cheers for the correction guys, I've certainly never needed one.

Scrunchies are WaY better on a bass than on a hairdo - they're quite the sartorial faux pas.

Good for you, pro tools is the BALLS.* * Other DAWs are available.

Didn't boss (or somebody) do a 'bassmaker' pedal - you've got to play the smaller, less good guitar and the pedal will generate a low note in response to your harmony line.

'Lateralus' by Tool.

and a Rush anthology in the background too, good man.

Score, marry yourself quick!

Yup, the other idiot bassist should be ringing Panic Music in Cambridgeshire to fix your ampeg. THey're not cheap, but it'll be done properly and maybe he'll learn from the experience. also, punch him in the throat.

Personally I'd go for USB (firewire if you can), but then again, I'm on a macbook, so internal cards aren't really an option. I use an MBox to run Protools, but it can also be used for Cubase, Logic, Sonar etc... Lots of really useful features and good quality AD conversion too. Protools ain't cheap though... It also depends how many channels you want to record at once. MBoxes will only do 2 channels, so if you need more than that then I'd probably look elsewhere. Loads of people I know have made positive noises abut the focusrite saffire stuff - cheaper than protools too. HTH Paul.

and gone.

[smug] I've thought long and hard for some minutes about which particular piece of kit I regret selling, and I don't regret any sales. They were all sold for a reason [/smug] I DO however, regret not buying a fretless Wal for £700 roughy ten years ago; I was but a poor student at the time...

Stop it. Stop it now...

Gone, all gone.

erm, get off basschat and start playing them?

My knob never really goes above 'half'. I wish I could find somewhere big enough to push it all the way up.

yowser, that was cheap. Well done that bidder.

Ugly as sin, overpriced and no bids? What's the world coming to?

"have you got a spare..." insert the usual suspects here - lead / strap / amp / pick / kettle lead / cockwang. Winds me up no end. Grrrr also: "this is suchabody, she's my new girlfriend. I said she could come to rehearsal with me" Translation: "Despite being completely egocentric, feckless, ugly and wretched I've finally found somebody who's interested in me as much as I am. For the duration of the practice I'm going to be looking at her and pouting instead of concentrating so that you all know I recently got laid - this will entirely invalidate the whole session and be a waste of everybody's time so why don't we all go home and I can bump uglies again. Until she finds out what I'm really like and dumps me." Oooh, we do like to moan don't we?

I'm using the Behringer BSY600 synth bass pedal at the moment for holding drones. The switch is a bit hit and miss, but it'll do things that the Boss SYB5 won't. It also feels like it fell out of a cracker - but not too far.

Erm, a mixture of up-strokes and down-strokes. Getting coat.

I had the DiMarzios, and they were really quiet ( as regards noise), and really nice. Slightly oversized, so I had to chisel the routings a couple of mm's to slot them in. Some people have reported that these don't have as mush 'bite' as other replacement pups, so that might be a good thing for you, can't say I noticed all that much of a drop in the punch of my bass, but ti did sound an awful lot better than the stock squier pups. HTH.
