Fair enough Would you like BC members to start saving their egg boxes for you?

[quote name='Wolverinebass' timestamp='1331646032' post='1576454'] Most of the walls and ceiling are now stuffed with either RW3 for the ceilings or RWA45 for the walls. [/quote] Is the number just a difference in the thickness? Why different between the two?

Thats not a bad sound I think I'd want some more of the clean bass in the mix. Sounds like it could get lost with my guitarist pretty easily.

+1 for Dave. Excellent service, product, price and overall experience in general.

Stingray Fender jazz Warwick Or... Shuker I have seen Shuker basses go second hand on this forum for that price and they contain guaranteed awesomeness Seriously check out the market on here, very few transactions go sour and you'll save a tonne!

Metal bassists - What sort of tones are you using?
charic replied to spiderjazz's topic in Bass Guitars
[quote name='spiderjazz' timestamp='1331551955' post='1574493'] Good stuff man, the bass does sit nicely in that while still being audible. Did you record an amp and process afterwards or is it a DI? I do the one man guitarist/bassist/drum programmer as well, here's a quick clip of what my bass tone was like with my old bass, an Ibanez SRX500 [url="http://soundcloud.com/spiderjazz/samuel-l"]http://soundcloud.co...erjazz/samuel-l[/url] I'm looking to get a bit more thump and attack out of my tone though, so hence this thread [/quote] Post EQ DI on the RH450. Barely any changes done at mix time -

[quote name='spiderjazz' timestamp='1331552060' post='1574498'] Also, what gauges are you using? I'm planning on ordering this set [url="http://daddario.com/DADProductDetail.Page?ActiveID=3769&productid=154"]http://daddario.com/...9&productid=154[/url] and either using the BEAD strings, or using BADG.

Caffe Americano in Swansea, Wales... terrible management :(

[quote name='Low End Bee' timestamp='1331549717' post='1574425'] Trouble is... I met a band last year who completely slated a venue we've played a few times something rotten. The venue has a few niggly faults but they're OK people and we had good experiences there and got a few quid out of it. The band were nice people too. I presume they got on each others wrong side or it was a bad day for one/both of them. Anyway. The experience described was a million miles away from what we've experienced there. If I hadn't played the place before and since I would have taken their word and missed out on a good gig. Sometimes it's subjective I guess? [/quote] Then we could have a scoring system instead perhaps? Like with the couriers? -

[quote name='CBbass' timestamp='1331549109' post='1574401'] It's a nice idea but isn't it a little libellous? [/quote] How so? If I knew a place was rubbish to play for I wouldn't send my mates bands there too play. Why shouldn't I discourage/warn them so they can atleast be prepared beforehand? -

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1331548379' post='1574382'] Me too although I use a Blowtorch when I want to turn it up to 11. Oooh nice find. I had a look on their webby but there's not much info on them. How much is it for a 4 string custom set? [/quote] With custom sets of strings you have to order a minimum of two sets. I think it works out around £48 for two sets IIRC. Bulk ordering cuts it down too. All this used to be on their website but I can't find it now! -

I'm using clean signal myself at the moment. One guitarist and programmed drums. I found it just allows me to stick out that little bit more. Also I've found newtone strings to be an absolute godsend. They make me custom sets of strings especially for drop C tuning. I'll have a listen to the recordings when I get a mo but so much of it depends on the guitarists really. If you want to hear my particular sound then follow the link below -

[quote name='gafbass02' timestamp='1331539005' post='1574208'] We need a highly visible blacklist for places like this. [/quote] I was thinking the same. Just a list of bad venues with links to relevant threads. Keep the detail out of the blacklist thread itself. -

[quote name='skej21' timestamp='1331482896' post='1573470'] I'd have accepted if it was from ANYONE other than Line 6. Hype-merchants! [/quote] The Lowdown series of Bass amps had some usable sounds in there (ok there's differing opinions but I always used to get compliments on my sound) The BassPods have some brilliant effects, some not bad modelling The effects pedals for guitar/bass are quite highly regarded and very feature rich The recording interfaces seem to get very good reviews for the price point The higher level of their guitar amps have been on some fairly big names stages and sounded very good All of the above are made to a fantastic build quality level and mostly manage to look good at the same time I have a huge respect for line6 and what they do. They're always trying SOMETHING new rather than following the norm. The effects pedal you can program yourself for example! -

[quote name='crez5150' timestamp='1331304367' post='1571106'] Nice Idea...... but for two subs two mid/high and the desk you're looking at £6k........ you can buy some really nice PA kit for that sort of money. [/quote] But has anyone tried these yet? With the full on kit this does some bloody clever stuff. So can we assume that this isn't "some really nice PA kit for that sort of money"? -
Ha! Nice , shame it's another guitar though!

Good Man! Time to update again

Ofcourse! We should let them know

Actually I saw it when looking at the crystal frets thread and thought it might interest you
