  1. That's not bassy enough for me
  2. [quote name='Clarky' post='777371' date='Mar 17 2010, 01:37 PM']You mean too old to remember the notes? [/quote] I do like that one I'll second whoever it was who said tell to f*** off.
  3. [quote name='BurritoBass' post='777839' date='Mar 17 2010, 07:19 PM']Some bands / tabs will list stuff as C, F & G when the tuning is tuned down half a step so you'll be playing B, E and F# when playing along with the recording.[/quote] What arses these people are. I'm a theory numpty but it does take a genius to work out that if you detune you're playing different notes.
  4. Welcome aboard, join in and have some fun.

    G'day

    Good day to you.
  6. [quote name='Golchen' post='776669' date='Mar 16 2010, 08:31 PM']I don't know anyone who can make a bass look more phallic![/quote] He's going to give himself a whole host of problems playing like that. Very poor technique
  7. [quote name='jimmyb625' post='776603' date='Mar 16 2010, 07:10 PM']Guess I'd better be off now.... [/quote] Although some of them are quite tasty
  8. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='776571' date='Mar 16 2010, 06:50 PM']The Googlewack one.[/quote] Boll0cks should have put one of these in , as a reference to his search for all those other Dave Gormans. Your job is: Personal Security for Famous People OR Celeb Pap Photo Journalist
  9. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='776541' date='Mar 16 2010, 06:31 PM']Dave Gorman sent me a nasty message today.[/quote] Which Dave Gorman was it though?
  10. That's incredibly generous of you, thank you.
  11. Just flicked through a few reviews on YT, and I've got to say it seems mighty impressive. For the price I would seriously consider this.
  12. [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='774818' date='Mar 14 2010, 11:54 PM']Basschat isn't going to be encouraging more guitarists to join.[/quote] Good, we don't need their sort around here. With their extra strings, strumming, funny chords. There's simply not enough room for them anyway, they'd use up all the forum space and take services away from indigenous musicians. We must stick together against this: Basschatters, Not for multi-instrumentalists Party. (or the BN[size=1]fm-n[/size]P) Join today I say. Oh dear I think I've just had a funny turn, I'm off for a lie down.
  13. Welcome. Have fun.
  14. Did someone mention reverb? I'm a reverb tart, love it. Should be made law that there must reverb on everything. As with aresnic and urb and as I've alluded to before I like your solo stuff (as does Mrs M, she has impeccable taste, married me after all). EDIT: I can't really comment on the mix and so forth, I've listened to them through my iMac and the speakers are quite frankly awful and tinny.EDIT As a tune, I probably prefer Sun Shine. Great stuff. Cheers
  15. According to Dr. M. Stoppard's glorious Family Health Guide, which was lovingly given to myself and the good lady M by her mother, CPT.. "...occurs because the soft tissues within the carpel tunnel swell and press on the median nerve at the wrist. Such swelling may occur during pregnancy, as part of rheumatoid arthritis and after a wrist fracture. It may be a feature of RSI. In most cases there is no clear-cut cause." Splendid. Hopefully we are no further forward with that one. I've just reassessed my thumb position, and as I thought it's all over the place.
  16. [quote name='Clarky' post='775368' date='Mar 15 2010, 04:16 PM']They always say it helps in any job application if you can prove you are a well-rounded individual with extra-curricular interests.[/quote] That's me out of the running then
  17. Good grief! You must have a separate house to store all those in surely. My personal faves are the Spectors. Pop one down anytime you like Mighty impressive, all of it.
  18. [quote name='chris_b' post='774812' date='Mar 14 2010, 11:48 PM']The one you like the most.[/quote] Good call, like your thinking. I'll second that.
  19. Where can one pick up an application form, or is it CV's and covering letter only?
  20. [quote name='cheddatom' post='774940' date='Mar 15 2010, 09:03 AM']I saw them play on saturday. T[u][b]he bass player's tone was absolutely bollock shaking[/b][/u]. I took a look at his pedalboard later, there was a looper of some sort, controlling loads of pedals which were behind some perspex. The perspex wasn't exactly polished, and my vision wasn't exactly focussed. Can anyone tell me what he uses?[/quote] That's rather pleasing to hear! (sorry about the unintended pun). I haven't got to see them live, but on the latest album when the bass player starts up on 'Goliath' he sounds like he's unleashed a wild animal. Would love to hear that live.
  21. The string directly above, but is subject to change at a moments notice. Like Bassasin, self taught and probably poor.
  22. A hearty good welcome to you. May you enjoy your journey into basschat.
  23. [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='774135' date='Mar 14 2010, 10:12 AM']It was f'ing awesome... Sorry! I'd gonas far to say I'd put it in my top 10 of all time :-)[/quote] Don't be sorry. Great to hear that they are a damn good band live. It would probably grate a little if you said they'd sucked Good to hear you had a good time, just wish I live closer to the live 'circuit'.
  24. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=78338"]Ibanez Promethean [/url] You may also wish to consider one of these.
  25. A lot of stuff crammed in there. More importantly though, how was the gig? No, in actual fact don't tell me I'll just get depressed
