  5. [quote name='Doddy' post='967174' date='Sep 24 2010, 09:36 PM']Not really,because the things that you liked about it are still good whether they are standards or originals. Anyway..... Here is some classic Jeff Berlin [/quote]God, that is f***ng awful. Measured, tight with technique slop.
  6. [quote name='Badass' post='966975' date='Sep 24 2010, 05:53 PM'][/quote]Can I have that combo, please?
  7. Jah approved.
  8. [quote name='silddx' post='967023' date='Sep 24 2010, 06:47 PM']Ok, I listened to a selection of five of Jeffrey's numbers. I was actually pleasantly surprised for the most part. There are some genuinely pleasing sounding compositions, albeit with some standard jazz clichés - certain modulations and progressions, and one does form the opinion it's a vehicle for virtuoso bass and not much else. However, it does satisfy that male need for being amazed while watching The World's Strongest Man competition every new year. What makes me uncomfortable is the nadger-shrinking under-developed humour of the dedicated jazz musician. Cheeky call and response phrases that sound like the soundtrack to a Top Cat run-in with the local stray terrier, the awful song titles, the lonely-insurance-salesman-with-the-sad-smile cover. Then there is the bass tone, mostly it is over-chorused and typical of the genre, chosen for its clarity and nothing else. God only knows why the tone in "If I Were a Bell End" exists. It sounds like a very dodgy engineering mistake it is so distorted, I can't believe he approved that sound. Although some of the bass playing sounds like a drunken scat singer, I can't deny this guy makes some good music and some great ear-twisting bass runs. But it's really best for a live situation and a few stiff gins. In the home it feels like an unwelcome visit from a spider monkey during Sunday Tea.[/quote]I hear lemonade, or cheese in this reply.

  10. Gorgeous.
  11. EMG's are really good pickups.
  12. [quote name='wombatboter' post='962492' date='Sep 20 2010, 06:14 PM']I think it's obvious that the man suffers from severe pains somewhere (he doesn't seem to jump around a lot anymore). Apart from that I still love his voice and I don't understand the criticism, he still sings in tune and he can move me. A couple of million fans can't be wrong ? I would have expected some more compassion for his physical condition but instead people just put him down, I know a lot of singers who sing worse than him without the problems Phil Collins endures. The drummer of the band I'm in interviewed Phil and he explains about his injuries (from 2'35"), the introduction and some comments are in Dutch of course [url="http://www.een.be/programmas/de-rode-loper/drummers-onder-mekaar"]http://www.een.be/programmas/de-rode-loper...rs-onder-mekaar[/url][/quote] Great interview.
  13. I use to own EXACTLY the same set up when it first came out. Bump for back in the day fondness.
  14. Loved Mark Ronson, Bang Bang Bang is great.
  15. His grandmother use to pronounce Gary as Geddy, I think she was European Jewish.
  16. [quote name='bassface2k10' post='957615' date='Sep 15 2010, 07:54 PM']Love the bass in this, also the words are so on the ball [/quote]One of the greatest pieces of art ever.
  17. Tracey Pew meets PWEI. Welcome
  18. My bass is grace and the eagle will bring you much prosperity in my lifetime.
  19. Nice bit of kit right there, good price too.
  20. 8" speakers for bass guitar are about as useful as Michael Barrymore being a swimming attendant.
  21. [quote name='JustaBass' post='955640' date='Sep 14 2010, 01:54 AM']Wondered if anyone has noticed this on E*** Bay a mere £2,999.00 er! anyone we know [/quote] Wow, awesome, not.
  22. Hi there,the 300 combo will drive another 8 ohm cab, the speaker inside the combo will be 8 ohms. Look for a 4x10 or another 15" cab, rated at 8 ohms and enjoy the extra volume. More speakers = more volume. 2x 8 ohm cabs will take the full 300 watts of power out of the combos amp.
  23. Probably an old DiMarzio scratchplate. No idea of the value though.
  24. Hola. Nice amp.
