Cheers for the comments guys. Not sure if I want to be fiddling with the nut on my Rick... and certainly not a little short scale thing like my Gibson... perhaps buying a 5 is the way to go. I think I can push C# with no flapping on the 4's - will have to see how that goes

Hi chaps / chapettes... I'm currently thinking about forming another band with a guitarist pal of mine. He's proper into his heavy music and I personally like a bit of devil horned stuff as well, particularly as its going to be originals which I havent had to do in a [b]very[/b] long time. He also mentioned that this will involve a certain amount fo tuning down. After a little bit of discussion we think we would be looking at C or C#, which im happy with.... but will my bass be happy with it? I dont own (and have never owned) a bass with more than 4 strings, im a bit old skool as far as that goes! Does anyone here play a 4 who regularly tunes down to that kind of level... and is it OK to do this to your instrument? And if it isnt - perhaps all you multi stringers could suggest a 5 or a 6 string which would fit the bill? The basses I normally play are listed in my sig, which should give you an idea of what is "my bag"... Cheers guys!

Ive been playing that number for years and I dont think ive ever played it the same way twice. Particularly the "D" part in the verse... thats funtime! hehe

When I use a plectrum I just steal my guitarists ones.

How the hell have they managed to put that price on it? Far far far too cheap! I paid considerably more for mine

Cheers Matt - enjoy the cab!

Possibly the most concise reply to anything, ever! Brilliant :-)
