[quote name='No1skewenjack' post='796638' date='Apr 5 2010, 03:06 PM']I've had a few lessons and in my last lesson I was asked to learn some 12 bar blues. I learnt them off by heart and thought my fingering was correct but my teacher corrected me and showed me the correct fingering then I tried to play the riff with the new fingering and I really strugled but could play with it before. My teacher said I've got muscle memory that why I strugled. Is muscle memory good or bad?[/quote] It's awesome if you learn it the right way in the first place!

[quote name='Finbar' post='796365' date='Apr 5 2010, 11:03 AM']It's something to do with the grounding of the pedal that means it has to use a battery I think [/quote] Voila! [url="http://www.thegigrig.com/acatalog/TheGigRig_Virtual_Battery.html"]Virtual Battery BC[/url]:

PM umph on this forum. I bought a single Loop switch from him and it is one of the most well put together pedals I've ever used. They're not complicated to build, but his wiring is the neatest I've seen in any unit, professional or not! He'll do you a good product at a decent price. If you need more bells and whistles (volume controls, EQ etc) I'd PM SilentFly. His SFX pedals are outstanding.

All 3 of them are 3 of my Bass heroes. Marcus' tone and groove are impeccable, as is Wooten's technique, and Stanley's musicianship and songwriting are just something else altogether. 3 of the greatest Musicians let alone Bass players of all time. I'd be happy to have 1% of the talent these guys possess. Despite all that I DO feel there is something missing. It's great in it's own right, but I'm not sure I could stand an entire album. And that's coming from someone who admires all 3 of these guys to the fullest extent!

Haha both of them are excellent! Particularly like BMW's though! "One of the most popular features sure to strike a cord with the floating voter is that the roundel can also be replaced in a matter of seconds should the opposition suddenly feel more appealing." Genius

Is your rhythm player capable of any lead? If so get him to double up. If not, try and get a new lead guitarist! Good luck mate

[quote name='Higgie' post='783024' date='Mar 23 2010, 04:03 AM']Dunno if you guys will be able to see this without being friends with the guy, but a video was uploaded to FaceBook of my band covering "Hysteria" on Saturday. By the way, my bass WAS heavily fuzzed out, but the camera just didn't pick it up. Sounds Earth-Shattering live!

Yup. I hard a Barge Blender and I thought it was awesome until I bought the XBlender. Now I wouldn't use anything else

You gotta come over soon John - Just took delivery of the new Aguilar Octave pedal! It's fantastic. Give me a bell mate!

Someone snap up that Octamizer in the FS section. Seriously. Mine just turned up today. It is AWESOME. I was GASing for both the MXR BOD and the Octamizer, but it's safe to say I don't even need to try the MXR. The Aguilar F'in rocks!!!

LS-2's are a very quick and cheap solution to the problem, as you can put the effects in one loop, and leave the other loop empty, and then use the level knobs to blend the sound together. Personally I use an Xotic X-Blender, as it has a big blend knob you can turn with your foot (invaluable for me as I have a fuzz in the loop, and sometimes just want a soft fuzz and then a heavy fuzz later in the song, so can change with my foot and either gradually fade the Fuzz in or just turn the knob up while the pedal is off) and it also has volume, bass and treble controls for EQ'ing the blended signal, eg to match your clean sound, or a bit of boost, etc. Then having the footswitch to be able to turn off the blend and go to straight effects is also very useful. Great pedal! The best blender available IMO.

Good communication, and quick payment What more could you ask for! Recommended.

Not tried one of those, I decided to go with the Aguilar Octamizer. Just waiting on it to be delivered...We should do some sound clips and compare results

Should Have Unloaded Kash Ere. Regret buying all other basses
