RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE

Really nice guy, and a top Basschatter! Need I say more ?

Over the weekend, I recorded two tracks on soundcloud . This got me thinking , as 1 of those tracks had no bass guitar at all . So, although I have 9 , maybe a few of those should go. I haven't gigged since 2010. Ones I will keep; Washburn status, dean cabby in lovely yellow;) jack Daniels bass. Rest I'm not sure about . For example, I could sell the schecter 5 string and tune another one BEAD instead. Fret less? I don't know . As for effects; maybe I'm better off just using podfarm . Amp; although I love the Aguilar setup maybe a small markbass or gallien k. May be better incase I do a one off gig . Decisions decisions

The Drummers car is best

Podfarm is also good

I enjoyed that. Must confess I don't know who richey Edwards is. Can't remember the band mark e smith was in. I saw a programme about him on the off chance , and must say he is one of the most tuneless and boring people I have ever seen. Half an hour wasted from my life . Back to the thread;)

Sure I mentioned teen spirit and Hawaii 5 o already. Haven't mentions captain scarlet tho'

Found out a bit more about my turntable. It's an LPT (little pink thing). There is a cover called mitchell unicover. But it only covers the arm and platter. That costs £55 approx. I may wait till I see one on ebay. Thank goodness for the web, which wasn't around when I purchased this

I nearly forgot..Help,it's the Hair Bear Bunch! Soebody please post you tube clip.

I cannot believe there are you tube vids of eastenders on this thread! medical help is needed there

Thorogood rocks! Have fun

[quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1371909632' post='2119453'] Native American indians can seriously rock. Listen to Blackfoot...the rythym section are both full breed Sioux indians. Greg T walker is a superb bassist. Proof; http://youtu.be/h42F9gHnFf0 [/quote] That was good

Sorry but, it's like having teeth removed . I gave this 1.5 mins. Strangely enough yhe intro was near what I'm after. Thanks tho' Bilbo

[quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1371913476' post='2119533'] This is the music i meditate to.......... http://youtu.be/c1oYR5dkU5k [/quote] WTF?? You need help

I know all about Blackfoot . Gnreat band in the '80s. Saw 'em eventually at knebworth . Love some of the witty comments on here also. What have I started ?

Okay, we can all think of guitar riff inros where you instantly recognise a song( smoke on the water/ teen spirit etc.) Can anybody do the same with Drum intros? TV themes included obviously. I have thought of three ; eastenders /Hawai 5. O/ Reign In Blood. Anymore out there ?

Mmm, looks very much like a diy job. (A hohner body &an encore neck). Encore are cheap(but good) basses on their own . Maybe your best bet is to advertise as a swap for something on Basschat

I gave it 2 mins or so , but not my thing. Thanks anyway
