la bam

I've just done ramble on, and might have a look at the ocean in the upcoming weeks. Luckily, I kinda knew ramble on roughly from years and years ago. Having revisited it, and playing to backing tracks, it's more of a feel song for the verse (rather than the melody I had in my head) really takes some getting used to, and then the chorus part is insanely fast. I found the key to that was getting the lead up bounce E, B, E, B followed by (low) E, G#, B right, then the chorus falls into place easier. Good luck with them.

This is my fender fsr mij precision 60s reissue. You either like black and gold or you dont. I never ever liked black basses with gold until I saw it. Love them now. Also love the slightly orange sunburst g&ls and the tobacco burst with tort plates now I'm older.

I know quite a few on here use the G10 wireless variants. Just had an email of Line 6. There are potential overheating problems with these, and people are being asked to upgrade the firmware asap. ENGLISH ITALIAN FRENCH SPANISH GERMAN IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE Line 6 Relay G10, Relay G10S, and Relay G10T wireless products were introduced beginning in 2016. Since that time, we have become aware of four incidents of extreme overheating occurring in the transmitter during recharging. If you own any of these products—or use a G10T Transmitter with wireless-capable Line 6 Spider V/Spider V MkII or Yamaha THR-II amplifiers—you must update your product to the latest firmware as soon as possible. Step-by-step instructions are provided below. The Line 6 Relay G10T USB Charging Cable (an optional accessory not included with Relay G10, Relay G10S, or Relay G10T), which may be used to connect a G10T transmitter to a powered USB port, can also contribute to extreme overheating in the transmitter. The Relay G10T USB Charging Cable cannot be repaired and the concern cannot be remedied by a firmware update to other Relay G10 products. If you purchased a Relay G10T USB Charging Cable, please discontinue using it. Owners of the cable who provide satisfactory proof of its destruction will receive a refund.

The bonus being you can use the Sire in passive (just use the first 2 control knobs - tone control, master volume and pick up blend (move between both pickups - towards the neck for a more warm punch and towards the bridge for more bite), then when you're used to it the active mode brings it to life and you can use the lower 3 control knobs - high, mid (and freq) and bass cut and boost to fine tune to taste. Theres lots of videos where Marcus Miller himself describes how to use it. If it helps, the sires are now hands down my first choice basses, and I've been playing around 30 years now.

That's right, there are 2 black ones on the site. One at £399 and one (with a different scratchplate) for £369. I think the ones with the maple (light coloured) neck are the swamp ash bodies, and the one with the ebony necks are alder bodies. Both sound great though.

I know you seem to be leaning to the Squier, but for complete versatility and the need never to upgrade, its be a sire v7 rev 2 for me. I've played jazz basses and p basses and the yamaha bb434s (pj) and the sire rev2s are unbelievable. And truly unbelievable for the price! The finish is as good as my main fender, and sounds just as good if not better. Some are now on offer for £350 at Andertons. They sit lovely in the mix and are great in passive mode as well as active. They're quite a narrow neck compared to the p basses and Ray's I've played, so a bit easier to learn on - and they come in lots of different colours. With the preamp you can get pretty much any sound you like, saving the need to buy different basses for different projects. I have seen the squire cvs and they look great too and have a really good reputation. Whichever bass you choose, squire, sire, sub, you'll have a great bass!

Cheers, the precision was a lucky find. I saw the same limited model a year or two back and it just looked brilliant, but was way out of my price range. Luckily I found one barely used for a great price and love it. I really love the sires. They sit so well in the mix and the preamp are stunning. Such a variety of sounds available they're great for any type of band. Took me a little while to get used to the way the neck narrows towards the top, but the clarity up there is great.

What I have recently noticed is that some middle men companies / brokers that have a lot of courier services for you to choose from WONT insure musical instruments, even if the actual courier service you use does on their own site. As you book through the broker youve no cover.

3 for me. Burgundy Sire V7 rev 2. Lake Placid Sire V7 rev 2. Fender midnight mij 60s

I've just used UPS. Insurance included in price. It does state that musical instruments are covered. Tried to find some small print reversing that, but it all seemed good.

Are you finger, pick or slap player? Sounds to me like your after a slap/funk sound, which is a different technique. Closest I found to that (and i cant play slap) is to do a mid scoop in the eq.

Cream coloured or white plastic pickup covers.

Purple Sire V7 rev 2 for me. Love it. Very easy to play on, and with the preamp really makes it easy to cut through the mix when testing with backing tracks etc on the daw.

Sing it Back by Moloko. Finally got round to learning it properly, and love it. Such a groove!

Active battery compartments and wiring compartments that look like 2 big odd shapes of plastic just bunged on the back of the bass. Too many pickups - double p type etc. Relic'ing. Brand names on bass body. Plastic control panel knobs. Capital letters used for names on the headstock. Coloured straps.

Great video. Lovely sound and style. The simple parts and drops back into the chorus are fantastic, and he keeps it busy in the verses but with pure class.

Now listed for anyone interested.

Well, in a twist, I'm going to sell mine. I've left the tribute band I used this in, and have other basses, so it's simply surplus to my needs, as much as I'd like to keep it. I'd also had a special hard case specifically made for it. I'll post the ad in the for sale section.

These are what's on the tribute I have.

SB2s are great value too.

The lb100 tributes are quite solid, thick basses. But in a quality way. They also look a lot better in the flesh than in their photos. The natural is stunning. I believe (but I may be wrong) it's all the usa hardware, but it's just assembled overseas.

They are so well put together and high quality. Really solid basses. I've found mine records better than any bass or bass and pedal I've had.
