  1. not usually! haha, well I usually need to know the song properly before I can read the tab, or even learn it by ear. I then at least try it out by ear, then tab it

  2. ah ok, cool I misread 'where you can try it out through the Matamp 2x12...no obligation to buy!' to mean you were selling the 2x12.

    hmmmmm, ooh I will have to think about this one!! So tempting! Though you are on the other side of england to me! I know what you mean about posting, though. - any idea what a courier would cost?

  3. I havn't, but I'd suggest that maybe your phone would be just as good. most phones have sound recorders built in, so you can just put it in the room next door (to avoid distortion) and hit record. It's what our band does and it seems to work for me.

  4. There's a great trick that kutless' bassist uses that's not quite as risky as the full 'bass swing'. Basically he kind of throws his bass to his left (in front of him) using his right hand against the back of the bass, and then (cos it's in some drop tuning) he then uses the same hand to kind of strum the strings at about the 12th fret, and to then catch it as it sings back down with the left hand and keeps on playing. It's quite impressive!!
