MacDaddy

used one at rehearsal on Sunday. Was quite impressed, EQ gave me what I wanted and it was plenty loud enough competing with 2 guitars in an old school heavy metal band.

[quote name='4000' post='333504' date='Nov 20 2008, 10:47 PM']Ah, big Camel fan here, although I prefer them before Richard joined... The story went that my 4001CS used to belong to a certain member of Anthrax, but I don't know how true it is. My first Warwick Dolphin was bought by the guy from Hundred Reasons. Better than either, I used to have Joey DeMaio's pick. I've never been the same since I lost it. Maybe it was the true Pick of Destiny.

I've always found them a bit wooly, or muffled.

If you really want to do something: whatever key you are in, just go up and down the relevant pentatonic a couple of times.

Truly inspirational. Can someone post the dates that he's playing in London? MacDaddy?[/quote] 16-Nov-08 RICHARD BONA BAND + Danilo Perez Trio Barbican is all I can find, but check out the what's on part of London Jazz site [url="http://www.londonjazzfestival.org.uk/index2nd.cfm?refid=14&tmpt=events&tmptID="]http://www.londonjazzfestival.org.uk/index...nts&tmptID=[/url] otherwise Urb may be able to help?

He's doing the London Jazz festival "as member of the Wayne Shorter Quartet, and leading a trio of pan-American intensity".

[quote name='urb' post='328627' date='Nov 13 2008, 07:46 PM']- and I swear there is something listed over the 10 nights that will appeal to even the most cynical jazz-hater - there are simply far too many good gigs on[/quote] +1 I'd love to see John McLaughlin, but I'm a poor impoverished student (again) and have a rehearsal on the 23rd. I'm gonna try catch some of the free stuff though, including John Etheridge (for free!) on the 22nd

I went to a talk with Peter King (jazz alto sax player) earlier today. Prodigiously talented musician, good stories, great insights. Glad I went. Didn't like any of his bebop stuff, but the Bartok arrangements were good. Can't believe Bilbo has not mentioned London Jazz week. Richard Bona is playing

lovely.

worth £70.00 though?

Many moons ago, I studied Jazz at college on a 2 year course, but no means an expert but I'm aware of the different genres. But this to me is [i]jazz[/i]. The test is how much can you watch? (if you make it to 6 mins what the French Connection UK is going on?)

it's about using flattened 5ths and making sure every chord is at least a 7th

[quote name='Skjoldbuilder' post='324602' date='Nov 7 2008, 11:36 PM']Hello Flanker , I think you were the first person to buy a new Skjold in the UK . Be well , Pete Skjold[/quote] now thats something to be proud of

[quote name='Mike' post='324638' date='Nov 8 2008, 01:26 AM']If I gave a hoot about post-count, I'd post a meaningless message in here for the hell of it. But I don't. So I shan't.[/quote] +1

Excellent news. Had a great day and helped raise money for worthy causes. Marvellous!

*chin hits floor* ouch! mmm F-Bass!

[quote name='BigRedX' post='323818' date='Nov 6 2008, 10:57 PM']It's like someone took a Kramer Duke and beat it to death with a bling'd out ugly stick...[/quote]

[quote name='Prosebass' post='323621' date='Nov 6 2008, 05:59 PM']ouch.....hard words for a Warwick....you will reap the wrath of someone saying things like that.[/quote] who have ripped off Kramer?
