  1. I would never sell any of them.

    Jackson futura- had since 1994 first good bass

    Yamaha bbn5- had since 1996, sounds awesome. It has taken a kicking over the years and still in one piece. Plus over the years i've had people i meet inscribe their name on it (will enclose pic)

    Fender Jazz 62 reissue fretless- beautiful!

    A pair of drumsticks is not [i]that [/i]expensive. Invest in [i]his [/i]future, it'll pay you back many times over in your retirement..!

    Though I must concur with the above comment about drum sticks . . . poor deprived child ;)

    ha ha. He has two pairs but he prefers spoons at the min. I think he's trying to learn two instruments at once.

  3. Hi my son, Stan, loves Gotye. We filmed him playing a singing along to Eyes Wide Open by Gotye. We put it on youtube so members of our families who live miles away could see it.

    So what happens.....someone in Gotye's band sees it and tweets it......Gotye retweets it.....over 3000 people view it. Meaning he is more successful than me. ha ha....perhaps it's time to give up. ha ha

  4. I've recently started doing this for originals gigs. I just take my bass and a Hartke Bass Attack pedal. I love it, you have normal pre amp bits a eq sweep boost (changeable) and you can get a tubey sound from it. At the last gig i did the bass player in the band supplying the amp said don't touch the eq. I just said don't need to. I just used the pedal before it and turned off the compression on the amp. Afterwards he was asking what make my bass was cos it sounded so good through his amp. The pedal can also be used as a D.I box, pre and post.

    What about guitar players who play without a plectrum? Or doesn't it matter?

    Well Jeff beck plays without a pick and he sounds better than most who do! But it doesn't matter. One of the first things i learned being a musician was " If it sounds right, it is right!"

  6. Hi all,

    For sale is a peavey 1x15. Not exactly sure of specs but its got a black widow inside 4 ohm.. The carpet covering is slightly damaged but the speaker cab works fine looking for about £60.
    (the 2x10 in the pic has already been sold. Couldn't fit any more pics on the file if anyone is interested i can send close ups of it that shows the carpet damage).

  8. I want to try selling some stuff on here but i have no upload quota left so i can't upload pictures. How can you get it emptied? I've gone back through my content but all the uploads were from early posts and the content doesn't go back that far for me to delete them. Can anyone help?

    God that guy is boring, hardly gets me rushing out to buy one. Plus it would have been nice to hear him play some bass, instead of that pseudo- guitar jazzy chord bollocks that's all the rage.

    I don't think i've ever seen a moustache that isn't silly, maybe apart from Hitler's ;)

  11. They're all right in using your ear, and combining it with theory etc. But there is no hard and fast right way of doing things, whatever works best. Plus don't let people tell you the right and wrong way of doing things. All players have picked up things off other players either by listening or seeing and listening. Also this is a forum where better to ask for help.
    With regard to the 'clinical' thing. It may be, may not be, but by trying different things that you haven't before over time it will become part of your natural ear and ability etc.

    Anyway here is a couple of simple ones of the top of my head that i like and were early ones that i picked up

    Root,5, octave, ninth, octave
    root, 5, combination of 7, octave, ninth
