[quote name='tedgilley' timestamp='1335227213' post='1627749'] I was just joking ... tg [/quote] yeah I got that, but i still reckon it's true!

[quote name='tedgilley' timestamp='1335124977' post='1626140'] My practice rig isn't quite this big, but it's also less expensive. [/quote] but I would be willing to bet Geezer actually paid a lot less for that rig, than you did for yours.

i've been wanting to hear one of them. Have you managed to crank it up yet?

[quote name='Dandelion' timestamp='1334771612' post='1621051'] At what point in one`s progression in learning the bass does one become proficient enough to play in a band? I have played in a couple of bands many years ago, but we were all new to the game so we made mistakes together. But the thought of now joining an established band causes a modicum of anxiety. How proficient does one have to be? I am thinking about a joining pub rock affair in the future, if I can find a local one, but I don`t want to waste their time and/or make a total tit of myself. How good are you expected to be on a first audition? Is personallity more important than abillity? If somebody sent me a recording to learn prior to the rehersal, then I could do that, but not sure if I could step up to the mark if I was just dropped in "Sink or Swim" style. Any thoughts? [/quote] I refer the honourable gentleman to the heady days of punk rock, which I feel provide an interesting insight in to this very issue.

The Junkyard Dogs featuring Basschat's very own MacDaddy and Happy Jack, and Paul the Drums of SE Bassbash fame, are playing the George IV Chiswick High Road, that London. Tonight Fri 13 April FREE ENTRY [url="http://www.junkyarddogslondon.co.uk"]www.junkyarddogslondon.co.uk[/url]

I use an amp modeller and could not give a rat's ass about convincing or accurate. All I care about is can I get something usuable that sounds good.

i checked out the GNX before getting my Johnson. I was under the impression it was just for guitarists? Obviously wrong - doh! I know Digitech own Johnson, there may be similarities between the J Station and the GNX?

a couple of months ago I bought my guitar from Macari's. Not the one on Denmark, but the one 5 mins away. I'd been to check it out and play it a couple of times, staff were helpful and happy for me to sit there and play. When I went back to buy it I managed to haggle a decent price out of them too.

Played one a few years ago and loved the ramp, which is why I had one as part of my Shuker.

Go Clarky!

i remember the Tokai's from back in the day. They had quite a good reputation - too good to be copies.

some of the Epi sig models are made in Japan, I don' think they have Gibson on them.
