Yes, it needs throwing away. Obviously some kind of breakdown in the cable, no point having something like that around (probably keep the plugs and ditch the lead).

He retired it from him doing it with pink floyd. What Manson decides to do in another group is none of his business really.

Probably the same person who thought you would never have to adjust a truss rod and it wasn't a user changeable item. And if it was based on the 50s design, the first telecasters (or broadcasters) didn't have truss rods at all, so they weren't a user item

Yes, I spent the whole gig playing with the graphic on the front of my ABM600, although it had the same settings as on my last gig, when I played the Spector with the D'addarios on. I tried the bass before I went out (always try before I go out) - I didn't take that bass to the gig last fortnight as I had just change the strings, but I had played it in more since then and it seemed ok. I have the longevos on my ibanez SR1605 and it sounds fine, but it just doesn't seem to work on the Maruszczyk, which previously had Black strings (sounded great, looked great, ripped the hell out of my fingers), and before that d'addarios, like my other basses.

we knew the score for us. They wanted us on at 8:30, play until about 10 to 10 when they did the walkthrough or whatever it is, and then if it finished before 11 go back on until quarter past. so we played until 10 to 10 finished with Saturday nights alright for fighting, went down well, the sat around until one of the guys fell over, then came back in with I get knocked down. All seemed to go well. but I had a terrible tone which I couldn’t correct in my first half, I just took one bass, unusually, and It had no definition or treble. The only thing I can think is I changed the strings a few weeks ago for longevo and lowered the action, maybe that? asside from that and the short times, it was good, and pay was fine!

You are a sick man!

Should be fixed now.

Sorry about about, fixed now

Nice, in "Something that isn't tort" !

I am not sure there is no. And a Les Paul with P90 pickups looks pretty good, but they are the same size as the humbuckers.

What kind of craziness is that? Taken to extremes that means we only really need one bass

Cant you just get undrilled necks?

Which is the same as here no? No, I mean that an argument about his post would be different because people would be attacking a member of their forum

I am not surprised, but also it is a bit different there as he is a member of TalkBass

Yeh, well you expect the sound to mellow when your tattoos fade. Luckily I have some tattoos done by Dan Gold with his own ink at the time on my chest which are almost as bright as 10 years ago when they were done, so it keeps a nice bright top end!

Although I am not in the market for one of these as I need to be reducing numbers, not increasing. It is a bit of a shame that the P pickup white bass has to be lumbered with a tort pickguard when the JJ one gets a nice white one. I suppose it isn't much in the scheme of things to get another one but still!

If you don't use pedals, then I can't see any reason why you would buy a B6 over a stomp. Although if you don't use pedals, I don't get why you would get a stomp either - why not just get a DI box or something like the TC Spectacomp, where you can just have a toneprint and a DI out?

Certainly, My bass playing is much more harsh since I got my tattoos, and the more red they are, they harsher they sound!

That particular bass is on eBay at the moment, and it does look a pretty clean example. There was one in Mansons last year for about 1k, but I see they are all seemingly up for quite a lot more now

The bass seems pretty well balanced in the mix. I like the instrumentation at the start, and as you say, the sound of the bass and the atmosphere - a bit repetitive, but I think that is the point to build up. I really liked it until the singing, at which point I was out, but sounds like a good bass line to learn.

Yes, its a fender performer bass, made in japan. Not many of them around as it wasn't popular, but it was the 80s so they were trying to go for something pointy. One of those basses that is hard to find but not many people are looking. I think they are nice, enjoyed playing one at the last bass bash, even if the volume is pretty temperamental. So why do you think it is fake? I can't see it would be worth faking them, they are not really worth enough to put the effort in compare to say an old jazz or something.

I had that single, bought new. But I was a child it wasn't my fault. My dad had the 70s to St George and the Dragonet and little blue riding hood. Only the colour was changed to prevent an investigation!
