    [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1339153827' post='1684421'] In the originals band that I`m in, the singer/rhythm guitarist writes all the songs, and my way of writing the bassline is simply follow the chords with root-notes, until the whole band have "got" the song. From there, I listen to the areas where the drums are busy/quiet, and add my fills/runs/lines in those quieter spaces. No point in coming up with something that`s good if it will be overpowered if not placed correctly. [/quote] admittedly in a rock/pop sense you don't want to overpower but in a lot of funk/ jazz it's a technique used to create a chaotic feel/ tension and then the release is when it simplifies.

    [b]LISTEN TO MUSIC[/b].... Analyse parts the you like, not just the bassline! Find out what scales, arpeggio's or chord tones are being played against the chord. Also rhythmically, where does it sit in the bar, is it syncopated? Then you can start working these idea's into your own basslines. Without listening to lots of different music in detail your basslines are always going to be fairly limited

    [quote name='JakeBrownBass' timestamp='1339141068' post='1684151'] When unsure about keys, analyse the chord changes with Roman Numerals (this is a good exercise in it's self). You begin to find sub dominants, borrowed chords etc... Then when things start to really make no sense the song has generally, changed key or it's simply a random chord that sounded good and makes no theoretical sense. [/quote] porkpie hat is not like your average tune to analyse When i tried to do it my tutor got out his berklee analysis. I'll see if i can find it anywhere

    Hi guys, just need a bit of info for my dissertation. Are there any well known apps for smart phones/ tablets that offer instructions for learning bass?

    [quote name='Hodge' timestamp='1339008971' post='1682447'] From what I understand they changed in 2006. Before that they had the spaghetti logo, after that they had the 70s style and graphite reinforced necks. [/quote] +1

    [quote name='such' timestamp='1339005005' post='1682339'] An American Vintage '62 Reissue perhaps? I'm by no means a Fender specialist, but I know that model exists and it looks (to my eyes) very much like this one. [/quote] headstocks wrong for an AV. Highway One is a good shout

    [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1338997862' post='1682174'] There's only a 1lb difference between your cab and the Markbass cab!! I'd keep your rig and get a trolley. [/quote] Im going to get a trolley i think anyway but theres a few reasons i'm looking to swap. 1) I've been using hartke hydride for 4 and a bit years now and i fancy a change. 2) Not only are there a few dimension differences in the cab but i also will need a small lightweight head to carry separately. This is why I'm thinking of the little mark. If i can only sell one cab and the head then i will get a lightweight head for the Hartke cab, but i like to keep my rig matching

    I'm looking to downsize for when i sell my car and will be using the tube and buses for transport So up for grabs are my Hartke HX112's and LH500. Ideally i would like to trade for a Mark Bass NY121 and Little Mark II however, i will consider similar setups. If a trade doesn't occur i will sell. I would like to sell it as a rig or split to head+cab. I don't want to sell the head unless i've sold a cab as then i would have two cabs and nothing to play through. Money wise i would like £230 per cab and £220 for the head or £620 for the total rig (£220 per cab and £180 for head) or £410 for 1 cab and the head (220 cab and 190 head). Here are the specs for the cabs. They are in good condition with a few light scratches/ marks. [list] [*]1 x 12-inch 300 watt HyDrive neodymium hybrid cone driver [*]1-inch titanium compression driver [*]Power Handling: 300 watts [*]Ported Cabinet [*]Impedance: Switchable between 4 and 8 ohms [*]Frequency Response: 41 Hz to 17 kHz [*]Sensitivity: 96 dB @ 1 W/1 m [*]Voice Coil: 2.5" [*]Parallel Speakon® and 1/4" inputs [*]High Frequency attenuation switch (On, -6 dB, Off) [*]Dimensions: 19"(H) x 15"(W) x 16"(D) [*]Weight: 30.4 lbs [/list] And the Head. Again in good condition with a few small scratches. [list] [*]500 watts of power @ 4 ohms [*]Classic 12AX7 High Voltage Class-A tube preamp circuit [*]Bass and Treble Shelving, plus mid-peak EQ controls [*]Selectable brite switch for added high frequency response [*]Selectable limiter switch with LED indicator [*]Front panel XLR balanced direct output [*]Rear panel 1/4-inch effects loop [*]1/4-inch output connectors [*]Two-rackspace metal chassis with steel faceplate and handles [/list]

    bump. Maybe tempted to partially trade for a small lightweight rig. i.e. 1x12 cab and small portable head.

    guildfest requires you to buy £1800 worth of tickets to sell on just to play on a small stage. People do it though.....

    ahhhhhhhhhh!!!! The only thing making me think twice about that jazz is the lack of blocks and binding. I will always try saving up for the real deal but in the mean time......
