They say if it ain’t broke don’t fix it well it got fixed now it’s broke ....great 😕

OK mate will do Thanks Paul

Ok Might open it up again and take some Thanks Paul

Hi Thats sounds great my email is [email protected] Thanks Paul

Hi Dan Yes thought so Ive been quoted 150.00 to replace the digital board seems a lot to me Thanks for the info Paul

Before I commit amplicide can any one, I repeat anyone help ? The digital part of my amp has gone by by.3 shops/repairers in the Dorset area have had no luck in diagnosing the fault. Can anyone help ? Thanks

Hi I had active pick ups installed on my p bass 20 years ago not only was the output signal stronger but the actual tonal quality of the instrument was inhanced.The process devalued the bass which was built in 1979 but it sounds amazing to this day !

Hi I have the same problem and the same response from 2 repairers in the the Dorset area apparently Absolute music can fix it as they use and have to service the amps in their rehearsal rooms

Hi My bh250 packed up a few months back. I've been to 2 repairers who've said that due to the digital nature of the amp it couldn't be repaired by them and would have to go back to TC has anyone else had a similar problem Thanks Paul

I once spent months learning a set of tunes which included Scarified and Jack hammer for Paul Gilbert.I tried to explain to the festival organiser that this was [font=inherit]beyond my pay grade but he seemed to think that I'd be able to cope with the musical onslaught.[/font] [font=inherit]After the initial learning process and a change of several pairs of under pants, the dreaded day arrived, When PG got to the gig he pulled out a set list that looked a bit Saturday night pub band.( I can only assume he thought that he would be working with a local UK rhythm section myself and Pete Riley,and that it might be best to dumb down the gig.[/font] [font=inherit]I was a little dissapointed having spent 4 months learning his tunes and we ( as a rhythm section) kind of coerced him into playing the more difficult pieces) I'm glad we did !! [/font]not sure if he felt the same though ,but one can dream right ?[font=inherit] [/font] [font=inherit](The bass is quite low in the mix but the drums and guitar are quite frankly staggering)[/font] [url="https://soundcloud.com/frannie01/sets/paul-gilbert-igf-2005"]https://soundcloud.c...ilbert-igf-2005[/url] not sure if he felt the same though ,but one can dream right ?

I really like this arrangement of the Beales eight Days a week. Terry Quinney our Tenor Saxophonist re harmonised and arranged it,it has a haunting quality I think, but what the fxx do I know ! [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2qrw3Hby9g"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2qrw3Hby9g[/url]

Billies Bounce straight forward mid tempo Jazz Blues in F in think.I was lucky to have Sagat Guiery to hand to play guitar he's great and has worked with Bryan Ferry and Mark king so made it really easy for me [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekGvZq6lL8o"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekGvZq6lL8o[/url]

[quote name='jimbobothy' timestamp='1436570943' post='2819321'] Just wondering if your solo was indeed 17 bars long? Seemed nice and flowing, I just got the feeling that the last phrase was one bar too long as I was expecting the solo to continue . [/quote] Hi, Sorry this is now over 2 years old thanks for the comments.I re-harmonised the changes for purple rain but as far as i know i soloed over 1 chorus ( 1 time through) I cant remember now how many bars the songs is but yeah just 1 time through bearing in mind I've used compound time 12/8 instead of the usual 4/4 17 bar solo sounds a bit complex for me but I'll have another listen. Actually thinking about it now I had to edit the mp3 down in size as there wasn't much storage left on here to post any files maybe thats it? Cheers PF

[quote name='Buzzy' timestamp='1499422188' post='3331450'] Just a feeler at the moment but I might need a dep for a gig in Kent on 2nd September. The set is mostly Stax and Motown classics. If anyone is interested pm me and we can have a (bass) chat. [/quote] Hi mate I'm working that day but ive set up this face book page to help find bass deps you might want to have a look Regards Paul F [url="https://www.facebook.com/groups/628992467283349/"]https://www.facebook.com/groups/628992467283349/[/url]
