  1. first bass I owned was a Blazer. Nice and light, plenty of bottom end, lovely neck. Should have keep it really, but in my naive youth a Fender P was where it was at, so it was p/x'd.
  2. Mick bought a guitar multi fx off me. Pleasure to deal with, can heartily recommend. Top banana!
  3. If a band has a bass player, then obviously they can get in another bass player. But the OP is asking which artists would never be the same. So for example you can relace The Ox, and with a very competent player, but are The Who the same?
  4. thanks all. I've put a post in the items wanted too to see what's out there in BC land.
  5. [quote name='RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE' timestamp='1354567552' post='1887560'] That's a relief ,) [/quote] the display only has 2 digits (bank and channel) so I still need a map so I know which song starts where

  7. [quote name='phsycoandy' timestamp='1354476268' post='1886449'] have u a price on the combo on its own? [/quote] pm'd
  8. it's set up so that each rhythm and lead sound I need are next to each other, either up and down or left to right.
  9. By choice. Starting off on classical guitar, then electric, but after seeing Nikki Sixx running around throwing shapes and posing that was it.
  10. I'm gonna mod my Melody Maker Flying V by adding an adjustable bridge and a neck pup. The current bridge pup is a Seymour Duncan HB-103 ceramic humbucker, so the question is what should I pair it with? The obvious answer may be a Seymour Duncan HB-103n which is the neck pup, but this is a cheaper 'Duncan Designed'. I'm assuming the original pup is an original Seymour Duncan, as the Gibson page with the Flying V blurb states it's a 'Seymour Duncan HB-103 ceramic humbucker', no mention of Duncan Designed and there is no lettering on it like what the Design ones have. Could be wrong though. I'm doing it because I love the V, and hate having to swap guitars during gigs. The sounds it's currently lacking are bluesy and Santana lead type sounds. Any thoughts? ta.
  11. don't use the Mick Ronson sound anymore, use the rhythm distortion sound instead. So that's 12.
  12. Where's Wally? one for the Magnum fans only
  13. OP i don't know if this is the kind of thing you mean, but if you have an iPad [url="http://www.digitech.com/en-US/products/ipb-10-programmable-pedalboard"]http://www.digitech.com/en-US/products/ipb-10-programmable-pedalboard[/url]

  15. [quote name='Gordon Thudmaster May' timestamp='1337158257' post='1656238'] [b]Do you suffer from Tinitus?[/b] [b]If so does this affect your playing?[/b] [b]Are there any ways of easing the problem?[/b] [b]The 'Whistling' in my ears is driving me potty![/b] [/quote] yup. Had it nearly 30 years. It's not an exact science, but my advise would be the opposite of some previous posts - don't ignore it. If you listen to it your brain may be able to tune it out, eventually. It will take time, and you won't always be in a situation where you can just stop everything to listen to it. Also you may be able to tune it. I tried tuning mine to A, but I've ended up with a D several octaves above treble clef. It's sometimes useful to have a sense of relative pitch.
  16. [quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1353281838' post='1873309'] Esteemed followers of the recording sections of the forum . May I pay homage to the results I hear that come from your expertise , but I cannot grasp the process. I see comments on different options and have just downloaded Reaper , I have tried audacity , cubase LE and a couple of others I am sure , BUT , they all seem so counter intuitive , is it me , am I losing it ? I grasped photoshop , spreadsheets , word , even powerpoint but all these DAW jobbies just do my head in . I just seem to hit a hurdle every step , I even saw a post that said to copy and paste in Reaper was a piece of p155 , but that appears to be beyond me. I really want to get into this as it focuses the technique somewhat and while I can use it as a practice aid quite well , as soon as I try to get past the very basics I am lost . This is just a rant I suppose , as no-one will have enough info to help me , even the reaper wiki leaves me cold , I just think a level of numptie is probably a painfully hard upward learning curve , but I just can't see the logic so far , IYSWIM [/quote] +1 fellow numpty here! The lies they tell - "the software is intuitive", "the easy to use use interface", bollox not for me!

  18. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1352990714' post='1870240'] Are there more up to date drivers on the manufacturer's web site? Does the manufacturer even have a web site? I couldn't find one. [/quote] they were taken over by Digitech. The website seems to have just been left, and doesn't seem to have been used for a few years. The J-Edit software I have is what is currently on the site.
