    no toolshed? where do you keep your erm, you know....[i]things[/i]?

    Don't worry, you just can't do it [i]yet[/i]. Singing and playing bass at the same time is notoriously difficult; it just takes time, patience and electric-shock therapy.

    [quote name='Johnnyc' timestamp='1345017385' post='1772268'] Mate I'm liking this, btw, what patch cables & power are you using? Proper nice and tidy [/quote] Them look like "George L's' to me, and yes, they are neat and tidy - really good quality too.

    Wow! I've got one of these for my acoustic bass guitar. And yes, I [i]am[/i] a pimp. "Ya Damn Right" bump.

    I haven't got a dog. My cat makes a quick exit once I start playing. [i]next door's[/i] dogs are a different matter though.... They do not, not, not, like the low end.

    have a look on eBay?

    Is it still considered DIY if you're having one made? thought not [/pedantry]

    the single best bass chords book I've found is this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Chord-Bassics-Compact-Reference-Library/dp/0825610583 By mucho respected player Jonas Hellborg. Really easy to follow diagrams and a logical layout. £3.83 on Amazon. If you don't find it useful I'll reimburse you!

    [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1342643858' post='1738678'] Dave Hall VT1EQ, bass in one end, iPod into the line input and headphones at my kitchen table. Simples [/quote] OR failing that an EHX headphone amp and earbuds. Not as nice as the VT1 though...

    This thread is useless without sound!

    Bump for price drop - now £50 posted.

    I'm moving on my Ernie Ball flatwound 5 string set. 45s and not really been used as often as I thought. These fit a bass with 4 over and 1 under tuners, which means that the G string is too short for a standard 5 in-line tuner headstock. PM me for more info - I could even measure it if you like... £25 posted.

    New Rush CD

    paul_5 replied to ead's topic in General Discussion

    [quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1344892044' post='1770830'] I got it when the Classic Rock pack came out & I still haven't listened to it yet. [/quote] Oooh, do yourself a favour. It's brilliant.

    I couldn't find one that wasn't an obnoxious, self absorbed arse-hole, so I learnt to sing. Guess what? Now I'm an obnoxious, self absorbed arse-hole (but i play bass too!), result.

    DIY Effects

    paul_5 replied to JackLondon's topic in Effects

    Just did a sizeable order from Dr Tweek this evening - amazingly it seems to have cost less than half of what it would at Craplins - and the components are in stock! New trem and envelope filter pedals this weekend...

    Slap effects advice

    paul_5 replied to gub's topic in Effects

    Compressor and (if you [i]really[/i] want the '80's sound) a touch of chorus should do the job nicely. I like a tiny amount of delay or if I'm feeling saucy, some reverse reverb from an Alesis MidiVerb 3 - Nice.

    +1, wires come out at the G string end.

    I've just had a year without a guitar and have found that I am reliant on it for songwriting. Composing instrumental music is easy without one, but I find that I'm knackered when it comes to writing songs without a guitar. That's just me though. New guitar should arrive next week...

    If you're after a 'Bloodsugarsexmagick' bass sound then I'm afraid it's none of the above. Best save up for a Wal.
