What Dead Kennedys bassline isn't good?

Victor Wooten? Thunder at as an attacker? Les Claypool as eccentric libero?

Baseballs, MXR, the ashdown worked fine too but is quite large.

Hide the rockwool between the bookcase and the wall: happier everyone! For a fun decoupling project look up 'tennisball platform'.

The live album I hate the least is "marooned" by Sodom. On the whole, live albums are utter tosh and should all be destroyed except for the people that are actually on them as a memento.

Even though the ringing often fades, the damage is real and irreparable.

Store-bought is fine.

If I recall correctly, his amp failed twice in a row. He said sod it put in everything fresh: replace amp, cab, cables, bass; the lot. Walked to the front of the stage, points angrily at bass, points at dude and shove the bass towards his face before turning round to fetch the spare one.

Thanks for posting both vids! By switching between them it's clear the BPM difference is trivial to minor at most. The Anthrax version is however produced a lot better, imo of course and I'm quite biased.

Does that bit of silk mute terribly? It may not even be that audible. I love playing on DR strings DDT5-55 heavy G: 55 😧 75 A: 85 E: 115 B: 135 SKU: 6-00781-00334-6

I saw a video by Taylor showing they just use Turtle Wax on all their guitars. From the cheapest Mexico made to the bespoke £8k and up!

Forgot Red Fang!

It's obviously not a simple question as you keep adding parameters and conditions. Four fingers and a thumb can achieve quite a high number of attacks per minute on the strings with a little practice to that goal. With two finger you can still use up and down strokes. I think three hits per finger per second shouldn't be difficult, times two for up and down, times two fingers is twelve attacks per second, times sixty is about 720 attacks per minute? Speed metal/black metal territory I'd say.

Yeah but they sound sh*t don't they.

Ply usually enhances the properties of a piece of wood. Less torque, warping, tougher, stronger etc. Especially when you set these against weight, price or reliability plied wood can be amazing. Because it's used in building materials we tend to think of it as cheap or basic but it really makes sense.

No mention yet of Amenra from Belgium, kicks off around 2:40 but Doom guys will want the atmos of the intro:

Three. That's how many bass guitars I have.

Gene Hoglan, the Atomic Clock! I'm nowhere near his league though.

Sober?

Paradise Lost lost me (hah) after 'Gothic'. That and Lost Paradise are awesome albums!

Hugh Laurie Tim Minchin

Oh I forgot to plug HERDER! Huge sound! https://herder.bandcamp.com/album/gods

That was one of the Jackson sisters wasn't it?
