a little bit of distortion (gentle, warm kind, not overdrive or fuzz) might 'lift' the line too.

what about Jackson/Charvels? That is, if you don't looking like you're about to go postal.

OR you could try setting up a bass a to C instead of E to G? A bit excessive, but a great approach to fretless.

I can recommend the Tone Hammer too, it's a really flexible piece of kit with some great, great tones at your disposal.

Looks like Green Alsation has just outed himself as a 'chorus-whore' .

Hi all, I sold Tolas my Dave Hall VT2 on here, and he was a pleasure to deal with. His English is vastly superior to my Portugese (I know 3 words, one of which is unrepeatable in polite company) and the transaction went without a hitch. Deal with confidence with Tolas. Cheers, Paul

I know some 4-tringers who get away with it by using an octave pedal, that [i]does[\i] tie you to one particular spot on the stage though. Mine's a five and I'm very happy with it - it's right for me and what I do, but that might not be right for you.

Epi semi. Naughty...

In Doddy's extended absence I feel compelled to disapprove.

I've had the CE2B and a CEB3 many moons ago. The Ce2B was lovely and clear, but didn't play well with active basses. The CEB3 has the advantage of being able to select the frequency at which the chorus effect comes in, but I seem to remember it being a very good unit. My absolute favourite though has to be the EBS Unichorus - it does everything a chorus should, and also has the ability to blend the effect with the clean bass sound. It's got a pretty good flanger on it too.

thanks for the advice guys and gals, I've just pulled the trigger on an Aguilar Tone Hammer DI, so I'm looking at changing the live setup anyway. I'm starting to think I might be a little bit impulsive...

I liked it. It genuinely raised a smile.

No problem with that at all, Peaveys will play on their side, in a house fire, halfway down a shark, in an air disaster etc... they're pretty much bombproof.

ah well, chuff all happens in Ramsbottom so no famous musicians, though some of the local BBC news presenters occasionally potter about the town. But where are my manners? Welcome on board Emily.

I tried to resist, but she got the better of me. Great bassline and a nice, sultry vocal. Bring back sleeper. [media]http://youtu.be/LcdA2ynLh4c[\media] OK, hijack over, as you were.

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1325894356' post='1489677'] I was asked by a mate whose rock band I`d left if I fancied auditioning for an indie/punk type band who were looking for a bassist. I`d been gigging for about 4 years solidly to the point where I`d left his band, and was relishing not being in a band at the time, as it meant being able to go to the pub every night. Turns out the band was Echobelly. [/quote] Erm, I'd call that a lucky escape. Shame it wasn't Sleeper, with the delicious Louise Wener.
