  1. I'd love to try an Ampeg PF50T with my Barefaced cabs - anyone taking one to the SE Bass Bash?
  2. I had one of these, very well made basses. GLWTS
  3. Whilst packing up after a gig I tried to jump onto the stage but didn't quite get my foot high enough. I scraped the whole length of my shin against the edge of the stage. Stinging rawness followed by aching scabbiness. Ouch.
  4. But no, you won't blow up your bass amp by playing guitar through it. Whether it sounds any good is another matter entirely.
  5. I was a bit embarrassed at how many drummers I had never heard of, given that drummers are rather important to us bass players!
  6. [quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1468140611' post='3088753'] The pickups look like Yamaha soapbars, the headstock suggests a TRB. [/quote] [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1468141123' post='3088755'] The control knobs on a TRB are angled and the truss rod access it at the body end. I'm curious about that 12th fret marker too. [/quote] I clearly spend too little time staring at pictures of bass guitars

  8. Pairing two dissimilar cabs is unlikely to work well. Keep the one you prefer and get a second one; sell the other cab.
  9. [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1468090357' post='3088577'] Our singer, who also plays in three other bands, was always nursing throat problems. She then went for vocal training and hasn't suffered since. [/quote] I had one (count it: 1) singing lesson and that made a massive difference to how I use my voice.
  10. I fronted a band for 4 years and never once cancelled over a sore throat. I went ahead with one gig despite being on the mend from a heavy cold and only just got away with it.
  11. I had a Yamaha BBG in almost exactly that finish. I really liked it, but you don't get the 3D ripple that real flamed maple has.
  12. [quote name='skej21' timestamp='1467754709' post='3086019'] This is not helping my GAS for a mustang!!

  13. In an effort to get back on topic, I think the capitalisation has occurred because the legend TAB is often written (descending vertically) at the start of a piece, to distinguish it from the standard notation:
  14. [quote name='grunge666' timestamp='1467904446' post='3087214'] Excuse the pun but.....what a relief!! [/quote]
  15. There is a Swindon band called Syntronix who cover 80s electro pop.
  16. Well I've been through all the emoticons but there isn't one for grabbing a person by the shoulders and shaking them...
