Hmm! I wonder if this is a VM model thats been priced up wrong? It certainly feels better made that the affinity basses.

It appears that the guitarists and drummer were wearing cans. They didnt want leakage on the drum track. It went OK, I will have another listen when the guitars are down and see if I want to redo some parts. But recording on computer bits can be edited copied, pasted or even quantized, so I,m not that bothered.

Had an interesting day. While I was away on holiday in sunny Australia, my band started work on a demo for my covers band. Luckily the singer has a studio in his garage (Yes I know) But I didnt have a clue that they had started work in my absence. The drummer had laid down 7 songs with the other guys without anything else being recorded. Today I go to overdub bass only to find I have nothing but a drum track to follow. They seem to think the bass should be done before the guitars. I agree to an extent, but I feed off the guitars and drums in a live situation. So with the singer giving me cues, I done 7 bass parts in 2 hours!! Not a very enjoyable experience for an old git of 48 The songs: ARE YOU GONNA GO MY WAY- KRAVITZ FEEL LIKE MAKING LOVE- B COMPANY CHILDREN OF THE REVOLUTION- T REX ARE YOU READY - LIZZY OVERDOSE - ACDC ZIGGY STARDUST - BOWIE BORN TO BE WILD - STEPPENWOLF

Anyone know where these are made? I had a go on this earlier today and loved it! Well put together with excellent sound and a neck straight as a die. I thought they were Chinese but I,m sure this was Indonesian.

I picked up a 11 year old Squier P last year for a good price. Once I set it up and played it, I was really surprised at the quality. I replaced the white pickguard with a tort one and put in a SD SPB1 and chrome covers with tugbar and it looks like an old 60,s one from a distance!

Maybe MDP might buy it, and convert it!

[quote name='bluesparky' timestamp='1366359491' post='2051347'] How does the rock back thing work? Are they the original tracks or high quality covers (I've never played rock band / guitar hero). [/quote] Yea, all original. IIRC, they had some trouble with the beatles rock band, as the bass and drums were on the same track and were digitally seperated.

The best ones are the mock tweed ones, they are top quality!

I recently bought a fender bass combo fron DV so I dont know why they stopped selling guitars!

About 6 -8 months. My first band did a lot of Jam covers including The bitterest pill and funeral pyre with the Beatles taxman thrown in! On a Westone thunder 1 from my mates mums littlewoods catalogue at 20ppw

What are you trying to sell??

The Indonesian Squiers are not too bad. The current Vintage Modified range are well respected on here.

[quote name='andydye' timestamp='1365459675' post='2040013'] You mean the markbass one? [/quote] No I think its a generic one that sits on the top of a combo and the neck rests in it. The body rests on the floor.

I remember reading about a stand you could rest your guitar on, which attached to your amp. Can anyone tell me what they are called??

John Mc Vies' job in Fleetwood Mac will suit me.

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1365106428' post='2035525'] As I understand it, it is a legal requirement for mains-powered portable kit (e.g. bass amps!) to come with a UK mains lead. (There is an exemtion for 'bathroom appliances like shavers and toothbrushes). [/quote] Obviously its not a well known legal requirement then! Still, DV247 had a replacement lead at my front door at 8.30 the following morning so top marks to them.

I bought a Swift Stratocaster copy a few years ago. The frets were so sharp and poorly installed they cut my hands. It was totally unplayable. I sold it on ebay for parts and made more than I bought it for!!

You will save a few quid too, buying online.
