  4. MB1. He wore that Stingray a lot higher than any of Mr kings basses. It was so high that if it had been polka dotted ,youd have mistaken it for a very nice cravat!

  6. MB1. Saw her in Manchester with her band many moons ago when that track came out as a single off Diamond life. She is indeed a very good singer and stunningly beautiful. Her bass player played a musicman stingray under his chin (very high) and still does apparently! Great band smoochy or not!.
  7. [quote name='dave_bass5' date='Feb 10 2008, 11:35 PM' post='137890'] Hi All. Just wanted to post about my gig last night. After struggling for a few years trying to play with my fingers i final got up the guts to try and get through a gig without the pick. We did two sets, 1hour 40 mins and i only used a pick for 5 songs. I dont think i played everything as good as i normally would but it sounded ok for a first time. I also noticed i played a lot of things differently. Not because i couldn't play what i would with a pick but it somehow felt Easier to play what ive always wanted to play. More bass like and less guitar like i guess. I think the reason i can now do it was to simply raise the bass up a bit. I dont really have it that low anyway but a couple of inches Higher seemed to make the world of difference. I just need to strengthen my fingers a bit now. Anyway, this has renewed my interest in playing some very old songs. Im looking forward to my gigs more now. Cheers. MB1. Dont they make a hell of a mess of your bass once they start to defrost?

  18. [quote name='Hamster' post='137303' date='Feb 9 2008, 08:52 PM']Hi John Try these settings: input = 3 o'clock low bass = 10 o'clock Bass = 2 o'clock Mid = 5 o'clock high mid = 2 o'clock treble = 1 o'clock sub harmonics = 9 o'clock Also, make sure you have the deep, bright, eq and sub buttons pressed in. That should give you a reasonable starting point, but trial and error of course with the variables of your bass, its output, the acoustics of the room, placement of the cabs etc. If it's too boomy then roll off the low bass a bit and raise the mids.
