Another one here for Iron Maiden. Also Twisted Sister. \m/ \m/ [size=4] [/size]

Bought some Elites from Paul. Yet another marvellous Basschat transaction. Happy to do business with Paul again.

Luis Cardenas version of Runaway. Which at the time was allegedly the most expensive music video ever made. Luis Cardenas also at one time held the world record for having the largest drum kit. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-GxYzbI4lg[/media]

How much is your bass worth to you? £150 for a Mono gig bag is money well spent, and roughly a tenth the cost of a Stingray? Yup I got one

Saw them at a biker rally a few years ago. Made sure to take some mates who were into Iron Maiden, after explaining they were one of Steve Harris's major influences.

Jon is experimenting with the stripes. He has started lacquering over them as of Friday, and says this may not be the finished thing but i reckon it looks pretty good!

[quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1471619305' post='3114548'] A former band needed to borrow a guitarist from the other band we were playing with as ours had finally gone round the twist that afternoon and jumped in the canal. [/quote] A previous band of mine, once had to borrow a vocalist, as halfway through the set, the mother of ours took him to be committed to a mental health institution. We got the young chap who had been performing some of the hip hop previously, to freestyle over our (original) tunes. Surprisingly it worked quite well.

Didn't Flea's own brand Flea bass, have QC issues? Could be the way he likes them [size=4] [/size]

[quote name='Coilte' timestamp='1471439427' post='3113047'] 3. The general attitude of the band members. [/quote] This. [quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1471441083' post='3113069'] In my latest project the singer / songwriter won't let me get anywhere near contributing towards rehearsal despite my best efforts... He also seems to feel the need to provide a buffet of sandwiches and snacks, alongside beer and a selection of soft drinks... [/quote] can I join?

If you do, be prepared. Take spare strings and tools necessary for any bass adjustment. Years ago did a gig, took one bass, and a strap lock came out of the body. Did half the gig sitting down

There's a band in that London called Violent Offender, no bass, the 2 guitarists have 7 string guitars.

did.

I use a DigiTech BP355 and cannot recommend it highly enough. Plenty of bass amp sims, or just use it as a multi fx pedal. It has drums and a looper, and even some amp sims for guitarists. All for under a ton. Full details here: http://digitech.com/en/products/bp355

Covered by MU sub's.

[quote name='Number6' timestamp='1467383587' post='3083302'] I had to drop to Wunjo's today in their new basement home. I bought a 5 string about a year back it has really had very little use so i thought a part ex trip to Denmark St was in order. I need a 4 string back up.....a quick chat with Tom (or was it Tom?) and a great deal done on a part ex and i now have a Yamaha 424x in a nice metallic red. Always good doing business with Wunjo's [/quote] New basement home? Where have they moved to?

[quote name='Thunderpaws' timestamp='1471009551' post='3109979'] I found this. Dunno if you judge it as a poor video or not! [url="https://youtu.be/pnlUKhEH0EU"]https://youtu.be/pnlUKhEH0EU[/url] [/quote] By virtue of the fact its just slap, yes, very poor. Not really hearing the amp are we?

Guitarist from previous band really rates his Engl gear. Can't find a decent vid either. If someone does please post the link.

[quote name='PlungerModerno' timestamp='1470870549' post='3109144'] Coming along very nicely. Would look amazing with a clearcoat finish with that woodgrain. [/quote] I was thinking something similar and almost changed my mind about the colour scheme. Almost. [size=4] [/size]
