  1. I dislike the term ‘music theory. The bass guitar is a musical instrument. Why would you not want to learn about how music works, the inner workings for want of a better term?
  2. Introducing the Old Blood Noise Endeavours Minim, the ultimate pedal for creating unique sounds. This pedal features delay and reverb effects that are perfect for any musician looking to add some depth to their music. The brand, OBNE, is known for producing high-quality pedals that are built to last. The Minim has a range of effects including reverse delay and reverb, making it perfect for experimenting with different sounds. Whether you're a guitarist or a bassist, this pedal is a must-have for any musician. So why wait? Get your hands on the Old Blood Noise Endeavours Minim today! In perfect cosmetic condition. Works faultlessly. Used at home for a just few hours. Complete with box and everything it shipped with.
  3. He's fantastic. That's one of my old basses he's playing.
  4. I'm wondering why they didn't buy a proper headless bridge/tuning assembly and do it properly.
  5. I bought this new in November. It's barely been used and is thus in like new condition. I have quite a few OBNE pedals. I like this but it doesn't quite do what I bought it to do. The price includes UK postage. Check the video below for an idea as to what the pedal can do.
  6. Indeed, but it's surprising the number of students I meet at work who didn't study music at secondary school.
  7. You might want to read this. As someone who works full-time in music and with young people setting out on their music careers, I'd argue there's never been a better time. True, the cost of living crisis is impacting a lot of people. However, gone are the days when you needed a record contract or a huge budget behind you to record albums or singles. All you need nowadays is a smartphone and some creativity. Youngsters are also pretty adept at marketing themselves using social media. https://www.ukmusic.org/news/new-report-reveals-music-industry-delivers-4bn-exports-boost-to-uk-economy/
  8. Following artists and musicians I like is the reason I have a social media presence. I find instagram is the best platform. You don’t need to get bogged down with the nonsense that’s on there. Just follow the people you want to follow.
  9. Why are you playing the record and playing bass at the same time? Why not just record your track into your DAW, then play along to that? It’s omitting having two things going into the DAW at the same time. The few times I’ve done live-streamed gigs I used OBS. They were being streamed via YouTube. I haven’t tried via Facebook.
  10. Have you checked the inputs on the DAW correspond to the imputs you’re using? It might be easier to record the backing track first and simply play along to it, rather than trying to record both simultaneously.
  11. Bought new in October but never used. It still has the front/back plastic protection stuck on it. Complete with box and original packaging.
  12. My pedal collection has long since outgrown this, the smallest of the Pedaltrain range. It’s in good condition with Velcro attached. I don’t think I ever used the soft case that came with it.
  13. Send her a link to this thread. Job done.
  14. I have a thing about reverb and delay pedals. I currently have five that I use regularly. I have another two on the way, so I'm letting this one go. It's the least used of my collection and doesn't if I'm honest do anything that other pedals don't. It was bought very recently and hasn't left the house. As such, it's in pristine condition. The price includes postage.
  15. A post like this has popped up on New Year's Day for as long as I've been a member of the forum. If you don't like something then don't watch it. I saw about thirty minutes of it. I didn't like the music but as a musician, I enjoyed watching the performances.
  16. It surely shouldn't make any difference where it's made. They should still be built to the same standard.
  17. Barely used. I prefer its bigger brother. The price includes postage.
  18. I already have quite a large collection of reverb pedals, and having just today ordered another, this can go to a new home. I bought it new in October, it's in new condition and comes with the original box etc. The price includes postage.
  19. It's good that she gets to choose her audition pieces. The day of my audition is now just a blurry memory, but I remember being the most nervous that I've ever been. We could choose one of our own which could be an original piece. It had to showcase our technical proficiency - or otherwise. The other piece was given to us on the day. We were given a transcription and had - I think - 30 minutes to prepare it. Good luck to her anyway. I know a couple of people who studied music at Bath Spa. One is a guy I work with. They all have good things to say about it. She'll have a wonderful time. I miss my undergrad days. I'm often walking about at work, hearing the students practising in the rehearsal rooms, and wishing I could walk in and join them.
  20. In mint condition with box etc. I bought myself a turntable in September. This is part of my current setup for it. So far I've only been listening to it through headphones. I want to get a decent pair of monitors for it though, so I'm purchasing an integrated amplifier. The price includes postage.
  21. In mint condition with box etc. I bought myself a turntable in September. This is part of my current setup for it. So far I've only been listening to it through headphones. I want to get a decent pair of monitors for it though. As nice as this is, it won't provide enough output to power a pair of monitors. The price includes postage.
  22. I teach on a BA Popular Music course. I don't teach on the performance modules but I did audition a couple of the bass students last year. One did Dream Theater’s 6 o'clock which I was very impressed by. Another student did Run for Hills by Iron Maiden.
