For a festival project I have used 'A Lot of Germans'. Made more sense in the Netherlands.

Wash briefly with cold water before playing, use soap every now and then. Dry with towel, play!

Bolo replied to Clarky's topic in General Discussion
What a tragedy, metal loses one of it's most influential musicians, a pioneer of extreme music. RIP Jeff! -
Hush (Kula Shaker / Deep Purple) + Audition = Confusion

Well I can't go, people might think I'm Sean Connery! -
There are so many brands that give you clean and Solid, most of them with their own flavor or 'signature' mixed in. SWR is a good one, and you may find what you seek in a Peavey, markbass (though more expensive), Kustom, Gallien Krueger, Hartke, Ashdown. They are all fine, the key is to try before you buy. Compare as many as you can! Also, have fun searching, the search alone taught me a lot.

The Happy Tree Friends tune. The score from the Halloween movie. These are a few of my favorite things- from that musical....

[quote name='The Hat' timestamp='1366664035' post='2055805'] And this shows my ignorance here, but when I do listen to metal, I don't here the bass line at all. Where as with any other music I can always pick it out. [/quote] With thrash metal look for the high mids or high overtones that give m away. Detuners are often audible in growly subs. Kiss and Maiden type stuff is very midsy too... anything to get around those sloppy guitards realy

There's oodles and more of interesting and challenging basslines in heavy metal. Some bands not so much, where the bass just follows guitar and nothing else. Too many bands to name them all feature imaginative virtuose and creative bass players, whose parts are not at all easily copyed. The fun in playing slow (laid-back) basic blues/rock for half an hour or more escapes me, it feels like a chore. Me I'd rather play thrilling fast rollercoaster parts, that keep me on my toes and demand my full attention when playing. Just to name a few people that have me raise the bar for my own skills: Frank Bello, Dan Lilker, Steve Harris, Paul Barker, Jo Bench, Frank Watkins, Phil Rind.... Listening to these people (and many others) makes me pick up my bass, try to play what they play and incorporate what I learn in my own songwriting. On the other hand, 'great' bands like the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Yes, Genesis and many other millionsellers I can hardly bare to listen a single song of. It takes all kinds apparently!

Rush inaugurated into R&R Hall of Fame....best speech ever!
Bolo replied to White Cloud's topic in General Discussion
What's wrong with the crowd though? Hollerin' and carrying on while people are talking up there! Brilliant speech I must say. -

Set the head on it's side [] next to the handle

Looks like it's a chore to tune every time, those tuner pegs seem snugly fitted.

Just got done with my board, baked the cables myself because a guy has to learn right? Only thing left is to tape off the Leds on the BassOmeter, boy are they bright! [IMG]http://imageshack.us/a/img27/8771/20130301233907.jpg[/IMG]

That private stock bass looks pretty good, and that price is only in mickey mouse money One string more and I'd be saving up for one!

DRs. The high-beams i found very bright. The lo-riders are great but I was still missing some oomph at the Gstring. Now I'm rocking their DDT drop down tuning strings 135-50 5string set and it blows me away! Solid tone, best low B ever and all strings have the same sound characteristics, B through G.
