yeah, the OC2 doesn't deal well with anything lower than 'A', but then it [i]is[/i] a guitar pedal. What it does to notes above that 'A' though is just lovely

I play in both. My originals 'band' consists of a small pool of very good players to record my compositions, so it's not [i]really[/i] a band, but it's good fun.

Cool, I love it when a plan comes together!

Sterling work (as always) Scott. [quote name='TommyK' timestamp='1350647166' post='1841687'] This should be played on a loop in all music shops selling bass guitars.....IMHO!! [/quote] I thought it already was, just not this tight...

Just had a listen to their EP samples. The brass need to play in tune, and the guitarist needs to play in time. I'm out.

Mine's got more knobs than a local election: [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd471/paul_510/dbx_1066.jpg[/IMG] I only use one channel though.

depends which sort of 'metal'. For some kinds of speed metal/thrash you'll probably need something that sounds like a jar of wasps through a telephone speaker...

[size=6]ALSO, STOP SHOUTING ABOUT IT!!!!!!![/size]

Thanks for sharing, nice site too!

The little blighters alter all of my pedal board settings too. Something should be done about the influx of this diminutive imaginary pest. Bloody fairy folk coming over here and taking liberties with our kit, stealing our plectrums and sh*t. Hanging's too good for 'em.

More like 'Mongo' [media]http://youtu.be/28khv-BydeY[/media]

Brand New Heavies too, I think Andrew Levy (their bassist) plays on the first Jamiroquai album too. I'd also consider Herbie Hancock's 'Headhunters' essential listening for burgeoning funkateers.

I've just parted with the nicest playing 5 I ever had. I've got a fretless 4 now and a fretted 'bitsa' in my shed that needs tinkering with / spraying / setting up. Both are 4s. I've played 5 strings almost exclusively for roughly 17 of my 20 years as a bassist and found myself just not using the 'window rattler' any more.

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1350164436' post='1835449'] ...and just get a f***ing P- Bass. [/quote] (with a MM humbucker near the bridge... and a Jazz bass neck).

Got a 2 band on my fretless and it's actually pretty good. Tempted by a 3 band...

I never hot swap anything; ALWAYS turn phantom power off before changing microphones! ;-)

If I'm depping I'll usually get CDs in the post (or digital equivalent) and maybe one rehearsal to top and tail stuff. Most of the time though any diffferent arrangements are hastily mapped out during soundcheck. Often I'll have to make my own charts, but TBH, most cover bands play the same sort of stuff, so once you've done a couple then you start to build up a library. £50 for all that is a bit optimistic though.

[quote name='lefrash' timestamp='1350038615' post='1833795'] I have an LH500, and I've never once had any sort of grind from it at all. Its easily the cleanest amp I've ever used. [/quote] True dat, if you've got some distortion then plug your bass into the 'active' socket (assuming that you don't want distortion, that is), occasionally on board Pre's can overdrive the tube in the preamp stage, but only very rarely. One curious thing about these amps is that the EQ section has a 'built in' mid scoop with all three knobs set to 12 o'clock. I think to get a (nearly) transparent sound from the amp the bass has to be at 10 o'clock, mid on full and treble all the way off IIRC.
