[quote name='topo morto' timestamp='1369161977' post='2085697'] Apparently only a 30 hour cycle ride from me.... might be able to get there and back over the long weekend! [/quote] 30 hours on a push iron ?! Surely [i]You [/i]deserve it

Why not just run it twice ?

Put me down on "the list" cheers!

Its only the body that is 3d printed, which is a bit of a swizz! We need a fully 3d printed bass to test. I bravely volunteer to test it to destruction. (not by smashing it, just by my awful twanging)

It must be something to do with it actually looking different from what you are used to. I have the same problem with 5 stringers.

[quote name='chrismuzz' timestamp='1362877142' post='2005833'] Just out of interest, check out how ridiculously tight Dave Ellefson's playing is! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rN5N84lUFY&feature=player_embedded[/media] [/quote] Wow that Ellefson isolated bass playing is pretty damn fine.

[quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1362863913' post='2005636'] My pleasure, 3below. Incidentally, the photo below may raise a smile in those of you who, like me, are addicted to attending music shows. I've been so for nearly 20 years and I've got the evidence! [/quote] Yeah you need to keep the tickets and flyers, to jog the memory in your old age. I have a flyer from a 1980 weekender 'Futurama' festival in Leeds with 35 bands on it and i can only recal watching one of them, even though Im sure I must have saw [i]at least [/i]20.

I went to buy a Zoom pedal once off a forum member. He kindly gave me a play of his 5 string and for some unkown reason the extra string just befuddled me. It was so emabaressing, as I sat there plink plonking away. I have no idea why it did that to me, but it just reinforced a prejudice that I already vaguely felt against 5 strings at some basic level [size=3][i](ie: A bass has 4 strings, any more than that and its not a bass. Sort of thinking) [/i][/size] [size=4][i]So my 'transistion' was non exsistant, and always will be [/i][/size] [size=4][i][size=3][i] [/i][/size][/i][/size]

[quote name='RockfordStone' timestamp='1361181249' post='1982177'] sorry mate but that comment is bollocks. musicians write and record for themselves, cos they wan't to. money isn't the driver behind it. how many of us here spend time and money in the studio with the intention of making money from it? i spend hours writing and recording, and have spent a lot of money in studio's and tours with no expectation of making money, if people have thought my music good enough to pay me for then fair play. but i as many muso's do it cos i love music and not money. if you are going into a studio to make music for the soul intention of making money... then you are in the wrong game [/quote] Well said mate. Couldn't have put it clearer myself.
