  1. It's horses for courses really. Some band I've played in didn't need them (mainly covers bands), so I didn't take them. All of my 'original' bands - ever - have benefitted from a healthy dose of [i]tasteful [/i]effects. Mainly octave, some sort of dirt, filter or synth pedal. I generally always take FX to a rehearsal, but don't feel that I absolutely must use them all of the time. That would make me some sort of guitarist, and I don't want that.
  2. Loads of people have had this warning - something to do with eBay and hotmail, both of which were open at the time. I don't know about viruses and that - I'm in my ivory tower playing on a Mac....
  3. It will get easier. The progresion that you've quoted is a I-VI-II-V (but slightly altered to make chord II major, instead of minor 2nd time round), and that's pretty much as 'standard' a progression as you're likely to see. It might seem a bit bewildering at first, but once you've nailed this you can play a whole lot of tunes.
  4. Cheers for that, I've never even tried to exploit a blackhole (that I'm aware of), so I'll look into that.
  5. Probably, they stink too. I mean [i]REALLY STINK![/i]
  6. And replied. More photos up to show the grain / colour of the wood. I've also discovered some small chips and a hairline crack in the laquer/paint under the neck join, but these won't affect the neck join or the playability.
  7. True dat. also try playing the chords as arpeggios in different places on the neck, then look at playing those arpeggios starting on different notes (e.g. the third and then the fifth). This will increase your knowledge of not just the chord tones available, but the fingerboard too. HTH
  8. Yeah, I looked at that too. PC only though. The Sansamp PSA plugin in protools does a really similar job though. That's protools only though, but it does work on a Mac.
  9. Love it. When's the album released?
  10. [quote name='WHUFC BASS' timestamp='1254137655' post='610750'] You'll all hate it I promise... [/quote] Just discovered this thread. LOVE that basstone WHUFC. Lovely and dirty.
  11. Kudos to wayne for doing this. I've been roped into doing bass duties for WWRY for my college in march. The performing arts lecturer gave me a copy of the soundtrack to listen to to 'gen up' on queen stuff. I played it in the car on the way home. apologies to the guy in the car 100yards behind me in the outside lane who recently had a near miss with a small 'flying saucer' on the A56. The soundtrack is absolutely dire. I'm still doing the show, but like Wayne, It's not going to be a labour of love.
  12. My four year old can get all of those sounds out of my bass simply by running toy trains up and down the neck. also he's never had a seizure / convulsion whilst doing it. Win.

  14. Looks very nice fellas, thanks for doing this. Just need a couple of days to get used to it, and I'm laughing.

    SOLD

    Hi, up for grabs is my EHX BMS. It's the old 24v version and comes with PSU and original box. Sold on the bay.
  17. Now selling separately, SVP PRO preamp (US made 'blackface' model) £250 SVP 1500 (stupidly loud US made mosfet power amp) £200 - comes with a free rack case (has a damaged handle, but will still protect the amp during transit). OR the original offer of £400 for the pair still stands. These prices are exclusive of P&P. They can be couriered for roughly £15 to mainland UK, or collect from just north of Manchester.
  18. [quote name='Ou7shined' post='1369034' date='Sep 11 2011, 01:50 AM']Just spotted this one on our FB. (last nights gig) [/quote] Nice Pingray - very tasty!
  19. Lots of interest, but nothing firmed up yet, might consider splitting these, but they were designed to run together so I'd rather sell as one lot.
  20. It's Friday, Friday, Friday (bump).
  21. it's all true - it's not just technique over taste, some great music too. Salutes to Andy!
