  1. I'm GASing for a Ric, or at least another Rockinbetter faker.
  2. Yup, tinnitus is for life, not just for Christmas. Like most, I started using earplugs too late, the damage was already done.
  3. Isn't it a B3 Ripper?
  4. ACS ER20S
  5. I keep toying with the idea of picking a cheap P/J and adding a neck pickup. Haven't found a likely candidate yet.
  6. After my last copy of Cubase LE went belly up after an OS upgrade, I had a good look at DAW packages around. Ended up buying a copy of Studio One Artist. Only used it a few times, but very impressed with it.
  7. Apologies Billy
  8. Chalk up another vote for Sennheiser HD's. I have an older pair of HD200's I bought years ago, and they're still going strong, and sounding great.
  9. You'll be a regular in EMS then. Last time I was in there, the bass dept. was a lot smaller than it used to be, but at least it had moved downstairs! Spent far too much money in there over the years.
  10. Knew there was a minor controversy over the song
  11. Didn't Dee Snider sue Trump about him using "We're Not Gonna Take It"?
  12. [quote name='ras52' timestamp='1481670958' post='3194274'] No I can't! [/quote] Should be: Kanye...? Naw, ahcaenae.
  13. Pictures please! Enjoy!
  14. Have a Tascam DR-05 for rehearsals, and a USB interface for home recording. Had a few portable studio recorders, the best was a Yamaha AW1600, superb piece of kit. Long gone now though.
  15. I do think his inauguration will rekindle the punk/angry/protest music, like Regan & Thatcher were great for the US & UK punk scene's.
  16. Wow, gorgeous bass
  17. [quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1481544547' post='3193058'] No British members of The Stray Cats, they're all American. [/quote] Always thought the bass player & drummer were Brits
  18. Early days for the current band, so other than playing bass, I seem to have acquired the role of 'coordinator', booking rehearsals & songwriting sessions. From here, who knows. Previous bands, I've been guitarist, singer, songwriter, sound engineer, studio engineer, mixer, producer, artist, coordinator, booking agent & roadie, not forgetting the 'good old days' of 'just' being the bassist.
  19. Stray Cats Thin Lizzy
  20. If you're not happy with it, get in touch with the shop & let them know you're not happy with it, if they're a shop that is good, they'll hopefully understand and try and come up with a solution. Personally, I like that it's not a "uniform" grain, adds a bit of personality to the bass and makes it stand out a bit.
  21. Swoon... Come with a case? How about postage?

    New Vs Used

    I'd say go with what you know. The Digitech may be good but you know that you achieved a good sound with the Boss. The Digitech may surprise you of course, and the Boss might not be as good as you recall, but it will also have a better residual price than the Digitech.
  23. Listen to what's being played, and how it's being played. Have fun.
  24. Geddy Geezer Lemmy Guy Pinhas Ron Holzner Youth and Raven Scott Reeder Phil Lynot This space subject to change without prior notice Ditto
  25. There are also things like the Zoom B1 & B3, the old PODxt, PODx3 & newer HD range (the xt & HD will need add on "expansion" packs), as well as pre-amp pedals like the SansAmp. IMO, a PJ bass would be ideal, especially if it has 2 volume knobs, as you can roll back the volume on the P pickup.
