That would do it.

Could maybe send the effects loop out to the Apogee if it comes out hot enough. I think you'd be better off spending your money on a DI rather than a mic.

In 2010 I had a couple of job interviews at the end on November. No one had heard of it.

I ordered one but if they are only getting 5 it looks like I might be out of luck.

From the phone for delivery thing doesn't sound like it is in stock at that price though.

I know a chap in Bromley, might be a bit far for you.

[/quote] The whole thing is important. £160 now. What I find is that as the month goes on people get more into giving. I am jsut very good at hammering people early before anyone else gets in and have some very generous and well off people in my acquaintance.

Lovely

Raised £80 so far

Right all shaved up and ready to Mo.

In the morning.

I like the headstock and love the caramel colour available on the 1024x

I'm in

I'd rather see a covers band than a DJ playing the same songs.

I'm the opposite, massively enjoying everything and new opportunities presenting themselves all the time.

[color=#0000FF][b][size=2]Higher Quality[/size][/b][/color][b][size=2]----Since years ago, our Custom Shop has been a "dream factory" producing all kinds of guitar copies from top players of each time. We dare not say our copies are as good as originals, but they are more attractive in price. The craftsmen in our Custom Shop are all known worldwide for their artistry in making guitars that range from the fine to the fantastic. Whether they're building a new custom instrument from the ground up or modifying an existing one, their best is the best. [/size][/b]

I listened and thought 1 was the best. Then I read what they were after so no bias. I thought it had a clarity that the others didn't have, not brightness some upper mids maybe.

The overall standard of live music in the USA is higher than here. I've yet to see a really stinking band in either New York or Nashville.

[quote name='norvegicusbass' timestamp='1383131995' post='2260508']he chord tone thing seems to imply that there are favourable notes to play for every chord and notes that should be avoided or else used sparingly as ghost notes or passing notes, have I got that right? Now I can play any variation of the favourable notes and it will "fit" so to speak the chord that is being played. Something like memorising patterns for every chord and messing around with the order instinctively. Is that right? So have those players who are supremely able to improvise simply committed to memory a series of patterns that they fall back on when they know what chord is being played? This I know is a simplistic way of looking at it but have I got the gist? [/quote] That is exactly the theory. The good thing is that patterns can mean several things. either shapes on the fretboard, the actual number of steps between notes, note names, etc. etc. Knowing all of those is going to make you more fluent, but jsut having fretboard shapes gets you 80% of the way. I think order of emphasis of certain notes is chord tones (notes in the actual chord) scalar tones (the ones in the scale but not in the chord) Chromatic (the others) So over F major you could play nothing but F - A - C (Root, 3rd, 5th) and support the music perfectly.

Forget modes, chord tones is really straight forward. Each chord is made up of some notes. In blues you generally use the what is called the dominant 7 chord. So a 12 bar blues in A would be A7, D7, E7 (I, IV, V or 1, 4, 5). The A7 is made up of A - C# - E - G (1 - 3 - 5 - b7) or 5th fret of the E string, 4th fret of the A string, 7th fret of the A string, 5th fret of the D string. I'm sure that is very familiar if you jam the blues already. If you take the last note off that and just use A - C# - E that will be an A chord. So you should now by removing a note from what you already know, be able to jam on a few more chords.

Are you trying to be a bass player or soloist on these other progressions? Do you knwo the chord tones to the chords you are trying to jam over?
