i highly reccomend you put your 400 quid away, you can get a lovely bass for 120 quid brand new... delivered to your door the next day... [url="http://www.gear4music.com/Bass_Guitars/Peavey_Bass_Guitars/Peavey_Millennium_BXP4_Bass_Trans_Blacksefv_6.html"]http://www.gear4music.com/Bass_Guitars/Pea...lacksefv_6.html[/url] i've just purchased one of these and the neck is so slim, so getting back in to playing won't be difficult and the jazz style pickups give a awesome sound and its really light weight so no suffering for your art...

it arrived today, after only ordering it yesterday evening, and first test run i was nursing a semi- OMG, may only have cost me £120 but my god its fantastic, also my first active bass... More Details: Genuine quilt maple top adds a stunning look to any of the four available finishes. The hard rock maple neck has a silky smooth satin finish and a great feeling action that plays superbly. Peavey's string through body design increases the amount of sustain and is not a feature you would normally find on a bass in this price range. To top it off there are two "J" type humbucking pickups with choice electronics to insure versatile and flexible sound quality for live or studio gigs. You'll be blown away by the result of this beautiful bass. Peavey Millennium BXP4 Bass Features 34 inch scale 4-string Hard rock maple neck with rosewood fretboard Basswood body with quilt top String-thru-body Two J-style, hum-canceling pickups Finish: Trans Black [attachment=11472:01_08_08_1749.jpg]

at the moment, i'm more into my heavier stuff, slipknots new song, stone sour, soil, avenged sevenfold, and strangely pinball wizard, mind you probably because i know it aint the hadest song to play but i was happy when i managed it,

i feel that the general consenses is that, as already stated there are arse holes wierdo's nice people and strange people all over the world, but i feel most of these judgements come from first impressions of the people that we stereotype under said catagories... i.e Waiter/ess: good evening sir/madame can i help you? You: yes i'd like a table please... Waiter/ess: please right this way... now that would give the first impression that the waiter/ess was very polite ad generally a nice person, but what you don't know is that perhaps this person is actually very violent and abusive and is putting on a forced set of manners... example 2: Post office worker: yeah, what you want? you: i'd like to collect my pension please... POW: *sigh* right ok, here fill this out... on first oppinions said POW would be seen as perhaps an arse hole or just maybe short on manners but what you don't know is that maybe said person has had a bad day and is feeling down and didn't mean to take it out on you... this i feel is where prejudice and stereotypes which cause this categorising trend seems to have come from, by only judging on what we first see, we undoubtly make a comment or think "oh what a nice man/woman" or "god what an arse hole" and on the whole strange bassists subject, i feel tis our duty to be so as to try and brake the "stereotype" that bassists are the quiet ones who stand at the back and get on with it... *all done* *edited to retain the word arse...*

i've only a month ago put a new set of rotosounds swing bass 66... 45-105 strings on my bass, but was reading in another string related thread that some one boils there strings i was intrigued as to what this would do to the strings, being only a year in to my bass playing, i feel i've acheived quite a bit, but have only gone through one change of strings, and was wondering what would boiling them do... i only ask as i was beginning to suffer from the coarseness of my strings, would boiling them soften them up a bit... or would it be jus easier to get some nickel, strings, as i mostly play fingerstyle... thankyou for any replies TT

[quote name='chris_b' post='236234' date='Jul 10 2008, 01:07 AM']Rock and roll was a black slang term for sex from the 20's![/quote] So does that hense mean that the term or phrase, Sex drugs and Rock and Roll actually = Sex drugs and Sex??
-
"This is all grossly simplified of course." thankyou.... ok so basically all music stems from the black music of the era... interesting, sorry but i'd like to make this a full on debate i'd like to get everyones views on it... so if i took some jazz and played it with distortion or got my brother (our guitarist) to play it on his guitar with effects then it could turn from Jazz to Rock??
-
i see i've never heard of it.... but i'd still like to carry this on further and discover the origins of where this term came from... Jazz/Blues is the core of all music... i know it's a wide spread "genre" but surely something like lets say Slipknot or Bullet for my valentine couldn't have come from Jazz or Blues... for one Slipknot have a very varied arangement of instruments they have a drummer a percutionist two guitarists (i think) a bassist a "DJ" mixer fella and a keyboardist and vocalist if i remmember rightly... surtely it can't be true...
-
but when we say stems what does it actually mean... what sort of progression does or would the music of gone through to go from say Blues to Rock... this is what confused me how can you go from one to anohter, was it the way things were played in one and were copied in another or was it the structure of the music??
-
My Grandad once told me that all music stems from Jazz now i listened to all sorts of music in my young life (17 years) and well to be honest i can't see where he was coming from... because jazz sounds completely different to say metal or rock, even Rap and R n B or am i missing something... can anyone care to shed any truth on this fact that was spouted from my (i think senile) grandfather.... god rest his soul....
-
for me it entriely depends on the pattern and speed... for me i try to imagine my bass lines as shapes and if i can make it a shape then i can normally get it fairly easyily... right now i'm experiemting more with open stringed notes and so it's breaking up my technique these take longer for me to learn...

thats what i love... this place is great if you don't know some one then theres some one to educate you... tarr Bilbo!! second thoughts i've just listened to some stuff on you tube... not really my sort of thing nor did it grab me... sorry bilbo

would you scorn me if i said i didn't have a clue who you're talking about??

Amp - Everything on full bar the volume! Bass - Everything on full (tone and volume) Style - Harsh and quick fingerstyle Strings - Status Rotosound steels, (prefer nickels cos their kinder to my fingers, but had none in stock) Distortion - None... hate the stuff and i think i like my tone infact yeah i do it's just really boomy... but controlled boom through the amp.... how ever it's clear so i can and the audience can hear the change overs....
