  1. If you feel it the crowd feels it! Its taken a fair while but now im confident on stage, Ill make sure im in some sort of larger than life pose when playing little fills or something, and people notice! plus, anything above the 7th fret is "Woah, I didnt know you could do that!" So basically, Play riffs that you could play between 1st and 4th frets on 4 strings all on the E string and watch the comments roll in!

  3. but thats like saying i predict a mole on the hottest woman in the worlds lower back. In the scope of things, i just dont care. haha.
  4. i seriously dig that! and its near me! we'll see what happens to the price!
  5. [b]Ibanez EDA905[/b] Humbucker at the Pbass pickup position and Piezo pickups ont saddles (Great for pick playing grind, another reason she needs to go - i cant play with a pick!) Nice wide string spacing, This is pretty subjective, i love it because its been my first five, and with other fives ive played ive found the strings to simply be to close together for comfortable finger playing, I'd much rather have a slightly wider neck and have strings not dissimilarly spaced to that of a four. but like i said, depends what your juice is. Shes definatly not new, But a very safe 8/10 condition wise. Comes with a locked Di-Marzio strap (very cool IMO) i recommend paying for a proper setup somewhere! this could be such a brilliant bass after a full going over! (not to say its a bad one! but you catch my drift, i dont want to sell it saying it plays like butter when although it suits some, i think the majority of finger pluckers will find it a little challenging) Here's a google photo of an identical one; Annnd a less clear one of my actual bass with rig. Shall we say [b]300[/b] [b]Cort C4 LTD[/b] My first "real" bass, And i love it to bits! but needs must as im sure we're all aware. The finish all round on this bass is suberb, Walnut top and wenge neck are both beautiful. ever so slight buckle rash on the back, but it hasnt penetrated through the finish and is only visible at an angle. Two MightyMite Soapbar pickups and two band EQ give plenty of tone, Also boasts a pull/passive pot which is quite handy should a battery go or you want a flat sound for whatever reason. I can quite genuinly say, this is one of the nicest "feeling" basses ive ever played. The action runs so low across the whole neck should you desire, the wenge neck never gets to sticky, nor to glossy. the pickups are big enough to have varying anchor spots for various tones, but not so large that they get in the way of slapping. and lets be honest, it is pretty damn sexy! [b]250?[/b] If anyone would like mor epictures or more information feel free to ask! Take care. Stephen
  6. thanks man! I still cant get over how easy this thing is to move about (well, in the scope of things!) and i never got round to thanking Alex for his explanation on the weight, thankyou!
  7. Finally! a picture for you all! Still hugely impressed. And my new bass is in there aswell, just my mule to go now!
  8. Finally a (very poor) picture of my setup! Not bad for just turned 17 if i do say so myself
  9. they are discontinued now. And if they all came with a similar setup to the one i recieved, im not surprised!
  10. i would have to disagree, the 3.2 run through the 410pro 4ohm cab simply wasnt loud enough. tone was fine for the price your paying, But this thing Ab'd with an ashdown mag electric blue 180 was of very similar volume, if not more in favour of the ashdown (its a shame im not for the ashdown tone!)
  11. yup! that was the one i think, it was about 270 with 15 quid postage. Needed a huge amount of setting up when i got it, and i think a neck shims in order. But she sounds brilliant! Ive never played a Piezo instrument but on the G and D strings its somehting else! Blend in just enough of the normal pickup to add the lack of lows and shazam! aha. you have PM parker, or will in a moment!
  12. ding! EDA 905. Full report to follow. and ill dig something out for Parker Muse
  13. <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/UgPr4HVmz8s"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/UgPr4HVmz8s" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> can someone make that work? Bobs gone to the trouble of making a short video "tour" of the bass. Looks f'kin awsome. what a guy!
  14. [quote name='EdwardHimself' post='53940' date='Sep 1 2007, 05:24 PM']a luthite? oh, has it got a luthite body?[/quote] Score!
  15. I thought it was something to do with having a better balance when sat down? dont ask me where i heard that, grapevine methinks.
  16. Okay! I may have been a little off target with one of my guesses! The bass is actually made in [b]korea[/b] another clue... hmmm. If you belonged to a clan of Luthiers what would you be?
  17. haha (i wish!) But thats not japanese is it?
  18. i think the best way to get old school flat tone, is to have old flats! I have some pretty dead roto's lying around if you want em.
  19. No correct answers so far! here's a clue. think sparkle, think blue.
  20. [quote name='ahpook' post='52046' date='Aug 28 2007, 10:36 PM']thanks i've never played with a keyboard player before...[/quote] i play with two, There nothing to be afraid of! aha Although, id make sure you know how to get some real middy sounds out of your bass, they might sound ugly on there own, but its the only way to cut with keys. good luck!
  21. [quote name='john_the_bass' post='52043' date='Aug 28 2007, 10:33 PM']is it animal, vegetable or mineral?[/quote] Definatly Animal
  22. No, not four string. that should put a few ideas to rest!
  23. Im not going to answer any for a while, give other people a chance to get in on it! aha. I think the last question was borderline against my rules anyway
