  1. Glad you saw them, sounds great. I saw them live outdoors in Teignmouth a few years ago - awesome. For Time is Running Out I believe it's a combination of octaver and distortion, which ones I don't know but hopefully someone else will. Our band plays the song but I only have an OC2 to help me with the sound (I'm not buying a distortion pedal for 1 song). On Saturday when we were playing it in a new venue I could hear a horrible rattling sound when my pedal was on. I commented on it later to our drummer saying it sounds loke my speakers can't handle the ocataver but he said it was his snare rattling, phew!
  2. My Ray has quite a few dings. It's my workhorse and I plan on keeping it long term. If you get a ding in the back of neck then worry about it.
  3. Only very occasionally if I'm picking and jumping strings a lot. Won't bother if using fingers though.
  4. Cool. Will record. Thanks for the heads up.
  5. [quote name='spongebob' timestamp='1369759065' post='2092415'] I managed all 14 answers - but only managed one above the lowest in each. ! [size=4] [/size] [/quote] Me too. Thanks for the heads up. Caught it on iplayer. An enjoyable 15 mins
  6. Peavey do some good cabs. This has the blue marvel speaker which I believe is not as good as the black widow.
  7. Checking it out now. Some great stuff.
  8. Try Mansons first. Good bass section.
  9. Wow, I winder what that could be. Are you invitded on to The One Show or will the bass make an appearance on Later with Dave Swift using it on a song?
  10. Cool. I too have a honeyburst but with 2eq & a rosewood neck. It came with a clear scratchplate which really shows off the body. I have recently changed it for a mirror scratchplate which looks really good too. Enjoy.
  11. Is it a king hard decision to make?
  12. [quote name='Lynottfan' timestamp='1368028620' post='2072255'] I like the fact that he had built a band around him, and he is out there playing live, he is not the worst by a long way. Not impressed with Marta on that vid (and I am a fan ) its one of the easiest things I have seen her play and that is the worst I have seen and heard her play, to me it was just "flat" maybe the Ray5 not a good choice or her sound not a good choice, it lacked imho. [/quote] The other videos are better for sure. She really grooves in them and has great technique for the amount of time she has been playing.
  13. For all you Locked Out Of Heaven fans, don't forget to check out the cover by the great & lovely Marta Altesa on YouTube. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox74xe6l2Yg[/media]
  14. Wow, welcome aboard Guy. I hope you keep posting. I saw your masterclass at the Mansons guitar show a few years ago. It was a real inspiration. A few of us caught up with you afterwards at the Mansons stand. I bought your book which is great and highly recommended. There is a picture of me on here somewhere playing Betsy. I regret not going to your standup that night in Exeter and will be keeping an eye out for another one of your gigs. I'm another big Floyd fan who's pleased to be able to share the same platform as one of my peers.
  15. [quote name='barkin' timestamp='1366584193' post='2054619'] Always. Can't see jack without 'em, and wouldn't want to miss a jugfest.. [/quote] Indeed. We gig to watch the audience, while they watch and listen to us.
  16. In our current bands previous incarnation we had the JAWS tune!
  17. Another for Audacity.
  18. Taxi driver for quite a few gigs, orgainse the odd gig, do the PA mixing during the gig.
  19. [quote name='Dave Vader' timestamp='1366367484' post='2051489'] If you make a pigs bollock of the 1st 10 seconds, by all means, call a halt and start again, make a joke of it, but once you're in and going then keep going to the end, [/quote] +1 for this. Been there & got the T-Shirt.
  20. It's an original late 80's Charvel before they were called Jackson. It's the 2B passive model with bolt on neck. Similar to mine but I have installed actives. Plays a treat.
  21. We always have a few and keep changing them. Currently listening to the first 2 Stereophonics albums.
  22. Welcome to the club. My EBMM 2 band eq Ray is still my go to bass.
  23. There is plenty of Bowie on the box at the moment. Seen some great programmes recently.
  24. This video has been posted before. I like it. The bass player is the guitarist who swaps with Gail Ann Dorsey for this song.
  25. Never heard of Chordify, but sounds interesting & legal. IME all the official tab & notation books are far superior to almost all uploaded tabs.
