Very nice indeed.

For me, its very much a corner of the living room under the iron beams. Bass on a stand in front of the mini rig. Everything else is in cases and bags ready to go to rehearsal or a gig. Chair next to the rig. Simple and easy.

First gig on bass on two years... Massive random nerves fail :-/

[quote name='gafbass02' timestamp='1356235003' post='1908269'] nailed it :-) [/quote] Hurray! -
Just sold my Orange Terror Bass 500 to Karl. A pleasure to deal with. Good communication, very quick and easy. Highly recommended.
-
Now sold. Thanks everyone. Contribution to BC on its way. -
Pretty good. Pretty sure my amp is now sold. Now all I have to do is decide what to replace it with. Hmm mb500? LmII? MiBass? Decisions decisions

ha! he's a braver man than me. Looks like he's having a good time.

Hi Everyone, Wow, thanks for all your interest and PMs. I'm pretty sure I've replied to everyone but if I've missed you I'm sorry, just been a little inundated. On hold now.
-
Ok all PMs are now replied to. Thanks for your interest but still available. Would consider trading for a small, powerful amp head (Gallien Krueger, LittleMark, TC electronics etc)

Lovely feeling to be happy with what we've got.

Great rehearsal and writing session last night. Made me happy. Now for lyrics
-
yep love that part of the evening. Nerves, bit of chat, maybe a cheeky pint. Seeing the audience come in. Great.

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1354737221' post='1889894'] none of us are irreplaceable. [/quote] Sad but true to an extent. Having said that, I'd say that some bands wouldn't have produced the songs they have with different members so I guess it depends on how much the player contributes to songwriting.

[quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1354695753' post='1889136'] The busiest venues are booked solid through to 2014. [/quote] I don't know if this is possible for you but I've got in with venues in the past by offering the band as a short notice fill in for when other bands cancel on them.
-
Personally I have most success with local venues and promoters where I know the booker personally or at least a name and a face. Get down to as many gigs as possible and get chatting to the booker/organiser. Then they know your face and that you're "part of the scene". Works for me. Seems like you're aiming for non-local venues though. No advice on this I'm afraid so I'll be watching this thread with interest.
-
If you can't get on then that's it really isn't it? On the other hand it seems a shame to have spent 3 years on the band and then quit after 1 gig. Maybe talk to the other members and let them know where you stand? Best of luck with whatever you decide.

[quote name='BurritoBass' timestamp='1354133789' post='1882609'] The Orange SP210 for me & I regularly get soundmen commenting on how good it is.[/quote] Same here. A surprising amount of volume in a little, lightish, portable box. Probably wouldn't buy one brand new though as they're pretty expensive. They pop up on here second hand sometimes. -
[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1354004127' post='1880591'] I`d say Duff McKagans sound is quite good for this: [/quote] Thanks very much.

sorry to ask a potentially stupid question but this "typical GK sound" people are referring to? Can anyone recommend some recordings where I can hear really strong examples of it?
