[quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1427396302' post='2729958'] Yep, True. But in fairness to Ambient, he did say Rhythm section. [/quote] ok then, I'll get mi coat..............................................

[quote name='ambient' timestamp='1427162895' post='2726681'] With regard to expression, beauty and emotion ? I find that I'm listening to more and more classical music recently. Except for stuff that I do for uni, I don't listen to anything with a rhythm section at all. I just heard Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings on classic FM, what a beautiful piece of music. Earlier they played the theme to Schindlers list by John Williams. I can't think of a contemporary piece of music that's so hauntingly beautiful. [/quote] All music is made up of rhythm, bit of a strange comment. Are you a music student, I would have thought that was in lesson 1.

I did post this topic as a bit of a 2 fingers to the post about Why I sold my Ric. Great to see some positives, and happy type post. Kind of makes my week really. Ta very glad BIGd

[quote name='thebrig' timestamp='1427227775' post='2727653'] What about all the metal bits? [/quote] who gives a crap, you'll be dead and gone

I have a 1973 Fireglo 2001, checker board binding and original case. It was left to me by a sadly missed friend. I love the look, sound and feel. It doesn't suit all styles of music, but never have a problem getting a good sound. Those of you who would like to try a real Rickenbacker , if you live around the Manchester/Huddersfield area drop me a PM and you can come and have a test drive. I Love It, great bit of kit.

I just do, it's fab.

I don't see how you could possibly own the copyright of a mix. The music or recording no problem, but just the mix you wouldn't own anything............................................... I think The BBC etc would have permission to play music, a mix is not music. If this was the case you could say the way you set Bass and treble when you play a track is your copyright, so if anybody was to set there own eq the same you would be owed money for breaking copyright............................................ wouldn't you, or am I missing something?

Chris Squire, say no more.....

The thing to be aware of is your GP is just a starting point. You have CP you need a hand specialist to decide what the next step in treatment is. As has been said you may not need an operation. As far as negativity regarding CP ops. People don't go on the internet to say how good something was or is, they go on if it goes wrong. I think it's a very low percentage of operations that go wrong but yes sometimes they do, thats life. I can only speak from my own experience, and I have had very positive outcome from both of my CP releases. I only had to stop playing for about 4 weeks in both cases, and have had no problems since. Good luck and get yourself sorted.

I have had both wrists operated on, solved all the problems. Get yourself checked out properly, a forum is not the place to get advise on health issues. Everybody is different, what worked for me may not be what will work for you. Hope you get sorted, please go talk to someone who will know what to do in your case. Ta very glad Dale

Dave Meros from Spocks Beard make a good noise on a Rick, Into the mouth of Madness as a example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eX64a7pXnFw

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1422443960' post='2672645'] A euphemism, obviously. [/quote] No it's a BBb Besson Tuba really.

I'm very lucky, my wife has bought all my basses and guitars as birthday or xmas gifts for me. Oooohh yeah and she just bought me a Tuba about 2 weeks ago. Always have a partner who is a musician, works a treat in my case, married 30 years this year.

Can I just ask as it's killing me to know, who is Jerry?

MDF with a set of nice wall lights.

Happy Christmas and a fantastic New Year everybody, have a good un...... Ta very glad Dale (BIGd)

We have a curry night with lots of beer....

In my band we had both guitar players who had the big is best way of thinking. After lots of rehearsals that you couldn't hear the vocals at, myself and the drummer (YES the drummer) told them both they had to do something about the volume. Guitar player 1 changes his Marshall half stack with 4x12 cab for a Vox tranny amp that has built in FX (can't remember the model) problem solved for him. Guitar player 2 gave the "I can't get my sound at any lower volume" excuse using a Fender hot rod deluxe. He wouldn't use a pedal etc. Now I know money was an issue for him, but we didn't expect him to buy new amp or anything. I even offered to loan him my tube screamer, or couple of other overdrive pedals I have. All to no avail. We had to get rid, not something the rest of us were to happy about at the time but, some players and from my experience guitarist a) think its great to play loud. I can't disagree but its just not practical. Will never take advice from the bass player (what do we know abut playing an instrument ! ) As some have said I think it is a historical thing with guitar amps, more so with my group as we are all over the age of 50 and if the guitarist you use big amps, smaller amps have only recently started to sound really good, but thats no excuse to sound crap.

Is the Mcmillen softstep the same idea, can you use it like a piano keyboard ?

Yes i do have a Korg Triton plus vst so sounds are not a problem. I am looking for a PK-5 but they seem to be a bit like rocking horse poo to track down. Thanks for your input. Although I think I have kind of worked out the B/ringer wouldn't do the job but I'm looking for other solutions.

thanks guys
