  1. Sorry not "Yes" related. Posting this as this thread seems to have migrated to band line up discussions. So, on Nile Rodgers Facebook page: A quick respectful note about CHIC for those whom don't seem to understand our concept, which has been the same since it's inception. I think I had too many cups of coffee this morning. The CHIC Organization was the vessel created by Bernard Edwards and myself to perform our compositions. Think jazz groups or orchestras. When players move on or pass away, the NY Philharmonic or the Modern Jazz Quartet doesn't change it's name. The organization still performs their repertoire. Just as the director of a symphony orchestra it's my responsibility to keep the quality of CHIC functioning at the highest level possible. In all my 40 years plus, I've never heard a journalist say The Mahavishnu Orchestra is not The Mahavishnu Orchestra when Billy Cobham left or when Jerry Goodman, Jean-Luc Ponty or Gayle Moran came in and out. Is this still a form of intellectually snobbery that my great teachers at Jazzmobile purged me of when I was a mere teenager? Everyone but r&b, pop and dance music composers are held to a higher standard. At best it's an accidental shame. At worst it's deliberate. ~ #NileRodgers
  2. Used this quite a lot. [url="https://www.ronimusic.com/index.html"]https://www.ronimusic.com/slowdown.htm[/url]
  3. Would a pair of old in-ear headphones protect me any ? What makes those metal ones that keep spamming me on Fbook any different
  4. Ive been looking for advice about 1st fret action too and found this: http://www.harmonycentral.com/forum/forum/Forums_General/acapella-94/295602-
  5. Cool. Thanks for the Download. https://thedirtybomb.bandcamp.com/releases

  7. What is that gizmo next to the guitar player ? (Tim Akers video)
  8. When I was looking for a Precision Bass I wanted the neck to be as close to my stingray as possible. I finally settled for a new "Fender '70s Precision Bass"
  9. Realplayer does it on windows7. Even the free version.
  10. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1357826947' post='1929058'] [b]2013 Closet Classic Precision[/b] Fender Custom Shop have revealed the 2013 Closet Classic Precision, part of the Custom Shop Pro Series. [url="http://www.fender.com/en-GB/basses/precision-bass/2013-closet-classic-precision-bass-pro/"]http://www.fender.co...ision-bass-pro/[/url] [color=#FFFFFF].[/color] [/quote] I would like to hear the thump from this before I decide I don't think I would pay custom shop prices though
  11. [quote name='Dave Vader' timestamp='1357569526' post='1924609'] Take a phono lead out of the back and plug it into your stereo, I've been doing this for years. Stereo, not surround, but good enough. [/quote] Yes done that, Too lazy to turn the Hifi on most of the time though. But have you seen those Surround sound Amps. Huge they are with millions of phono sockets on the back. Newer ones have HDMI though.
  12. Collected bass from Ted and am very pleased. No Rush No Hassle, Confident and Courteous. Thanks. Howie (zzaass)
  13. I can play flac files through the line-out on my [url="http://www.rockbox.org/"]Rockboxed [/url]G5.5 Ipod. Sounds as good as CD and nearly as good as vinyl on my old separates. I spend most of my time next to my desk computer in a different room though, where I listen through my [url="http://www.esi-audio.com/products/near05experience/"]NSI nEar05[/url] powered speakers. I havnt paid a lot for any of my kit, but quality of sound IS important to me. My TV sounds a bit crap though. Never got into surround sound systems and the like. There doesnt seem to be a cheap way of having one system for both movies and music.
  14. What is the nut with on this one.. is it the pb62 or pb62US what wood Have you weighed it ? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/179887-fender-japan-1962-reissue-p-basses/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/179887-fender-japan-1962-reissue-p-basses/[/url]
