Cutting through the mix - I believe I have found the problem

[quote name='longtimefred' timestamp='1330102434' post='1552858'] Metallica's black album was also mainly recorded using a Spector as well. I know loads of rock n metal players that use these. I have had 5 myself. This is one stunning looking bass. Hope it goes for you dude. [/quote] Was it now? I didn't know that! I thought Jason was on the Sadowskys at that point. There you go peeps!

[quote name='Bassulike66' timestamp='1330079448' post='1552293'] Im with you on this one brother.....lets have it hard and fast!!! Use a plectrum as well....sod the pureists!! [/quote] Haha, I am unbelievably tempted.., if only to draw out the inevitable "what is the slap sound like" questions Whilst the whole range of Euro and US Spectors have some incredibly refined sounds, such as would be at home with jazz, funk and the like, they also make incredible rock basses. I mean, where have we seen Spectors before - Pantera? Black Label Society? Nickelback? Robert Plant?

[quote name='fatback' timestamp='1330097959' post='1552763'] This one's transferable - how about 'working really hard for very little money.' [/quote] No, this one is lost on me

I'm wondering if I saw this one when I visited. Jon does some very good work, so it's good to see you enjoying it - I like the clean lines and simple colours, it all works so very well. Delighted for you

[quote name='Linus27' timestamp='1330094167' post='1552639'] AAAAHHHHH he used business-speak. Must count to ten, must count to ten [/quote] We could have one more, if you like - what about learning the importance of synergy in operation and execution? Does being in a band not provide you with a perfect example of such?

I am now able to communicate with the common folk using the vernacular. I am sh*t hot with Powerpoint, so there's hope for me yet.

Very nice, chief - always good to see an old friend return, eh? Always fancied a go on one of these, but never managed to try one.

[quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1330068759' post='1552121'] No good would come of this, there would just be more spam on the forum and less things for sale. [/quote] I doubt it, personally. I think it would simply put the opportunists off at the gate - and I don't think we've seen major problems on the other bass sites operating a similar policy. I don't think it would significantly impede the For Sale forum, which sees a lot of traffic from more regular posters, and hopefully inspire some more confidence in buyers - I'm with my namesake Gareth, in that I start to wonder when the first post is a For Sale item. What it does do is ensure you've got some reasonably regular posters coming through. You'll still get the walk-through traffic, as people will come to sell their gear as they are now... and then they've got a choice to stay or not; you've got to hope, if they're choosing to stay and meet a modest post count requirement, that they're the ones we genuinely want, who are going to share their knowledge as well as their Ebay links. You'll have to let us know if this debate is panning out in line with the Ric forum experience, Skank - I expect so

Sorry mate, despite living here for years I've not tried anywhere locally. I guess the alternative might be that a forum member, with some more experience, steps in and sorts it for you if you can't find a local shop to do it. Will be good to hear you report back on your experiences, mind.

My BC Rich custom shop is a double P with DiMarzios - it's enough to shake walls! Wizard do some great P/J sets... I have two, so am confirmed as a fan

Evening all - I'm sure this has been suggested before, and I'm only thinking out loud... but what about a minimum post count before members can sell items? I know there are arguments against this - such as people will just spam pointless posts - but we are seeing more people join the site simply to post Ebay links to their items for sale. I've always imagined the For Sale section being an additional piece of functionality for the community, not some more general or more mercenary service. BCRichPlayers.com has a similar scheme, requiring a minimum of 50 posts - it's had good feedback to-date. Thoughts? Am I just being a pedant? Does my bum look big on this?

[quote name='ead' timestamp='1330002118' post='1551122'] My story is very similar: Rugby, gym, (and rowing) slipped disc in neck. [/quote] I always thought, if I was going to do it, it would be doing something pretty awful - like a bad tackle. I just didn't realise how precious the back can be, and how little it takes to upset it. I'll have to look into the Overwater strap. If it's working for a fellow-sufferer, it should work for me.

How much can the alignment be resolved by some minor adjustments?

That would be cool, if you get a chance - very interested to hear more. Had a stroll around Leeds to see if I could find one, to no luck.

This is timely Any chance of a clip? The few on YouTube are mixed.
