrew Gouche
  9. Was just talking to the SO about this and she mentions product news / reviews could work really well in a podcast setting. We could have people talking about their New Bass/Amp/Pedal/etc Days, or new product lines that have been announced recently. Lots of fertile ground
  10. As a yoof myself, I'd much prefer an audio only podcast, something to listen to while getting uni work done, without a video to distract from said work. I think overall this is a really exciting idea 😀
  11. JoinMyBand has a pretty decently sized user base, as always drummers are in short supply but it's worth a shot
  12. Not sure about everyone else, but I'm not seeing pics 😦😢
  13. First thing that comes to mind is a Marcus Miller P7. P body, jazz neck, PJ pickups, plus active preamp. Easily found for under £500 new. Not sure about weight as I've not owned one, but should be fairly light (especially the alder models). Not sure about Squires/Fenders specifically, I'm sure others will though
  14. Reissuing that thing was probably the smartest move Digitech have made in a good while, loads of people have bought one! (I'm included in the ranks, naturally) And I agree, it's an idea powerhouse, so many cool sounds 😁
  15. About to go in for my last uni exam this year, eek! ☹️

  16. Wow, nice! I've heard the drums on the more recent albums are programmed, but he can play that stuff live and that's impressive
  17. Updated board! New additions are the Darkglass Alpha Omicron, Boss TU-3, and a midi channel selector for the bass whammy (I jump between quite a few of the settings, and the twiddleknob just isn't practical for that). I've said goodbye (for now) to my envelope filter and tremelo Current signal path is: Bass -> (passive DI box) -> tuner -> whammy -> flanger -> B3K overdrive -> Boss LS-2 (channel A -> Alpha Omicron, channel B -> Aftershock) -> Two Notes preamp (effects loop: send -> delay -> reverb -> return) -> amp
  18. Ever since their newest album came out I've been really digging TesseracT. There's some really cool bass playing in there, if prog/metal is your cup of tea. Right this moment I'm listening to Juno, which has a wicked bass line in the first verse
  19. I get the feeling your pedalboards are what pedal-phobes imagine whenever they hear anyone talking about pedals
  20. Done. Was gutted to read about what happened to you both, hopefully my contribution helps. I totally agree with the above, this place has some cracking people
  21. I'm only a bass guitarist myself, but I love and appreciate all things bass ...Apart from the left hand of a keyboard player.
  22. Sorry @Happy Jack, you missed one. There's a big cockup stood to your left, wielding a Strat, a harmonica, and the ability to play almost nothing, and yet still be playing too much
