[quote name='frankyex' timestamp='1395496506' post='2403058'] just in case mate...you still not sold your 8string CH guitar??i open for swaps too... [/quote] Gosh, I forgot about it tbh. I haven't bumped the sale for a while ,as things are not so bleak as when I first put it up for sale. If you lived nearer , I would have met up with you and you could have said yes or no. I don't really want to sell it unless it's some one nearer. Hope you understand . Have a bump in the meantime .

Twisted sister and Celtic frost ..
RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE replied to RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE's topic in General Discussion
Should've clarified in my original post(did it on a train). Imho TS were great , until the come out and play album. Saw them acoupleof times and they were great live. Dee is a brilliant frontman. One of my friends hates them . "It's for 15 year olds .." As for celtic frost; nobody seems to mention them on here. Saw them acoupleof of times . The most dry ice (frost I guess) , at their gig at the hammy o. Didn't get them at first, but grew to love them. . Mind you, the guitar solos are all from the Les Dawson school of soloing. Btw; the Dee Snider book is a grea t read. The TomGWarrior book 'Are you morbid' is brilliant. Both say alot about the breaks in the music industry ( or lack of) ,amongst other things. -
Were they really that bad? Just had a beer with friends. A bit lazy on my behalf because they obviously don't go together ....

[quote name='Platypus' timestamp='1395248236' post='2400215'] Was that close to having a sandwich on Denmark street on Monday - though wondered across the road to Ray's Jazz cafe (in Foyles bookshop) and had a panini there. Cost me more that £2.99 though. [/quote] What's it like in there? Do they play jazz? Can you get peanut butter on toast , or a toasted bacon sandwich ?

Great thread. Awesome job

Thanks for the input guys. Thanks for the offer stick man . I may pay you a visit one day;) I think it's something that I couldn't play live in a pb, as I have too much nervous energy and would feel more nervous playing this instrument than a bass. It is a great instrument for home use obviously. One of the clips above, reminded me of stu hamms playing style on Linus and Lucy at the start. It looks like a tough instrument to learn . Maybe one day, I will go for it

Update; big thanks to Happy Jack! He loaned me his fishman for a week .(very nice of him to do so, and a top bloke). Before I took it away, jack gave me a demo. As soon as I heard it , I loved it . He did advise me that the distortion was not much to write home about, (or pretty average). He also advised me that performance varies depending on the type of bass you have. So, I took it home and used 3 basses with it. The deeper and thud dire the bass, the better the sound. On my washburn status (which was made passive), it was okay. True, the distortion was fairly light on its own. When mixed with the octavers, it sounded much better. Similar on my vester fretless , active bass. However, on my '77 Telebass it was great. I got lots of studio sounding geezer butler and dug pinnick. If I had to keep distortion off, then the lower octave is the most fitting for live situations and tight sounding. With the distortion on , and the lower octave it was best of all. The upper octave sound was a little weak imho. Prefer it with amp ,instead of studio monitors. Would I get one? Tbh, as I have overdrive /distortion already, I would say no, and would try the digitech bass whammy,which ha been on my mind for sometime.
