i think its a guild but dunno what model, my local shop has one in

Funnily enough the same thing happened to me recently after something like 17 years playing and I'm not normally a timing case (a few live recordings in the wooden toys link in my sig not too bad timing I hope) but just lately my timing sucks!! I listened back to a take and was mortified, dunno what's happened to me. That said When I redid the take I turned the bass down in the cans which really helped. I think was zoning on too much on the bass rather than the bass In relation to the track.

I always say bass is easy to play, but it's hard to play well!

Not suitable for metally / thrashy / punky stuff (IMO) but superb for blues / jazz / classic rock.

No money changed hands in connection with this product endorsement.

I'm using a gator gbus but I get noise with or without fx through headphones or amp and on all basses unless I touch metal and even then there is still some noise. I shielded all my basses which helped but still buzzy.

My house is really buzzy, im sure its to do with dimmer switches and crappy wiring im sure some of the noise is airbourne, would one of these stand any sort of a chance?

Likewise pm'd re mm

That is the one thing more than anything else in the world that makes me soooooooo angry! It's mainly old school pillocks who trot out that 'feel the bass' tat. I was recently mixed by someone who had once announced to me that the bass should be "below the drums right at the bottom of the track". It really bites my monkey.

Just sold jake an ashtray use it wisely! No probs with this guy happy times one and all!

I do enjoy it, but have found I let myself get sorta labelled as the really fast slap guy, and now I'm getting older I'm really enjoying more groove, but have found the label can be hard to shift. That said I do some pretty average and predictable octave slapping on a song in my funk band 'useless wooden toys' so maybe not as cured as I think I am..

Top buyer sold him my ray with much regret, a flying visit but a safe bet and a top bloke.

it does imddedy, for tis a proper one innit, pics eventually lol,

no sorry

nor me

sorry dude that would leave the body rather hard to shift

I love this colour I had planned to build one from warmoth but it's still really exensive. Roughly how much would o e of those jazzes go for may I ask. I über skint at the mo but still hold a secret plan to build one over a few years using Xmas and bday money as I'm assuming it's still gonna be cheaper than a real one!

thanks dude no interest yet so lookng likely!

Benn has taken my 15" to London with him to swap mate I'll get him to get hold of you can't wait to try it.

that's good to know, well i'm still alive and the shielding has really helped. So just to check it's ok that I wired the earth plate thing to the pot?

why not drop in and say hi!

pssh, more importantly I'm playing with my ozzy tribute band at the reckless engineer near temple meads on sat 21st!

heh me too!

tbh by the time I'd charged for shipping it would cost the same as a new one lol
