[quote name='lowdown' post='251881' date='Jul 31 2008, 10:16 AM']Mark... I think you need to give a bit more info.. What sound card? Is Audacity set right...? Connections...? What are you monitoring through..? 16 bit / 24 bit...? I see you are in Essex as well....where? And you might be a Hammers fan? Garry[/quote] hello Garry gonna sound a right div here, but here goes.... are sound cards already in new laptops (mine is a fujitsu siemens pi2515, 250gb) vista home premium audacity was on a disc i have but am gonna uninstall and download again passive bass to amp (hartke a100 combo) pre-amp out into pc listen through headphones 16 bit/24 bit....dont understand (told you i am a div at this type of thing) please explain southend based and a lifelong hammer

come on boffins, where are you when i need you

been jamming along to tracks on my mp3 player played through my amp then plugged into my laptop and recorded with audacity. sounds ok but could be better, starts clear then goes a bit muffled, then clear again etc any advice appreciated

I have never played a new one but I thought the 'Warwicks have [b][u]far necks' [/u][/b]thing was a misnomer, or perhaps it is true of the recent ones? I am not very 'up' on Warwicks at all, so don't listen to me.[/quote] my bass has a [i]near[/i] neck

i tried boiling, wont do it again though. leave them in methylated spirit for 12-24 hours, you will get a much better result, imo. this link will explain, the yanks call it DENATURED ALCOHOL but we call it METHYLATED SPIRIT [url="http://www.tunemybass.com/strings/how_to_clean_bass_strings.html"]http://www.tunemybass.com/strings/how_to_c...ss_strings.html[/url]

if i was to buy another bass it would have to have a really low action are any brands known for that looks and sound wise i like the fender marcus miller jazz bass, although i dont know what their playability is like any help on this one?

`ere yer go [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-sets-Fat-Beams-Marcus-Miller-Signature-Bass-Strings_W0QQitemZ350067965445QQcmdZViewItem?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-sets-Fat-Beams-Mar...p3286.m20.l1116[/url]

now i have tried DR fatbeams i dont think i will use anything else fantastic strings they are expensive but......there is a link on this site somewhere where you can buy two sets from the U.S.of A for the price of one set over here if someone doesn`t put it up soon (the link) i will try to find it

this one is quite useful.... [url="http://www.tunemybass.com/bass_setup/bass_intonation.html"]http://www.tunemybass.com/bass_setup/bass_intonation.html[/url]

[quote name='Jesus' post='241724' date='Jul 17 2008, 01:24 PM']Its just got here, and im a little excited to get home now... This will be the first time ive picked up a bass and pissed the neighbopurs off, ever! Im out all night in Canning Town watching a mates band so im not gonna get to play till tomorrow. Im also relying almost solely on StudyBass & a few downloaded video's to teach me the basics. [b]Anything i should be aiming to be capable of doing within the 1st few hours/first few days? [/quote][/b] yeah anything by U2

well made for what they cost but weak pups, imo. i had this for a while but just couldn`t get on with 5 strings....[url="http://imageshack.us"][/url]

weird shaped basses [url="http://www.weirdomatic.com/weird-bass-guitars.html"]http://www.weirdomatic.com/weird-bass-guitars.html[/url]

get an SX..... you`ll love it

very very pleased with my sound sx `75 jazz bass with wizard 84 neck pup dr fatbeams hartke amp

i blame phil gould.... if it weren`t for him, old thunder-thumbs king would have remained a drummer

from another angle...... [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url]

just stuck a mirror scratchplate on mine...... [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url]

this bird here................ [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] oh sorry its a bloke (steve severin)

the only complaint i had about my SX jazz was the neck pup was very very weak, not even half the volume of the bridge pup which is very "punchy" replaced with wizard 84 neck pup, stuck on a set of DR fatbeams, problem solved, sounds perfect.

i have big hands (palms) but short stumpy fingers....maybe thats why
