    IIRC isn't this also a problem with ampegs? Practically every sound guy I've worked with hates em lol.

    As someone who likes to stick with tens I'm just throwing this out there... while on paper and with the science a 410 paired with a 410 is the way to go, surely it's [i]percieved[/i] tone that's the issue here? I do get confused by this sometimes, the common consensus seems to be to not mix speaker sizes, yet some of the biggest names and my favourite bassists do it (Nathan Watts springs to mind) and generate an incredible tone.

    I saw it about a month after I started playing bass, and stuck with it since . I self taught but after watching videos on it more recently people seem to go for the index - middle - ring order of picking? Does everyone here do that? I always always always without fail do the opposite, and find it much easier. As for why I do it, I dunno, it feels more natural. It's so ingrained into how I play I will automatically just start with my ring finger now. Anyhoo, players who use it - Troy Sanders from Mastodon definitely throws a third in for faster passages. I also believe the Unearth bassist uses three, as does the Black Dahlia Murder bassist. Alex Webster (legend!) of Cannibal Corpse fame does as well I think. Also Dream Theater's John Myung too.

    [quote name='Bigwan' post='691393' date='Dec 22 2009, 12:06 PM']Confused... Is this still for sale? If so how much?[/quote] Heya, sorry should have been more clear. This is not for sale anymore - the bass I was going to fund by selling this has gone. As a result I'm now only looking for trades . Thanks! Ash

    Oh yes sorry one mod - the fretboard was restoned last year.

    Hello, Thought I'd give an update - the bass this was going to be replaced with has gone. Therefore I'm holding on for the time being. Thanks for interest, might ressurect this for a straight sale if something catches my eye . I'm still open to trade offers. Will post pics in morning! Ash x

    Are you interested in Ampeg gear?
  12. ashevans09
    even though I'm not a big fan of rosewood boards, aesthetically that's the best p bass colour/pickguard/fretboard combo you can get. Absolutely lovely

    *grabs popcorn* Shockwave?
  14. ashevans09
    Make one yourself?

    I always thought one of these would be great for a warm up:

    tbh i think it sounds best with the stock pick up and EMG pre: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D45OMeDlALA&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D45OMeDlALA...feature=related[/url]

    [quote name='Lylodile' post='689661' date='Dec 20 2009, 12:21 PM']Maybe that was just the one you tried? The action of my fleabass is spot on, i've never noticed any fret issues and I love the sound. And the looks are of course down to taste.[/quote] You're fighting a losing battle here mate never played one so can't comment on anything, but are you planning any mods to it? There are some videos knocking around here of a frenchman playing one with an EMG preamp (I think) in it and it sounds awesome . I'm sure someone will link it.

    and furthermore I love my 400+ too

    Also it's faaaaaar too expensive and overpriced in the UK. Like the Mesa Boogie of spirits
  22. ashevans09
    Love me some meister . Pity most people just associate it with the jagerbombs though. Anyhoo. I want that bass. Now.
  23. ashevans09
    tbh i like both incarnations of his sig bass . Also reckon he's a vastly underrated bassist and producer but that's another can of worms...

    [quote name='Happy Jack' post='687478' date='Dec 17 2009, 04:41 PM']That's the 2-string, right? [/quote] Ba-dum tish! I have to admit that one took me a while...

    Some amazing advice, I can't really add much to it but the greatest gift my bass teacher gave me was learning how to do everything by ear. He started at day one and it is a great skill to have, so might be worth incorporating somewhere? Maybe trying to get your student to pick out simple riffs himself then help him when he gets stuck? This is also a good opportunity to get some theory in too, cos you can say "oh it goes up a 5th there" etc. Just my 2 cents
