  1. not forgetting the drummer neil conti who was so much in the pocket on the sprout stuff..
  2. a hard one but if pressed mid 70s to mid 80s...
  3. if its the one im thinking of it looked just like a cassidy but it was a gibson.
  4. i have gone through ebony quite easily with rounds, never tried ebonol but i am a big fan of the phenolic fingerboard, seems hard to even mark much less to wear down and great for fretless.
  5. the most useful subscription model i have seen is one that has the option of being just one month or a permanent rollover.
  6. i was wondering about the bass on this one ..i suspected it had a synth involved a bit like imaginations illusion ...but the web says its bailey himself on bass guitar, i love the phat sound of that bass. When i saw them live in the 80s i recall it was a wal.
  7. i think this could be the coolest one...its basically a never changing repeat pattern ...
  8. i think the bass playing on the track flesh and blood is pretty darn in the pocket ... i did have to check the dates to see if karn was ripping him off but quiet life was released the previous year so i guess not.
  9. if you stop playing at high volume and don't deaden the strings then it can start to feedback but its not unusable... but there are a lot of variables going on here with room acoustics etc.
  10. which is exactly what i just said... nobody can choose what they really think and believe and nobody should be punished for thoughts inside their head .. but what people can choose to do is keep it to themselves, alcohol and drugs wont help in that regard.
  11. to be fair he was totally trashed when he let rip so having certain opinions which nobody can help and then allowing them to escape into the public domain is what it is all about ...and as a result he now donates heavily to charities in recompense.
  12. an obsessive compulsion to produce art has been linked to mental disorder, so we shouldn't be at all surprised that many of the great artists have made some questionable choices within their personal lives ...it's an occupational hazard, comes with the territory. Personally i think art is its own entity ...it exists independently of who created it.
  13. maybe when slapping or the high transients from some effects like a distortion pedal? but yeah for me personally i doubt i would miss tweeters although my ebs combo has them loaded.
  14. i wonder what bass is going to replace this one being sold??
  15. that "40th" logo between the frets is a deal breaker for me...well that and the price of course....other than that take my money now!!
  16. if the show must go on then just use super glue ...if it wears off just put more ...no harm since super glue is originally developed as liquid skin for medical purposes...used it for cuts and wounds including blisters from bass strings loads of times.
  17. i occasionally use one to convert my drop d standard up to a shortscale standard.
  18. if you are still on a journey for that ultimate fretless you ought to put status graphite on that audition list.
  19. roger was kind enough to sell me this slice of the future ...
  20. i think scooping out the boomy lows but retaining that sub grunt ...i have a multi band parametric that's great for dialling that in.
