he usually makes the point that 90% of what he does, is holding down the bass in a band. But if I went to see a band featuring Billy Sheehan, I would be a tad disappointed if he didn't do a bass solo.

with that level of knowledge of the products they sell, I'd be happy to buy from them

[quote name='wombatboter' timestamp='1324811078' post='1477904'] Watched the double DVD recently and thought it was pretty good.. Still I thought the whole image thing which was displayed on the DVD-cover (baddest motherf*cker, etc..) didn't make any sense.. They try to give you the impression that he is the king of danger while he seems to be a really down to earth lad who seems to enjoy playing on the machines in a bar for hours (not really rock n roll to be honest) and collecting knives (I know other people with the same hobby) Sure there are drugs and booz and all that but imo they seem to make a lot more out of him than he himself normally does.. He's polite, has his views on life and seems to be a loving dad.. The image one has of him is apparantly a lot more rock n roll than he himself probably is.. [/quote] was quite shocked that he lives in rent controlled accommodation and doesn't even own his own house.

i've gone for the M Audion option, hoping that getting to grips with pro tools won't be too hard. I am not a techie!

i'm covered for free through my MU membership.

So as posted earlier these are just rebranded Squiers?

Are they made in the same Factory as the Chinese Squiers?

cheers for the replies! As always Basschat comes up trumps

Are they uncomfortable, does the edge of the bridge plate dig in to your picking hand, and does the ridge affect picking if you want to pick over the pup? I'm guessing it's a case of adjusting technique to suit, but I'd be interested to hear from those who play them. ta

I don't have one, I have a volume potentiometer

Yep, looking forwards to this one

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1324369764' post='1473387'] I'd remind the bass player in my band to bring his unused M-Audio interface thingy to rehearsal tonight and see if I could maybe slip it into my gigbag when he wasn't looking. [/quote] what a splendid idea!

[quote name='Mykesbass' timestamp='1324330883' post='1473194'] Thanks Ped. [/quote] this

I was looking at getting one of those audio/USB things to plug my guitar in to the computer. Some come with basic amp sims and recording software and are not too expensive. But for a similar price I could get a new sound card with an audio input and bundled software. Which way would you guys go?

[quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1324254249' post='1472363'] I'd like to see a 'music off topic' and a separate 'off topic off topic'. If you see what I mean. [/quote] *would be pressing the 'like' button if there was one*

there is a lot of gear snobbery surrounding Behringer. Like any company they can make good stuff and crap stuff. Add personal taste and price in to the equation and we have the continual Behringer debate threads I'm using a Behringer X Amp multi fx for guitar, in the band I play guitar in. It does the job (some of the fx are actually rather good) and nothing else that did the job came close to the price.
