RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE

Surf green .. Or red

There is an original whammy on eBay at the mo'. £200starting price . Been on sale for a while, but price reduced. Think i"ll wait for this one . Difficult tho'

Cool !

Have 8 basses (was9 until last year). My jd bass is by the fireplace, next to a buottle of jd. My Telebass is in a roksak gigbag. My washburn status is in the bedroom leaning against the glass shelving unit in my bedroom. The rest are in a warwick rack which I hate. Previously , before my brother invaded my spare room ( was/is a music room), I had 2 basses on the wall and the rest below. The hooks are still in the wall , and when he moves out approx 2 years time, I will have a different setup.

[quote name='Dr.Dave' timestamp='1392143731' post='2365310'] One word - acceptance. How many gigs have I played I wonder? Well over a thousand. In how many did I not make a mistake. Not a one. Happily, my experience has taught me how to deal with them and that's the best we can do. My band mates are the same - we carry on like nothing happened. Will the punters know ?? Well - they will if you react to your mistakes like you just saw a ghost. Otherwise they're never the sharpest tools in the box and probably won't know. Plus there's always the old trick of repeating the mistake on purpose in the next verse - that's jazzzzzzzzzz ! [/quote] How are ya doin Dave ? Missed your wit over the last few months

You're the big yin . You sort him out . Interesting ; the big yin vs les Dawson

Bargain

In my last band, we had mr. Guitar, who had a nice sound. He used to blah certain solos from the original.(covers band). His main problem was that he was using a boss multi effects unit. This meant that he had to keep,fiddling with it each session until he got it right. Took ages. He was nearly fired, but got the sound right at the last minute. He hadn't been in a band for ages before that. We think he used us as a stepping stone for his next project tbh. Now if he had single pedals....

They seem expensive. I think it's like 2 handed tapping, but permanent. Obviously more involved than that. I think that it's bass strings and guitar strings combined(but seperate) . How hard is the transition from bass? Anything else I need to know?

If you have no bands, you could end up like some of us playing with ourselves . It's therapeutic ,as there are no tantrums to deal with. Sleepless nights do happen occasionally . Best of luck with what you do .

Looks a bit like a pea bass. Wonder if they do it in brown ..don't think they could give it away now

Nice bass

If you had a fretless, and wanted a fretted, I could have given you a different angle. You could have fitted frets from 12th fret onwards. Then you have the best of both worlds. However, everyone above has given the same advice I'd give now .

Here you are Vester Done on ipad, so small. Sorry

Err , umm, I forgot about this . Pics in the next couple of days . You have been warned

Thanks for that . Got a cheapi mixer on here. I tried it last week . I put one end into mixer , and other end into my gk combo . Just sodding about at home recording bits on GarageBand

Yeah, they were cheap for years. I'lm trying to resist ..

[quote name='Musky' timestamp='1391626090' post='2359435'] I found the Apple keyboard ate batteries, and took to pulling them when it wasn't in use. I don't think the batteries in the mouse went but after 3 changes on the keyboard I reverted back to the wired versions. [/quote] Aha, maybe that's it. Tbh, I never turn off either keyboard or mouse. It's not too much of a problem ,as it is basically new. Sounds like I'll have to change batteries soon, then get in the habit of switching them off .
