  1. You absolutely need to know the key. Hopefully your guitarist will be able to give you the right info but bear in mind that the first chord of a song isn't necessarily the key. Good luck and enjoy
  2. [quote name='throwoff' timestamp='1352298268' post='1861230'] When the world ends and all the Fenders and Musicmans are gone. Rickenbackers are but burnt shadows on the ruined stages of old theatres. Gibson is just a word and Lakland is a legendary place where no man has trod. The few surviving bass players will hike across the land and sail the brown polluted seas to find M Fillips. And to buy one of his legendary instruments. [/quote]
  3. What a pain for you and the bass. Hope you get it back Karl, thanks for the heads up
  4. Very nice Dave and properly roadworn
  5. Got to love bass chat and some of the splendid peeps inhabiting it Big well done to John for the pro job and Ped for posting this thread. Happy days.
  6. All good Molan. There should be one for auditionees as well. We auditioned three guitarists last night. Two of them have been immediately dismissed from our list, mostly down to volume, attitude and lack of finesse. Just playing at volume and overplaying the whole time.
  7. Yes, I think its the best issue in a long time. Just wish they would use a slightly larger/bolder typeface
  8. Classy mate What a cracking finish. hope you both enjoy a long and happy relationship. New cab day for me so I'm happy as well.

  10. A problem free transaction with Andy, a pleasure to deal with. Cab in excellent condition as described.
  11. Good news, particularly as they are a decent bunch of chaps.
  12. Put a new set of Highbeams on my old G&L a few weeks back prior to a run of gigs. Sounds awesome (to me).
  13. [quote name='silddx' timestamp='1351505996' post='1851785'] 24 songs in three hours! [/quote] Impressive, I'm pleased with 3 songs in 24 hours
  14. Not sure why but I feel the same about it as you. When I see the type of wording used in this ad, I'm always suspicious, although I suppose it could be true. "don't know much about it, I just play my precision" Generally but I guess not always, people who have four basses tend to know what they are about and how they function. It might be genuine but if you are worried, then back away. I do, safe in the knowledge that there will be another one along at some point.
  15. I made my brain hurt all morning trying to remember the track. Finally got there "WHY" Came back on here all pleased with myself and you had already sussed it.
  16. I seem to remember that the B side of the Easy Livin single had a busy bass line, particularly towards the end of the number, weird sort of tone though, like a whole load of angry wasps stuck in a chimney . Not much use to you though as I can't think what the song was called but it wasn't on the Demon and Wizards album. Maybe once I wake up a bit more and have some caffeine it will all come back to me.
  17. [quote name='KiOgon' timestamp='1351083765' post='1847081'] I particularly like the "[color=#333333][font=Arial][size=1][b][size=5] white felt bushes that I get from Holland[/size][/b],[/size][/font][/color]" I reckon that's what he's been smoking [/quote] His descriptions are becoming more and more entertaining and ridiculous with each listing. Was going to say long may it continue but problem is, some poor sap eats up the bullshit and shells out their hard earnt dosh.
  18. Our guitarist has abandoned ship due to other commitments. We have gigs booked and therefore need to get in a replacement sharpish. Based in Herts we play mostly pub gigs, plus a few functions. We aim to gig on average twice a month, although september was every weekend but then none in october. Line up at present is drums, me on bass, female lead vocal, female rhythm guitar and backing vocals. Set is a mix of old and new, covering rock, pop, soul and funk. Looking for a good all round, versatile guitarist. There is some video footage taken at a recent function on our facebook page, if you want to get an idea of what we are about. [url="http://www.facebook.com/#!/defunktband?fref=ts"]http://www.facebook....nktband?fref=ts[/url] So, Bass chatters if you know of any guitarists who might fit the bill pm me please.
  19. Based on the songs I think they would have been faded orange, worn through around the knees and too short - revealing his fair isle thick woollen socks. . .
