That second one would have saved me a bit of work a few days ago Cheers Mark

I can't help either -- but I recently had to work out Fool For Your Lovin' and I'm facing Walking In The Shadow Of The Blues in the next few days. I recommend you get a Tascam trainer or similar and slow the tracks down until you can hear what's going on. Fool For Your Lovin' is the same basic riff, with a million little fills between. Once you've got the riff, it's just a question of decoding the fills -- or making up your own Good luck. Cheers Mark

I've also got the guitar version. Its on/off switch is patchy but otherwise it's great. Cheers Mark

I doubt we'd have a libel problem -- the law allows for fair comment, which can be extreme as long as the views are honestly held. But the opinion expressed must be based on fact and in the public interest. So my saying that I hated, say, the Dog & Duck because the landlord was rude and the toilets were overflowing would be fine. He is, they are and it's in the public interest for me to warn other bassists about the place. Oh, and in a libel case both the writer and Basschat could be liable. [s]But, IIRC, there has never been a libel case involving a website[/s]. Er, there has.

Awesome. Great track, great logo -- just get rid of that balloon picture. It's so un-metal Particularly love the soaring vocals. And your man can hit the high notes. Not too keen on the growly bits but they work well in places, like the ending. Brilliant. Well done. Cheers Mark

I bought a speaker cable from Pete. He's a great bloke, everything went super-fast and he even sent the goods before my cheque cleared. Nice one. Thanks, mate. Cheers Mark

Ordered and on its way Cheers Mark

[quote name='poptart' post='740754' date='Feb 10 2010, 10:54 AM']Hi There has been price changes on the Auralex products, the GRAMMA has just gone down and the Great GRAMMA has just gone up and I will be making these adjustments on my site today, however I am happy to offer the BC community deals on the Great GRAMMA at £80 inc shipping (saving of £7) NV610 have also come down in the past six months and are great value considering how minding numbingly good they are!! ;-) Mark PS - Just PM me or call the shop - 01926 886433 and I will sort you out.[/quote] Thanks, Mark. I'll pass on the Gramma, I'm afraid -- I've had a lower offer. This group buy thing is getting complicated But I'll definitely be in touch about the NV610 when the time is right. Cheers Mark

Could we have a price for Great Grammas, Mark-Poptart? I might be tempted. I've already got the smaller one. Oh, and can we have a group buy for NV610s? I feel a visit to Warwick coming on ... Cheers Mark

They're obviously a Marmite bass -- but they sound great to my ears. The pickups are very high output and the tone's very clanky. Their neck dive is a pain but nothing that a suede strap won't sort out. And, like many, mine's got finish issues which I ignore. I'd go for the Gibson rather than Epiphone. Cheers Mark

Thanks, Chris. It was a pleasure doing business with you. Cheers Mark

I bought Chris's Hamer guitar -- and I can confirm he's a top bloke. The deal went fine, he put up with my messing about trying to get it picked up and even threw in a Gibson gig bag. Thanks very much, Chris Cheers Mark

[quote name='jonthebass' post='718383' date='Jan 19 2010, 08:53 PM']I see...it's still frickin loud though! I've never had my one over 4 on the Master Volume, and that's at fairy large gigs, etc For the OP, what about Matamp? I think if I were after a valve beast of an amp they'd be getting a call. Good luck, Jon[/quote] My guitarists tell me to turn down at about 3 Cheers Mark

[quote name='jonthebass' post='718331' date='Jan 19 2010, 08:13 PM']The Mesa 400+ puts out 500 Watts into 2, 4 & 8 Ohms iirc...[/quote] But that's 500 watts peak power. It's said to be nearer 300 RMS. Cheers Mark

I'm off to see them in Brum on Monday. It's nowhere near me but friends had a spare ticket Cheers Mark

Just to clarify for the OP, Dave Polglaze, bassic-bits and OBBM are the same company. Cheers Mark

Our very own Dave Polglaze at bassic-bits does great cables. [url="http://www.bassic.co.uk/"]Website here[/url] Cheers Mark
