  1. i used to play this in tehearsals many moons ago. The tricky part , was when the guitar solo finished.
  2. Hope he has a good soak! Saw him at shepherd bush a few years back. Truly awful! Eleanor rigby as an encore?? Tedium, pure tedium
  3. I plug my bass onto toneport ux1, which does work with logic/garageband etc. I have m audio oxygn keyboard, but mever thought about plugging the bass onto it. Only been recording a few weeks , despite owning the keyboard for yesrs
  4. Get the Drummer to carry it.
  5. Hofner Violuin basses...ugh Kramer Puke..I love headless basses but my friend's one felt horrible. Ow my hands! Hate the 'sting' Teles .. but love my mudthumper. Not keen on most sunburst basses
  6. Used to play Sabs to death years ago.There wasn't much metal around back in the day. I think vol 4 is a masterpiece. Masterof Reality, paranoid Sabbath Bloody Sabbath , 1st album, are must haves. Side 1 of Sabotage is probably the best of all imho. Couldn't stand them with Dio or anyone else,apart from the odd single. Zep for me were remarkable, but only for a few albums imho.And they're not metal Thankfully there are many more bands out there, so I rarely listen to the two bands mentioned these days.
  7. Olkay, I have 2 setups. One for ipad, one for mac mini. For the mac mini: Line 6 ux1 ( includes pod farm) Plugged into studio monitors. Loads of virtual amps. And cabs here. You can also use garageband. For ipad I use irig into either garageband or free GK App ( better than amplitube?) With either of these setups, it doesnt matter what bass i use . If , or should i say when line 6 do the podfarm/gearbox equivalent for ipad , i will get that too . In other words, i think you dont need another bass,)
  8. Everything has been said. However , you may want to get the seller extradited over here to face trial for selling shoddy goods,)
  9. Ch guitars do various parts
  10. Cool! Now the broken bones ,will soon be a distant memory,)
  11. [quote name='silddx' timestamp='1331806630' post='1579055'] I don't read it anymore. Ben seems to have great intentions, but sadly, it's not a quality mag really. Just seems like Metro for bassists, except I think there are way more typos and errors in BGM. [/quote] Exactly . Cant see the mag lasting much longer than 2 years or so.
  12. Looks alright, but i prefer my 77 telecaster
  13. Replied,and bump,)
  14. Interesting questions.) What bassis your favourite? How much stuff do you play other than EADG? What find with 5string, is that just by practicing "normal" songs in EADG , they can sometimes be played on the higher part of the neck without realising you are using the b string subtlety. I bought a 5string a few years back , and hadn't the confidence to gig with it. This was probably because only a couple of songs were alternate tuning. Some people play only a four, and have a spare for different tuning because they can't get on with a 5. Have you seen a teacher,or thought about doing so?
  15. What kind of GAS?Is this the Simon cowell one with the drop d? Times are hard right now, but you may want something I have,)
  16. looks like everything's been mentioned. OHM anybody? On a slight tangent, I would say that when jamming in the studio /playing live the amps always delivered IMHO . However , I think that the bass is much more defined now , over the last say 25 years on cd/ record etc. Having said that, I remember as a kid , loads of singles being played on an old dansett e and the bass was meaty and most dominant. (valves ?) Also some band members can't get their head around a tele bass. "too. wooly" etc. it is bass after all,,,
  17. I was playing in mostly 'birthday bands'ie, if it's me or one f my musician friends birthday we'll play a gig of covers. Well, we got together , and played a gig for the guvnor of the 'coach& horses in croxley green. We started off with plates falling from the windows(bass vibration). The crowd would not let us finish! 3 encores later, we run out of stuff. Then playing the riff to 'Big Spender' after the second playing of 'Nancy Boy'. The crowd loved us,and wouldn't let me or guitarist go. Awesome
  18. If you want to reassure buyer, you could send him the link to this thread . He will see that you are trying to do the right thing .
  19. Shame. 1st album was a masterpiece.
  20. [quote name='d4tux' timestamp='1330814919' post='1563468'] I went shopping today in Exeter with the intention of getting a new bass.. <snip> [/quote] Nice Basses. ,)
  21. [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1330686367' post='1561490'] Wall hangers for the basses? [/quote] I've got them in the spare room( now my brothers room,) cheers
