Psychedelic Rock,Folk Rock whatever you want to call it does nothing for me,this band epitomises that dislike.

I discovered Boom Radio about six months ago,very fitting as i am a Boomer myself with the same tastes as you by the sounds of it. The dial inj my car has never moved since.

I too can not stand this tune,Jefferson Airplane were garbage as well.

The Specials thought exactly the same back in late 1978.

?Nowt to do with Brexit then.😁

That is why they are called Stealers as opposed to Dealers,And i n experience are one of the worst players.

Wouldn't part with this for the world . Plays lovely ,Nice tone,Great Fingerboard rounded so makes it easier to rake the strings form the G string upwards. And all this for £399 Squid. And the Build quality is better than my Mex Fender which is £300 more . You just can't go wrong with these for the price.

Snapped string after swapping: what did I do wrong?
Mickyk replied to chyc's topic in General Discussion
I also do this mainly because after a while i get bored with the tone so i change them and that's maybe every couple of Months.never had one break tough. What i do is when i first fit them i pre stretch them just by pulling up each String in the middle and giving it a bit of a tug. I do though remember Breaking a string when i was tuning a Bass up or Miss tuning a Bass up. -
My Nemesis is Sir Duke by Stevie Blunder a I like to call him simply because when I try to play it I always make a Blunder. My other Nemesis is PEG by Steely D,I will never get that Slap Piece off if i live to be 90.

Anyone used them. https://attakpik.com/?fbc_id=120201833501790497&fbclid=IwAR0Hl3K2U_jNAlss_RMLSGWmOAnCVG9Lj6A3QTn7I4q-OJvVRTCNh46d9IM&h_ad_id=120201833501810497

Killing me Softly by Roberta Flack what a performance an enormous hit back in 1972,but the Fugees version or any other version come to that just does not do it for me.it's Great because it's just that Great .
-
Same here sadly.
-
Black Friday deals are a Misnomer,should be Black Friday Rip offs
-
Any of the padded Neoprene 3 inch wide Bass Straps are the best,tried all the rest.
-
Agreed that four finger per fret thing is for the Purists. IMO
-
I'm the opposite.
-
Yes i'm long sighted but the funny thing is according to the optician i am only long sighted from about two feet away from the fretboard.Recently i have been struggling to see the Fretboard. So Compensating for that i have been playing by Muscle Memory,my playing is suffering i think. So i am thinking of trying Contacts and was wondering if anyone else has this problem ,or is it only me.Not the worse thing in the world to happen i know but it is starting to annoy me now.Or should i just concede that i'm an old git now and carry on regardless.
-
Does anyone wear Contact whilst playing,but wears normal Glasses when not. I wear Glasses when i'm playing all the time,but i'm thinking of contacts when playing in the band Anyone?
-
Thank you i will have a Look.
-
Great thank you for posting,some good info here.I have just purchased this, https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08VR8YCYT?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details,hopefully this will do the business ,just not sure what programme to use it with.I have just downloaded the Reaper DAW. I could do with a step by step video of how to do this as i'm not that techy .

When some BCers say they're not much cop at bass.....
Mickyk replied to Barking Spiders's topic in General Discussion
I have three Bass Guitars ATM ,A Yamaha BB424x,a Sire V4 Marcus Miller Jazz with a Roasted neck in that lovely Green Colour(the best by far) and A Fender Mex P with Fender 1963 vintage p/ups and i can honestly say that most players would Play and sound better with all of these than I will ever will do.
