    [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1372925462' post='2131597'] Green ... a rich emerald green. [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/230995175149?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649"]http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1497.l2649[/url] [/quote] Nice bass - would like to get back in the BC saddle with one of the higher spec ones at some point. The prices of these seem to be on the rise recently, maybe not as undervalued and under appreciated as much any more?

    [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1372582848' post='2127327'] Can you accurately weigh this please? Ta [/quote] The weight is coming out at just shy of 9lb,
  5. bagsieblue
    Yes - Played this, very nice bass. Would be tempted by this if I wasn't in a culling phase. Damn you bad timing. Mr Ead is a top guy to deal with as well.

    [quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1372496077' post='2126358'] I've just snagged a Pro II and it has totally knocked my preconceptions of BO Warwick basses. I have tried the odd Streamer LX/BO and Corvettes and I wasn't blown away but this Pro II Dolphin has got me absolutely hooked. I'd have thought the rear pup would be virtually redundant being so close to the bridge but it even works soloed and adds a nice parp if blended with neck. The neck is as good as any of my skinny vintage Warwick NT and I'm sure part of the joy of the tone must be from the maple neck/ash body combo which I have enjoyed on Jazz basses (but not always enjoyed other aspects of the Jazz). Who'd have thought that my cheapest Warwick would rapidly become my favourite Warwick! [/quote] Agreed - I absolutely love mine - probably my favourite bass - alongside some supposedly more illustrious makes and models.

    Thanks for the input everyone and please continue with it. I've had a look around in garage band - not found it as easy as expected really, will have to spend a bit more time on it. Is there any way to cue up chord progressions in it - I can see the piano for single notes. I've also got iRealB on android tablet as well if anyone has any experience with that.
  8. bagsieblue
    Yep - Bass sounds good to me. Good funk bass tone.

    Ooh - 5th November - Bonfire Night In Manchester Ooh Ooh at Band On The Wall - played there! Very interested, this or Dream Theatre - or both??
  10. bagsieblue
    Yes - more than happy to ship.
  11. bagsieblue
    Thanks for the replies guys - I'll have a play over the weekend. Slight concern is that I don't want to be spending time faffing with kit when I could be using the time to practice.

    [quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1372285487' post='2123961'] Hi Bagsie, Firstly, good on you mate! The monthly music competition is great fun. And VERY addictive. I'm sure you'll love it. Secondly, it sounds like the only thing you need is an audio interface - a 'box' that plugs in to the USB socket of your computer, into which you can then plug your bass (and other instruments) using a standard guitar/mic lead. This is a good one to consider: [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B002R9ILOY"]http://www.amazon.co...aw/d/B002R9ILOY[/url] ...and there are cheaper options out there too. Although expect to pay around the £100 mark on average. GarageBand is a great bit of software and ideal for beginners. Tons of YouTube videos out there to get you started on how to use it for recording, arranging, etc. Happy to give you more advice but I need to get my head down (it's been a long day!). Don't hesitate to ask for more info - plenty of folks here very willing to oblige Paul [/quote] Thanks for this - can I not use the Zoom B9 as the 'box' - what leads would I need then?
  15. bagsieblue
    As per title - I'm going to have a go at this recording / composition competitions. Apart from my imagination - What equipment do I need? Complete 'noob' at this but I have: A bass (or more ) Amp Zoom B9.1ut - barely used as found it a little complicated - I'm a simple guy! (old) Macbook with Garageband 3 - again barely used as found it a little complicated. Google Nexus 7 (if that helps?) What leads / equipment do I need to be able to record?, eg to connect bass to computer. Also, is Garageband the simplest to use for a novice?

    [quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1372254935' post='2123423'] All that activity is going on your credit reference, however. Even the Experian trial, if they run a check. You might be comfortable with that, but it can give people issues - hence urging caution. [/quote] Works both ways as well mate - If you are paying the minimum payments then this can be a good way to build up or restore credit ratings. Again, caution that the money does have to be paid back at some point, ideally without paying any interest, fees, penalties etc.

    [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1372179999' post='2122563'] You are hardly the first person to come up with this idea. The industry has a name for it: Churning. [/quote] I'm more familiar with the term Stoozing. I used to do a lot of it some years ago - free money really. Not as easy and attractive to do now due to balance transfer fees etc. It is a worthwhile way of spreading the repayments of a large purchase over many months on a 0% introductory offer. REMEMBER to pay off before interest charges start though. Credit card interest rates are the work of the devil.....
