  1. I’ve got one for my 17 year old iPad- plugs into the headphone jack then plug your bass and headphones into the adaptor and run your software (I use GarageBand on there) - useful practice tool. Mine doesn’t ‘shake’ though!
  2. For me, Ric necks should ideally follow the radius and dimensions of Jazz bass necks. I love everything about the sound of Rics, I just find them too skinny!
  3. Guns in the sky - INXS
  4. Shunt that 'bucker up by the neck joint then we'll talk... 😄
  5. The Wedding List - Kate Bush
  6. Popped my flats back on my p bass (augmented with a mud bucker a la Billy Sheehan) today - got a gig coming up that needs a more ‘vintage’ vibe - and the amount of low end through the ‘bucker is IMMENSE!! Such a huge difference from my usual rounds!!
  7. The Wreckers - Rush
  8. SUCH a great vocalist - check out this track on Hospital Records...
  9. Neither; even Jaco needed four!!
  10. The Greeting Song - RHCP
  11. He kept asking Moon, Townsend and Daltry to pull them!
  12. Glory Box - Portishead
  13. Starf***ers, Inc. NIN
  14. God Hates Us All - SSSSLLLLAAAAAAAYYYYYEEERRRRR!!!!!
  15. Ya Mama - The Pharcyde
  16. Dunno, technically it’s not allowed, but it could be argued that it’s essential; have you ever used an unshielded fuzz pedal? I don’t recommend it!
  17. You're thinking of 'Squirt-it'...
  18. Speed Is The Key - The Sugarcubes
  19. Generally a lower action helps, as does sliding into the note slightly.
  20. Just as a side note - any compressor will add noise to your signal.
  21. When I first started playing fretless I used open strings wherever possible so that I could use it as a reference pitch to determine whether I was in tune or not. As I got more experienced I substituted the open strings for fingered notes for consistency of tone, but it's an exercise that served me well.
  22. Db? Just hit all the black notes and one white note of your choosing!
  23. Nope. I’ve tried, and I can’t. 😄
