    Thanks Dr Dave! My real name is Andy Frazer, so I thought I'd better get a pseudonym, in case anybody expected me to be able to play!

    So, looking at a Jazz for my first 'proper' bass. Question is, should I fork out £900 for a MIA? Are they really that much better than the MIJ/MIM? And will I be able to tell the difference? Might keep the peace indoors if I only spend £500!

    is there nothing bootsy cant do

    Pros...

    Ample secure FREE parking,
    Buzzer entry system (so you can leave the Uzi at home),
    Walking distance from DLR (Deptford Bridge) & National Rail (Deptford) - less than 10 min walk,
    Bus Routes [url="http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/gettingaround/maps/buses/pdf/deptford-10316.pdf"]47 (Catford Garage to Shoreditch, Deptford Church St. stop P)[/url] & [url="http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/gettingaround/maps/buses/pdf/greenwich-2106.pdf"]199 (Catford Garage to Canada Water [for Jubilee Line], Creek Road-Creekside)[/url] go past the end of the street,
    Local Greggs, Percy Ingle, Tesco Express, a takeaway Curryhouse, Barclays & HSBC within a 10 min walk.

    Cons...

    None - they'll all be up the market on Deptford High Street fleecing the punters.


    Creekside looks good! And none too expensive - and they do pot noodles - that seals it for me!

    Bass acrostics

    in General Discussion

    I've always liked those car acrostics - like Fiat = fix it again Toni, or found in a tip, and my favourite - Lotus = lots of trouble, usually serious. So I thought it might be fun to try some bass ones (of course, I could be wrong!) So here's a couple to kick off with-

    Fender - frequently excellent, never disastrous, enormously respected

    Gibson - genuinely iconic, but somehow overlooked now

    bit lame, I know, but let's see what ya got!

    i got one of those for 350 with an ibanez case. really good value for moeny in my opinion.[/quote]

    Is that the new model? Where did you get it? How does it play/sound - I've been thinking about one of these!

    I am a newbie bassist, and I come from down your way...

    [quote name='Clarky' post='781402' date='Mar 21 2010, 09:39 AM']Can't remember for definite but in my schoolboy band (back in 1980) I played covers of 'Crocodile' by Echo & The Bunnymen, 'Ceremony' by New Order and 'Damaged Goods' by Gang of Four, so it was probably one of those[/quote]

    Man, I can't get used to the idea that 1980 was 30 years ago! All that stuff sounds pretty fresh to me, but I suppose it's the equivalent of my dad trying to make me listen to the Andrews Sisters. Doesn't feel that way, but that's how it is!
