I,m not bad, certainly not an expert, but I can get by with what I can do. Theres always someone better than me out there.

Are you looking for a small practice amp? Have a look at the Roland cube 30 watt combo.

Wow! didnt John Lennon change drastically in 5 years? I bet he had to update his passport Photo every 6 months!

Ive got one, its not brilliant but I plug the bass in and take a line in from the laptop and I can jam along with whatever i,m working on. It does what I want it do do, but as i said, its not brilliant, and also quiet pricey too!

That Jack White gets everywhere!!

This had the potential to be an [b] [size=3]+++ AWESOME +++ [/size][/b] thread!

Is that the one where a very young Amy Winehouse appears? Wembley 2004?

Maybe you have to set fire to it to get the full effect?

£770 for the most expensive Encore bass in the world!! Luckily no buyers!!

well, Ive reported it. May save some poor sod from being fleeced.

Root fifth octaves were all the rage back then!!

I think I have seen that before On here a while ago. The lettering on the headstock looks wrong, offset countour body on a P bass?

I,m afraid Zappa didnt do anything for me.

[quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1335507536' post='1632230'] Play for free? [/quote] Only once mind you, the other guys in the band are up for it. Its not something I would like to do on a regular basis.

I have recently put together a rock/blues band playing everything from Ac/Dc to ZZ top, via Bad Company and Thin Lizzy. As the band founder, the guys are looking at me to find the gigs, something I have never had to do before!! Can anyone give me the heads up on some venues in and around London, Surrey, Berks and Bucks? I dont mind playing for free at first, just to get a foot in the door. Cheers, Hobbayne.

Were are you based?

Wow! can you take a picture? I would like to see how that looks

I put some S D Vintage SPB1 pups in my Squier without doing anything to the electrics, and they sound excellent!

[quote name='rushbo' timestamp='1334869270' post='1622791'] Fine looking Bass BTW... [/quote] Thanks Rushbo, its just a mid 90's Korean Squier with Seymour Duncan vintage SBP1 pickups, a cheapo tort pickguard and tugbar and F****r logo on headstock.

I kitted out my sunburst Squier P in those lovely shiney covers recently to get that oldey authenticky looke. Gigged it on Saturday, what a disaster! I was all over the place! Nowhere to put me thumb, I was well out of my comfort zone Do any of you guys play with these on? I may give it another crack, but keep yer eyes on the for sale section.

I always used to use rotosound steel strings but now use Ernie Ball nickels. Much easier on fingertips and frets too.
