[quote name='Jase' post='366955' date='Dec 31 2008, 11:35 AM']What's the neck profile like on it, I'm hoping the 414, 614 or the 714bs has a chunky-ish feel?[/quote] not as baseball 'battish' as the attitude but fairly chunky! billy described it as a sort of pj hybrid, thin and fast but I have no idea what he was thinking on that! its not thin about p in size but fairly chunky front to back - its 42mm at the nut - it is though fast!

I have one of these: [url="http://uk.yamaha.com/en/products/musical_instruments/guitars_basses/el_basses/bb714bs_lava_red/"]http://uk.yamaha.com/en/products/musical_i...714bs_lava_red/[/url] and, I'm very impressed! andy

hmmm, I don't believe it! looking closely at the neck in particular, 1. I would have expected the binding to have aged with the body, ivroy not persil nor daz white. 2. why the extra holes in the heel? 3. if you look closely enough you will see an indented ridge along the bottom of the heel, where it joins the body and is visible, this makes me think it came off another bass with a very tight pocket join! andy

Although, having said this, I'm a woman, and therefore they're probably just trying to get in my pants.[/quote] lol! well think of it this way, if the person is fanciable...then you're onto a winner on both levels!! andy

from memory: bases - 4 out, 1 in Amps - 0 Cabs - 4 in, 3 out effects - 2 in equipment: Bass yamaha trb 5 series 1 yamaha attitude ltd mk1 yamaha attitude ltd mk2 yamaha bb714 bs Guitars Gibson SG Amps Ampeg svt 3 pro trace elliot v4 marshall jcm 900 marshall mg15 stack Cabs ampeg svt 410e classic - for sale ampeg b410hlf effects behringer vamp in 6u rack ashdown james lomenzo hyperdrive will probably sell the effects stuff - offers if interested. if money allows and trade ins are acceptable....I will most likely want: yamaha attitude mk3 ampeg svt 4pro close to affording an svt 810e. andy

after thirty years...I'm still playing! money or ego trips dont interest me - I am simply playing for enjoyment, be that for personal (practice) or along with the band. andy

tamiflu!

^^ lmao! so in essence...jaco types are show offs, arrogant, annoying and huffy? sounds about right!

[quote name='Prosebass' post='359850' date='Dec 20 2008, 08:22 PM']Would you apply this logic to everything in life ? if so we should all be driving round in new cars , living in new houses and playing new basses ? In my book there is not better out there so why should I move on just because these guys are old / dead. I view them in the same way as I would Bach or Mendelssohn, both are dead but one I still enjoy listening to.[/quote] I think if we take what ARGH is saying in context, we should develop and better our own ideas and techniques without looking to the past or becoming clones of what went before. Individuality is very important, become all you can be...I tried very hard for a long while there to play like billy sheehan - hopeless it was! I now know who I am, what my sound, style and technique is, it is me! Not technically brilliant nor ground breaking, could get much better but developing me is more fun. andy

it's all a bit marmite! ARGH - that was some reply! you studying law? name and telephone number please...

^^ superb!

[quote name='ARGH' post='359375' date='Dec 20 2008, 04:18 AM']Metal Its the genre you Jazzers fear,because it out improvises you,and the musicians are stronger,and far far more innovative,both in note choice and equipment. And best of all.......WE AINT SMUG ABOUT IT AND CHICKS LIKE US!!![/quote] lol! this still does it for me: does anyone have the tab for this or know where to get it?

[quote name='Geddys nose' post='356281' date='Dec 16 2008, 07:05 PM']I've had Sunn's,Ampeg's,Mesa's (All Tube's) and a V6 and the V6 was the sweetest one to my ears without a doubt, but I do like KT66 a lot anyway it is the tube of choice for bass IMO.[/quote] I'm sure its kt88's but could be wrong! however, have to agree the v6 is the sweetest most nicest one out of the three, the v8 is boutique but...mine the v4 is a roaring in your face monster!!!

Nice bass though - actually tell her it was in the sales and you saved hundreds. Women understand that logic. [/quote] yep agree with that! however tell her it was buy one get one free they really go for that! andy
