For Sale: Squier Vintage Modified Jazz Bass
Rowbee replied to jonsparrow91's topic in Basses For Sale
I don't like undermining for sale threads, but I also have to agree that if you search online you can find them for around £220. That's not to say it's not a good bass, because I had one and it was great, it's just that I sold mine for £160, I believe. To be honest, I'd pay another £20 for brand new, just for the untouched pickguard and the fact that I have comeback with a retail outlet if there's something wrong with it. -

Euphonic Audio head/Aguilar cab LOWER PRICE!
Rowbee replied to ConnorHamilton's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Great price on the iAmp and if I was on the lookout for a head, I'd probably go back to one of these. I would be careful about using Parcelforce though, as if you check out their website, they offer very limited liability for lost or damaged goods and it would in no way cover the value of these items. -

Rowbee replied to JackLondon's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
[quote name='Prime_BASS' post='801373' date='Apr 9 2010, 11:22 PM']This is an amazing cab, got mine yesterday and played it full whack stuff went everywhere with how much air this thing moves. and weighs less than a average 13 year old!! cant believe iots not gone yet. If i had the cash i would take this myself for a huge 2x15 rig. good luck[/quote] I have two and have never been happier with my rig. I have to say though, that I very rarely need to gig with two because one is man enough for most situations. -

[quote name='Pete Academy' post='783042' date='Mar 23 2010, 07:12 AM']This might help: [url="http://www.911tabs.com/link/?4349421"]http://www.911tabs.com/link/?4349421[/url] Learn the root changes first, then put in the bits between the changes. Sounds like standard disco fodder to me.[/quote] Thanks Pete, I've pretty much got it now as I made a breakthrough last night. However, I'll still be checking it out the link. :-)

No-one? Repeated listening is getting me there but it's having the time as I was rehearsing with one band tonight and will be recording with another tomorrow night. I forsee some very late nights this week.

Does anyone have tab for this or perhaps just know the chords? I've been trying to work it out for an audition I have and it feels like my hearing has shut down as I just can't make out what is being played. Not only that, but it fair old races along too. All help will be gratefully received! :-)

I'm finding it really hard to focus on the instrument but I guess anyone would if they attempted consume what was behind it.

Norwood from Fishbone teaches you...

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='690192' date='Dec 20 2009, 09:46 PM']More importantly: Ex- Dead Kennedys drummer![/quote] This is true. To be honest, I hadn't got a clue who he was until I got back home and looked him up. -
Norwood from Fishbone teaches you...
Rowbee replied to thisnameistaken's topic in General Discussion
I met him in September as he and a band he was playing with were rehearsing at my friend's rehearsal studio in Santa Monica. He was playing with DH Peligro (ex-Chilis drummer) and Rocky from Suicidal Tendencies. They were all really nice guys and the music that was coming out of the room was great - the smell coming out was pretty potent too considering they'd been asked not to smoke in there! Apologies for the name dropping. -
I'd just like to agree with several others that this likely to be a one off situation and I am sure an amicable solution will be reached. I'd also like to share my experience of the two Compacts that I feel I was lucky enough to wrestle from the grasp of two other BC members. I have found them to be very, very robust and the lack of any real weight means that on a one-cab gig (which is often due to their output) I can walk from car to venue in one journey. I have not found them lacking in bottom end at all but neither am I noticing any mid-range scoop and although a different model to Rob's I would probably say it's the mids that I love the most about them. I have used them in a rock\metal band, a funk band and a ska band and coupled with my SA450 I have been able to produce the kind of tones needed for all of those styles with no problems.

[quote name='largo' post='682458' date='Dec 12 2009, 07:13 PM']Wow! Thanks Mark, that's a pretty detailed review. So have you done away with the Compact for the PC's then? I'm presuming a 4 ohm PC 212T would be more than adequate as a one cab solution, and save me 5kg on the Schroeder 410L that I have at the moment?[/quote] I was reading this thread knowing that Mark had just acquired two of these very handsome cabs (pun intended) thinking that I should point him to it when I found that he'd already given quite an extensive review. I was the person who gratefully relieved him of his Compact and I'm more than happy that now I have two they could probably handle any of my gigging situations. I have to say when advertising pays a big chunk of the upkeep of most of these publications these days, that they dare give a lukewarm or bad review of any gear.

It's still better than any UK bass mag I've ever read. I used to read Bassist too and it made me feel embarrassed to play what came across as clearly an idiot's instrument played in very simple fashion by the likes of Guigsy et al. Obviously Bass Player has to pander to their younger readers by interviewing the bassist from the current "big thing" rock bands but there are still enough decent articles. I admit that it's not as good as when Bill Leigh was editor but it's still easily the best out there.

Anyone have some recent back issues of Kerrang?
Rowbee replied to bassoctopus's topic in General Discussion
I don't have it either but l have a ton of them from the early to mid 90's - when it was still good (IMHO). -
I've just started playing with a reggae\ska band where it's clear to me the drummer hasn't a clue how to play those styles, so I totally feel your pain. I'm afraid my solution is going to be a him or me scenario though - perhaps you're not quite at that point yet.
