[quote name='kjb' post='30377' date='Jul 11 2007, 06:13 PM']'Proper' is relative to your point of view.

The bass guitar is only about 50 years old, who knows what it will evolve into, with so young an instrument we should surely be looking forward to the future of it, and embracing it's expanding role, not living in the past.

The electric guitar started of as an acoustic with gut strings, and what about the modern keyboard, look at all of its predecessers.[/quote]

The Funk's correct,I'm only kidding,
chill out,
use your sense of humor,
enjoy life

yeah i been looking at that,very nice.

Like baby oil on a freshly shaved bea.............. (porn alert!)[/quote]
....ver

i tried EB hybrid slinkys when i had me 'ray & thought they were great but they went dead really quick so i've not tried any more.

[quote name='Viper' post='27397' date='Jul 5 2007, 12:49 PM']I almost bought a Jaguar bass yesterday - it played and sounded nice but will be trying out a couple of others before I make a decision... though I have a feeling it'll be the Jag I'll end up getting.

buy it you won't regret it, i absolutely love mine to bits

looks buggered to me

Drums Chad Smith
Bass Jack Bruce
Guitar Stevie Ray Vaughn
Vocal Ronnie James Dio

strange mix i know,but all masters of their art.

Fender bass 1V
i don't know why i just want one.

I'd go for the ashdown perfect 10 mini rig too.mind i bought one a few weeks back.
sound wise i'm very pleased with it,not shure about me neighbours though

[quote name='EdwardHimself' post='26390' date='Jul 3 2007, 10:44 AM']wow if i didn't know any better i would have thought that was an old bass. Fender really did get what they wanted with this one, didn't they?[/quote]

yes its a beauty for shure + i still can't believe how nice it plays & sounds.i'd recommend one of these to any body.
btw the neck is even slimmer than my Jazz bass with a very low action which makes it a really fast player for those mid-gig Flea style solos (I wish)

[quote name='andy_$$' post='26163' date='Jul 2 2007, 06:42 PM']At the moment I'm listening to a lot of Ian Dury and the Blockheads.
Norman Watt Roy is a genius!
Andy[/quote]

he's a real nice bloke too,i've met him 3 times when we supported Wilco Johnson at Fibbers in York.

as for favourite band/bassist
Cream Jack Bruce
RHCP Flea
Black Sabbath Geezer Butler
Iron Maiden Steve Harris

Modulus Flee bass don't care what colour 'cos i can't afford it anyway
its just nor fair.

nice bass.the black plate really makes it.

OMG I've just done something childish in me pants

that is bloody lurvly
i'm so so so so so so so so so so so jealous :wacko:

i find Fender 9050L to be pretty good--cheap too.

[quote name='dlloyd' post='25548' date='Jul 1 2007, 10:59 AM']Maggie May... parts are good, but the remainder suggests drunkeness...[/quote]

+1
i think this is some of the worst bass playing i've ever heard.

ok thanks guys

anyone know were i can get one of these ?
there is an american ebay seller with 'em but i'd rather buy from a uk seller.
cheers.

[quote name='martthebass' post='24577' date='Jun 28 2007, 06:24 PM']Very nice................any left at that price?[/quote]

no sorry mate,this guy did have 2 but i bought the last one-lucky old me

nice bass bass, pity the vocalist couldn't sing (sorry can't remember his name but man was he crap) Paolo Nutini thats his name,like i said he was really crap.
the rest of the band were good thought.
