why 2 necks? the sound of equal amounts of neck+bridge on a J is awesome imo am guessing you might find the bridge a bit harsh and burpy but used in moderation mixed in with the neck it really does add that bit of extra definition the other issue apart from wiring is pole spacing - a J matched pair will not be identical size/spacing - there is approx total 4-5mm difference in pole/string positioning between the neck and bridge

terry bozzio's hi-hat bill brufords snare not the biggest fan of slapping but marcus millers slap has a distinctive ring to it seems to be independent of technical skill too id say - david bowies sax tone is always instantly recognisable

what on earth have commersons dolphins got to do with pino palladino?

[quote name='KiOgon' timestamp='1340880296' post='1710860'] Dolphins? Killer whales more like [/quote] thats what i thought wehen i first saw them but they are dolphins - peale's i believe [url="http://www.flickr.com/photos/andypollard/5512090728/"]http://www.flickr.com/photos/andypollard/5512090728/[/url] - they do have killer whales out there but i guess the whales only come in that close if there is a tasty seal snack at the waters edge

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1340878720' post='1710826'] So in summary it's a success? [/quote] well that depends on your viewpoint and your agenda edit - sorry forgot to add my worthless opinion ... overproduced tosh

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1340876213' post='1710757'] Yeah! Go and have your stupid frigging bank argument in Off Topic. Thhhhpp!! [/quote] indeed thats exactly why i posted the other thread so we could all have a good old whinge and then come to this thread for calm reflection here's a nice picture of some dolphins which i took earlier. 22 years earlier to be more precise

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1340875643' post='1710736'] Is a fine of £290m a slap on the wrist for Barclays? [/quote] imo yes it is - they are prepared to pay this much out for their top bonuses so its hardly going to hurt them is it - please fell free to contribute to the barclays thread

yes the solos can be quite challenging start off with an easy teenage new york version type solo or something a bit more musically accessible - 'watermelon in easter hay' perhaps then once you got the hang of what he is doing with his solos try perhaps the sheikh yerbouti version of 'yo mama' personally i like the written solo lines as much as franks improv - some of the lines he wrote for steve vai and mike keneally are just staggering and technically way surpassing anything that steve vai has subsequently written for himself imho his influence is profound especially with his ex band members - check out any of mike keneallys solo material and the 'less commercial' vai stuff - one particularly nice solo track is warren cuccurrullo's tribute 'thanks to frank' [url="http://youtu.be/Q5aOXKVD0nU"]http://youtu.be/Q5aOXKVD0nU[/url] unfortunately the solo at 2:02 has been edited and cut short but it gives you the idea that he is total master of the sublime guitar solo (this band line up is pretty amazing too) [url="http://youtu.be/usC2msFdX94"]http://youtu.be/usC2msFdX94[/url]

ok so after everybody has read the news and wondered why numerous banking/trading staff are not being investigated by the serious fraud office (or are they?) and why the FSA have pussied out and given barclays a slap on the wrist that would barely amount to a days wages for the average person ... this should help bring your blood pressure back down to safe levels please feel free to add your own suggestions for calm inducing ideas - even whale songs- but not wales songs if they involve that screechy cerys woman and relax....

[quote name='pietruszka' timestamp='1340818653' post='1710114'] Yeah I had noticed the cost of the rereleases, unnecessarily expensive.
