Great version LFDH http://youtu.be/DvWvzRHDYg8

We play a couple of their hits. We play mainly Disco..... I see them as a Soul/Disco type band..... but I really don't know much of their back catalogue

Can I just say..... Mark King or Flea......

I think it's more to do with the nature of Slapped notes. If you listen to a fingered (ooer) note compared to a slapped note..... the fingered note generally has more body to it. It's more of a perceived drop in volume rather than a lack of volume. If you think about it, it's a similar note produced by that of a piano.... a hammered note which has a perception of having less body than a fingered note.

I've played with Blunders a fair bit (ooer), monster player.....

Not sure if you've seen this yet...... Last few lines are very funny http://youtu.be/cNqfKDQrBrA

I had that before but it was only during working hours.

better than being compared to Carol Kaye in the looks department ;o)

My next project is a tribute...... Arse Wind & Fire.....

FFS.... honestly.... and people think one direction are dire........

The other thing you have to remember is that in the PA world..... Amps (and outboard in general) are a standard 19" unit.......

Citroen Picasso (the wives) allows me to remove the seats and turn it into a van...... can get a 4kw PA and 2 x 2x12" cabs, Lights, Desk, Monitors, cable bags and Bass & Amp....

We do a similar thing..... not strictly tribute as such but we sell ourselves as a tribute to the genre...... it seems to work though I guess the material is a lot more acceptable than say a Dr Feelgood act....

Wireless system?

Just ordered the new Allen and Heath Qu - 16.... Ipad control on this too.... quite nice for sorting the mix when I'm setting up on my own

I think a lot of it comes down to individual playability of an instrument....... I've played cheap basses that are fantastic (mostly Corts), I've played expensive basses that are horrendous (mostly Fender).... the mid priced market are fairly good and manufacturing these days is fairly consistant

I think Wayne is just a bit Jealous ;o)

Have you played one for any length of Time Marcus? Only suits the chosen few ;0) I've owned Three now and won't use anything else....

Well they are not ignoring them as they still supply Squire and all their distributed brands to Village.....

Here's what we use ) http://youtu.be/2PWsOeKHMNw

[quote name='Tinman' timestamp='1366301452' post='2050803'] Unfair how? I was just quoting what I was told by someone who knows a lot more than I. [/quote] We could all quote statements that are no way true.... As mentioned, Fender have changed their business model and it doesn't sit with certain retailers. Shure and Sennheiser have just done something similar which has shed a lot of their customer base as they do not fit with business model. Just because you are a large MI retailer, it does't necessarily mean you will fit a manufacturer/distribution model criteria.

Tinman..... very unfair....... I believe it's more to do with business model than anything else.

Mike Whats your budget? The Force series is now obsolete so think about that when buying a rig

I bet Bernie is kicking himself now...
