RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE

Boss odb3 ? (Get one cheap on here) there are so many compressors and boost pedals, you'd be surprised;) . There are loads of seperate pedals , from loads of different brands. You could even , buy a boss case , and have all3 that you require from boss. Over to other basschatters..

Could it be the jack ? Is it an active bass? If so, could it be the circuitry on that?

Glad you've found the sound. I remember,when I got my Aguilar head/cab the last amp I got before band split up.). There was a sound that just got me beaming. It held its own with 2 guitarists and a loud drummer, and was a very different sound from anything I'd gigged with. Long may it continue for you.

It's not quite guitar , not quite keyboard but very keyboard like in terms of features. I know it's app related . As mentioned above, it's very educational and would be good for schools etc.Woulc it be played in the dog and duck ?

Well, it's high tech ( for a toy IMHO ) . For me , it reminds me too much of Chad valley meets guitar hero.never had guitar hero, but could never get used to my friends. Just felt wrong. Interesting to see how well it does.

They look good, for someone like me who wants to do very basic recording. Please let me know if you have. Cheers

I'm at Brixton

Schecter diamond series. I used to have one Not very expensive. Shame they're not as common here as in the usa

Well said

That jack socket!!

We were at the same gig. I was in the balcony as well . One of the best gigs ever

I occasionally practice unplugged, on my washburn status! 10 mins turns into half hour ...

Try ch guitars ? They sell loads of spares

Thanx for heads up guys. I'm texting friend to see if they're up for it

Tool , scorpions ,rammstein again and rush again.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1425425668' post='2707358'] I don't know what you mean by this. Unless you are changing from a very low tension EADG set to a much high tension one for BEAD, then the B string is always lower tension than the G string it is replacing. [/quote] Yeah, I said it wrong what I meant was; apparently a lot of people either change the nut, or have it readjusted on the e part of the nut to fit a b string in. With the steinberger I have, there doesn't seem to be a need to do it , as the neck is very tense. There is a little looseness which didn't bother me.) Cheers

I'm thinking something slightly off the wall here . Have you got a loft? If so, I think ceiling speakers are the way to go. That is, if you can practice at the top room of the house. If you do consider this, do not plug your bass amp into them directly. You would need to use an interface ,which goes to your computer. The computer would have to go into your hifi . And guess what- the amp from your hifi is connected to your ceiling speakers. They don't cost much either, and sound good . It just means you have to reconfigure your sounds/ computer etc.

Always wanted one of those. Very handy for the commuter. Good for metal? who cares! Looks cool , especially with extn cab.
