  1. That green bass is cool ! Almost thinking of swapping my tele for it
  2. Yes! Absolutely no treble, just one big mudbucker pickup. Sounds great through my Aguilar setup. It depends what stuff it is you play. Some band members would call it 'too wooly" Or too muffled, especially with flatwounds.
  3. [quote name='NickH' post='1216833' date='May 1 2011, 08:01 PM']It's like the ole classic joke, What do you call a bassist with no girlfriend? ... Homeless[/quote] That's me, and bandless
  4. I've been out of a band since November. Don't miss it at the moment. Being in a band is like being in a job: Holidays, sickness, irritating people and moaning and groaning. Not always , but sometimes. Take a break for a while. You'll know when you're ready to start again .
  5. That track wasn't bad. Abit too long perhaps. Have a track by them on some metal comp. back in he early90's. Something about 3 little pigs or something. Liked that one .
  6. Was he in Molly Hatchett?
  7. Could try a Wasburn Status , but they're only 4 strings. Very Bright tho'
  8. Howdy! Went to Seattle for a week when grunge was out. Nice city.
  9. I too have 9 . The way I look at it is, I may not get back as much as I paid for most bought in my midlife crisis. Sometimes I look on here ,or fleabay to see if I could possibly swap one or two for' the one'. Nothing has caught my eye at the moment
  10. Most of the stuff that's on it these days is not for me. He seems set in trying to show too many diverse acts in a short time. (one minute it's Metallica-5 mins later it's Hugh Laurie) There's not much on the box regarding live music these days anyhow, so I guess it's something. Alot of the older programmes may be missed by some .The Tube? I hated that Muriel Gray woman sooo much! Okay , it depends on who you like, but I only remember ZZTop &Twisted Sister as being raw and outstanding. (Tho' I stand corrected) The word ? Saw someone drink their own vomit amongst other things-ugh! Remember L7 & Sepultura being good. Whistle test ? Yeah, alot of good stuff here, like UFO& Ted Nugent who I've never seen on TV since. ECT That was good. I've got a couple of the rock DVDs from the later with jh series. I liked The Hives,and At the Drive in. Last one I bothered watching was the one with Alice in Chains on. It would be nice if JH could have Rammstein, Satch ,Slayer and Rush on the same show. That'll never happen tho'.
  11. CH guitars do loads of bits 'n'bobs
  12. I do like the look of some Ibanez's. I thought at first glance it was£200.00, £2000.00? no way! That one looks horrible too.As mentioned above; you could get real high end quality with either an originalFender or or a custom job.
  13. Aguilar DB cab and AG head .
  14. Sparks 'This Town....' Fleetwood Mac 'Don't Stop' U F O ' Delilah'/'Boston Tea Party' Alex Harvey Band Lynyrd Skynyrd . I'll leave it there for now
  15. When I started to learn properly,I started to attempt 'pop/slap/tap etc. Bought a few sets of cheap Trace Elliot strings at a music fair , which went dull pretty quickly. My first 'proper' bass was a Washburn Status, so I was used to the bright twangy sound. I was under the impression that when you gigged , you should always play with new strings. Sometime later , I realised that I shouldn't change strings so often now ,and I leave them on as long as I can . I gave up the pop/slap also
  16. Bass effects units that are easy to use and program.
  17. I asked the same question as the o.p a couple of years ago.I think it was Musky who sent me the pic of an Aguilar DB112 . So, I got that and the Aguilar AG500 sc . I've not been gigging ,but it does look good especially with the Tele Bass.
  18. Had the same model. Shame not many people know about theses awesome combo's
  19. Yeah, they were awesome as expected. Seen 'em a few times now,and never disappoint. Doug only used the 12 string for one song tho'(pray for me).(not easy keeping that in tune) Looked like a Schecter Tele style bass for the rest of the set. Top gig
