    My band used to do a cover of 'Aint No Fun Waiting Round To be A Millionaire' by AC/DC which is really 6 miniutes of a D root note playing 8th notes. I made it a bit more interesting by dropping to the F# and running up to the A by a chromatic scale. Made it a bit more bearable for me.

    A combo has the amplifier and speaker built in together in one unit. The MB 15 is a combo. Valve amps are expensive and heavy, but have a much warmer sound than transister amps like the mb15. Gain is another word for volume.

    Sounds great! Post on here when you get your first gig, Dont know where you are in Bucks, but Denham is only 15 mins up the A 40 from here. I,ve been rehearsing with a new band since October and have currently got 13 songs in the bag and a singer audtioning on monday. Toss up to use the Precision or the Stingray for me!

    I assume its a powerful picked bass on bright rounds a la Bruce Foxton, JJ Burnel or Phil Lynott. My personal syle of bass playing to be honest!

    No smileys?

    Hobbayne posted a topic in Site News

    Where are the smileys gone when posting on my iPad? Or am I doing something wrong here?

    I use my right thumb to anchor, usually on the pickup, and the index and middle fingers to pluck the strings. The other two fingers I just let hang loose or tuck them into my palm. I'm afraid I'm not very disciplined with right hand technique

    I dont see why not? I play all rock numbers with a pick, it gives you more volume. I still play fingerstyle for ballads, reggae etc.
  24. Hobbayne
    How much you reckon it weighs? I had a 77 P bass that tipped the scales at 10lbs.
  25. Hobbayne
    Unless you have a Stingray
