  1. I've always liked the thinking behind the p/j combination but usually found the reality a bit disappointing. For me the P pup is suffecient, if I want more mids then I generally look to the eq section on my amp.
  2. Good man. Sounds like one of the better senior moments.
  3. [quote name='Painy' timestamp='1370804155' post='2105813'] Last night remembered I was meant to have learnt Jump by Van Halen 5 minutes before I was due to leave for my gig. Fortunately it only took as long to learn as it did to listen to! [/quote] Good man
  4. [quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1370605476' post='2103315'] I still keep lookin n gassin [/quote] you really should do some buyin
  5. [quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1370553719' post='2102775'] What even Bootsy's speaking part in 'Groove...'? That's impressive. [/quote]
  6. I sometimes sit at rehearsals but find myself standing again for the more boisterous numbers. I just don't/can't play with the same ooomph when sitting.
  7. [quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1370550260' post='2102666'] I love Groove is in the Heart.... Simple bassline yet grooves like nobodys business [/quote] It does rather I really like the Muse number but I suspect it wont prove to be a popular choice on the pub circuit around these parts.
  8. Ahead of next weeks band rehearsal I have spent a couple of hours this evening learning: Muse Plug In Baby. The Killers All these things I've done. Deelite, Groove is in the heart. Quite enjoyed myself really So, what new tunes have other BC'ers been working on today?
  9. [quote name='bassintheface' timestamp='1370425396' post='2100532'] when I saw this thread and opened it, my reaction was "Oh, f***ing hell....." I then remembered that I can't currently afford it.......... Gutted. Would love it. [/quote] same here.
  10. Looking good, hope you are very happy together
  11. Ideally my gigging basses need to be under 10lb for these days. I've also found body shape makes a difference, for example I can comfortably play a p bass for longer than a lighter jazz bass.
  12. [quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1370372725' post='2099966'] [size=4]Nice Bass mate if I had some money I would have this off you in a flash [/size] [/quote] Thanks, it is a nice bass and may be it will still be about when you have some funds.
  13. No you are not being picky. If the songs bore you now, just think how it will feel after you've gigged them a few times. The only time I would learn that many songs would be for a dep, not an audition.
  14. [quote name='the hand of john curley' timestamp='1369990434' post='2095195'] Damn fine and great price. Shouldn't stick around too long. Good luck with sale, these really are great value for money. [/quote] Thanks for that and a sunday morning bump
  15. Just back from the bash and very good it was too. Good to meet a few of my cyber friends, although not able to get a chat with everyone as I couldn't stay all that long. A very well done and thanks to the organisers.
  16. Your wallet has taken a good bashing then Looks good.
  17. [quote name='mentalextra' timestamp='1370008136' post='2095493'] Where are you based? "not up north" means inside M25? [/quote] Just outside M25 about 15 mins from junction 25.
