  1. Up for grabs is my once beloved Ibanez Ergodyne EDB600 4 string bass.

    It's in near immaculate condition. I bought the axe in around 2007 brand new and she cost around £380 if memory serves me correct.

    Today I'm looking for offers around £200.

    The bass has a beautifully thin neck, active pups, 3 band eq and is extremely playable! It has one tiny, tiny blemish on the tip of the headstock. I think it's a bit of paint from a wall.

    I'm based in Central Scotland but am willing to post at no extra cost.

    Viewing is more than possible.

    And for the pics -

  2. Alright all,

    I stalked this forum for a while before joining way back in August 2010 - For the sole purpose of buying Shockwave's beautiful Purple Stingray V. I then went back to just stalking - now with a username I might add.

    It's only been in the last month or so that I've become an active member of the forum and have started posting. I feel that a formal introduction is necessary.

    I'm a Glasgow based player and have been playing for around 8 years now (did NOT realise that until I just counted it up - on the old fingers). I'm currently studying BA in Applied Music in 3rd year at Strathclyde University. When I graduate in a little over a year's time, I hope to make a full time living through music from playing and teaching.

    Currently my main source of work (and money) comes from my wedding band, Little Red - [url="http://www.littleredmusic.co.uk"]http://www.littleredmusic.co.uk[/url]

    However, I also pick up work through theatre shows, jazz gigs, teaching and gigging with a number of originals bands - My main originals band being The Mathletics Team - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0P6ZS5gi8Q"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0P6ZS5gi8Q[/url] - I'm posting this with a little haste. We are a 9 piece. We are/were all music students. We are self indulgent. That IS costumes we are wearing.

    My main two basses are my Fender MIA Jazz and my MM Stingray V. I'm currently using an Ashdown amp setup but am looking into buying a new amp/cab next month - Looking into getting myself a TC Electronic Classic 450 and a Barefaced Midget T.

    I think that's me :)

    +1 for 'Slap It'.

  4. Record. No fancy recording equipment is needed but if you're struggling to remember songs the either take your laptop along to rehearsal (most have a built in mic these days) and record that way. If you have no laptop with built in mic, take along a cassette player/boom box type thing and record onto cassette that way. Finally, when you get home, listen back to the band recordings and then record just the bass line. Listen back to it a few times, play it a few times ... A few days later, play what you remember of it, what you don't, you have recorded.

  5. Hey guys, I'm currently studying BA (Hons) bass guitar at University and have my 3rd year performance exam looming.

    I'm not too sure what to play for the exam.

    It is only a 15 minute exam and can be made up of absolutely anything on the bass guitar and can be played with full band or backing tracks.

    Some people are playing the like of Some Skunk Funk, Got A Match?, Spain, etc etc. However, I see myself as more of a band player than a solo player so would like to stay away from that a little more and look at well constructed, fairly difficult basslines.

    Does anybody have any ideas as to what I could play for it? (Any transcriptions would go a long way too!)

    Cheers, Andy

  6. I started playing at age 13 in 2003. I asked my mum and dad for a drumkit for Christmas after having played a bit of g**tar and knowing I wasn't really made out for it. They had issues over the size of a drumkit, where I'd keep it, bla bla bla ... So my dad took me to look at bass guitars and after going round a few Glasgow City Centre music shops, we purchased a Westfield P Bass. I thought it was the bees knees and sounded awesome ... Until I heard my teacher's Musicman Stingray. Needless to say, I now play a Stingray.

  7. Hey Basschatters,

    It may be long shot but does anybody have a transcription of Jaco's line on "In France They Kiss On Main Street" from Joni Mitchell's Shadows and Light album?

    I've been looking into it but am a total amateur at transcription.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Cheers, Andy
