What would he have improved by upgrading? btw, the holes were where the string mutes used to be.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1362508885' post='2000486'] All good, but flats don't [i]have[/i] to be thumpy and fat. They can be clanky, buzzy, boingy and toppy as well. [/quote] Amen.

[quote name='4 Strings' timestamp='1362503126' post='2000327'] And those who mix the bass drum to have depth charge type sounds regardless of the music type and so operating at the same frequencies. [/quote] That drives me NUTS.

The main enemy of flats is sound guys / producers who don't know how to mix 'em.

Rock, country, blues, folk, pop, acoustic, electric...

Hello Japcrappers! Any ideas what this is? It's a friend's. Sorry if one has been ID'd in the thread already, but it's a bit long to read through...

It's not as bad as people make out, I reckon. The soundtrack is tremendous.

He's fairly well established. I think he's spotted that the tide is beginning to turn, and he's going into self-preservation mode.

Agents are the worst thing to happen to the pub scene in living memory.

[quote name='leftyhook' timestamp='1362097948' post='1995926'] someone hit me around the head with a P bass that impresses me!! I want to be impressed but......:OL Had a decently playable Squier P/J, put some Dimarzio's on it....it was just loud and BOOMY!!! Awful. I want one ( Scott Divine does a great job of dangling the carrot) but yet to find love [/quote] A P/J ain't a P... A great P tone? Where to start... how about here, courtesy of Bob Babbitt?

This is all very interesting. I'm seriously considering selling my HS210s literally because I fancy a change, and the Baers were toward the top of my list along with a pair of Berg 12s or something Barefaced. it's silly really - the HS210s are probably as good as I'll get. GAS is a terrible thing.

He still hasn't responded to my email.

[quote name='Conan' timestamp='1362038739' post='1994719'] How 'bout I do the bass lines and you can handle the keys and vocals WoT? [/quote] Hmm... My karaoke party piece used to be Stayin' Alive in full falsetto, so you might be on to something there. As for keys, I can hear 'Chopsticks' over the instrumental in Tom Sawyer rather than the synth line Geddy plays. That would work....

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1362038738' post='1994718'] I'm guessing that's if you rotate them and haven't missed the obvious? [/quote] Yiiip... it's the cupboard under the stairs (for all you lurking burglars), so it's a narrow door...

Gah! I've just measured the door of the cupboard I keep my gear in - literally the ONLY place in the house safe from rampaging children - and the ML112s are 1/2" too wide to fit through. That's me out of the running

There's nowt worse than not passing an audition. The ones I've failed still hurt - one in particular and it was probably 20 years ago. Ha ha. Onwards and upwards, me dear!

I've just worked out who the OP is. I know her well - she's a fab player.
