  1. [quote name='paul torch' timestamp='1357506638' post='1923815'] danelectro longnorn [/quote] Yes.Vile.
  2. Precision body,Jazz neck.But I do have stumpy fingers.
  3. I don't think I have too much gear,but my wife does.
  4. Greenburst Fender Precision and a HiWatt?
  5. [quote name='Pete Academy' timestamp='1358368335' post='1938056'] This post will no doubt piss people off, but I gather Peter Hook is doing a masterclass at the Bass Guitar Show. A masterclass? He seems a very average player who happened to be in A successful band. Am I missing something? [/quote] An interesting question.I am a hardcore Joy Division fan,Hooky's playing is more about melody lines and up front sound rather than technique,so what exactly is he going to show us in a bass masterclass? Use an open string as a drone note? Already knew how to do that,got it off the Banshee's Steve Severin,as did Hooky. If it's a chance to chat with a nice guy and legitamate legend all well and good,but what's he actually going to teach anyone?
  6. Motorhead's Overkill is the perfect driving music.I've always found Discharge's Visions Of War tends to make me drive a little faster.
  7. Myself! Finally got round to putting up the only video my old Industrial duo did on Youtube.Except there's no bass so I won't post it here.I did mime some bass on it though.More fun than standing by a sequencer twiddling my thumbs.I was a bit surprised it took over an hour to upload,any one else had this problem?
  8. Don't worry about it being left handed,the parts are the same as right handed ones.
  9. DR Black Beauties on stage,Daddario Nickels evertwhere else. I despise Rotosound with a passion you would find difficult to contemplate.
  10. I've got a HiWatt B 15.It's tiny and makes the bass louder,which is pretty much all you can expect from this class of combo.
  11. I'd go for the Roger Waters sig because it's black.
  12. Judging someone's worth based on technical ability is supremely stupid.
  13. Dig out the basses on the sofa thread!
  14. My main 78 Precision has a patch where the paint has worn down to the undercoat where my wrist used to rest on it,other than that a few dings here and there and that's it.
  15. No one expects the........
  16. Comfy chair,everything else is irrelevant.
  17. [quote name='LiamPodmore' timestamp='1355752441' post='1902157'] Does anything else need to be said other than that picture? Liam [/quote] Yes. Slade.
  18. [quote name='jaydentaku' timestamp='1355736563' post='1901857'] [/quote] Where can I get me one?
  19. Cymbals are the worst.When I started wearing earplugs at rehersals (we peaked at 129 db....) I suggested to the drummer he might want to consider earplugs.His response was"I'm behind the amplifiers,I don't need them"..He now has serious hearing problems.
  20. Advantages? None,unless you play open strings all the time. Brass fingers would make a difference but not a brass nut.
  21. [size=1]Agreed.....[/size]
  22. Get a db meter and check your onstage levels.If it's 2 of you both hearing the same change,it's likely your perception rather than 2 different amps both failing.
  23. Ermmm....Discharge's Realities of War...
  24. Agreed,Young Chang Fenix. I had a lefty P bass for a while.
  25. JJ Burnel.Don't think I even knew what a bass was before then.
