I wear clothes that fit (for the most part, my jeans are a bit tight at the waist to be fair) but in all honesty, I have more important things to worry about than my appearance. There's something about seeing bands go on stage all dressed in clothes that they aren't 100% comfortable in and dressed the exact same as the other members that I find a little embarrassing and off-putting. I only ever go see bands that I like now so it may be a part of that but I think if the music is good then why should I give a toss whether the guitarists jeans match the singers t-shirt?

To throw a spanner in the works here. Out of those two I think I would go for the Ziracote.

I have to duck very slightly when going through some doors (not all mind!) And I am about 5'11.

Beauty of a bass Kev! I just wish they didn't come with the P pickup or else I wouldn't have considered shifting mine! Easily the lightest bass I've owned as well, even with my current bass weighing 8lb 1oz!

I've only ever used the MXR Bass Comp but I love it and have no desire to change it.

It looks proportionally off to me. I think because of the vast space between the bridge and the bottom of the actual bass. Personally I'd be going for a second hand Warwick at that price.

Great except from getting my only hoodie nicked. I did royally bugger up one of the chordal sections however nobody noticed...I think.

[quote name='molan' timestamp='1416687846' post='2612701'] If you send us exact measurements we can try and set up a bass as close as possible to the same size and measure for you Edit - we did this recently for someone with an extended Alembic and discovered that the only thing that worked was a Hiscox abs case. [/quote] Not exactly sure who it was I spoke to but you guys also made sure they would fit my Dingwall! And even measured strings for me. great service. edit to answer Ambient : Mine is still as it came from Bass Gear.

I use one of the Vertigo bags. I bought initially as it was all I could really find that would fit the Dingwall in it but it's a great bag. There is great neck support inside and its about as sturdy as I imagine you can do without making it extremely heavy. I generally take it to college with me 3 times a week on public transport and have no complaints.

Seal of approval from anybody is a good thing in my mind Douglas! Thanks for the nice comment I also do know what you mean about the low end but I found when I added any extra it got a bit too muddy within the mix...but then I am totally useless at this whole recording/mixing malarky!

[quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1416528541' post='2611299'] I enjoyed that, only on lappy speakers but the song is great and from what I heard it won't need too much production work . [/quote] Glad you enjoyed

So my band finally got something recorded. Although it is just a demo so the production isn't the greatest! anyways, here's the tune! - https://soundcloud.com/goon-and-the-kings/dark-side All comments, criticism and general sarcasm are appreciated! If you liked the tune there's a Facebook page made (with bugger all liked as we don't even have a logo yet! (how professional...))! https://www.facebook.com/goon.and.the.kings Cheers

Heard them on guitar and sounded good but I would imagine (as Heminder said) it would suck out a lot of the low end. I'm yet to use a distortion other than the Darkglass ones that don't actually suck out low end.

There isn't but as Telebass said, the mobile version of the site is is great. I just have it as my homepage on dolphin browser (android and Apple) and it may as well act as an app!

Haven't heard anything bad about them and although only played one very briefly I found the neck to be very chunky (5 stringer) but the sound was good and it felt nice except from the chunky neck

Sigur Rós - Takk... Big contrast from the stuff I was listening to last night (Heart of a Coward).

Also cannot be unwatched. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzC4hFK5P3g

Had a Lakland 5501 with nordstrand pickups and I agree with you on the low B remark. The B on the 5501 is one of the clearest I've heard (beaten by Dingwall and the odd Warwick).

Doesn't do much for me either I'm afraid. Playing is good and such just leaves me feeling dry.

[quote name='sbrag' timestamp='1415790405' post='2603739'] Hi cameron. Someone else had said about 5 strings and possibly stringing it BEAD. Ive got an unused set of 5 strings which I'll stick in the case if anyone wants to do this. Steve [/quote] I don't think this would be possible for me unfortunately but I think for others it may be, even if just for a few songs and not necessarily a full set

Formed my current band -mostly- through Joinmyband. Had a lot of timewasters and complete morons on there but eventually it's paid off and found a group of folk I gel with musically and socially.
