  1. One of my favourite bassists was endorsed by G&L so I played a few out interest. Never played a bad one, Tributes included.
  2. When I was playing in a covers band and a metal band, I used the same basses, just different FX. The basses stayed the same but amp or DI would change depending on the size of the gig.
  3. Were 4-and-20 virgins there?
  4. Old news, she's probably never heard of Rockbitch.
  5. I hope you still got paid?
  6. The least he could do is have an out of office message or an update on the website?
  7. "Crime won't crack itself!".
  8. Probably means no more cheeky spliffs before the gig 😉
  9. But have you ever forgotten to take it to a gig?
  10. This is where my Snapdragon folding bass comes into its own. It folds small enough to fit in my gig bag, and I wouldn't mind to lend it. Anyone wanting to use my Shuker's will be sadly disappointed.
  11. I came to bass from classical guitar, so started off with a pick - because of long nails on my picking hand. Since then it's been fingers all the way. But since getting a few bass synth pedals, they tend to be less glitchy with a pick. Maybe it's my technique? Pick = Big Stubby.
  12. Back in the day everyone fancied 'the blonde one'. But as you get older, a bit of life experience and maturity, looking back you realise that actually the attractive one, was the one with the beard.
  13. Does this mean Barefaced Machinist pedals are going to jump in value?
  14. Yeah Dave Parsons was a cutie wasn't he? He went on to mega success in the USA with Bush, after Transition Vamp.
  15. nope, based on the double bass extended neck rather than the Kubicki, no springs. I generally know when I'm going to need an open low D, but you can flip the clamps while playing.
  16. like C extension on a double bass, although mine is to D. The clamps turn and clamp on the E fret, and E flat fret. When both clamps are open I have an open low D.
  17. Worst Probably my custom earplugs, but only because I got them with the connecting string which is annoyingly microphonic. The slightest touch or movement on something reverberates down into the plugs and ears. Best This
  18. More Wham! / Slayer
  19. This absolutely should not work, but is awesome:
  20. Vim Fuego : I could play "Stairway To Heaven" when I was 12. Jimmy Page didn't actually write it until he was 22. I think that says quite a lot.
  21. I disagree with the 'i could never play like that' sentiment. If you were willing to practice 6 hours a day, and knew what to practice, in a year's time you'd be pretty close (figures may vary for the individual).
  22. The Lee Aaron I remember fondly from my teenage years? 😮
  23. £29.50 plus booking fee?
  24. They actually told you, rather than ghosting you. You haven't lost any money. None of your gear has been stolen. Take the win!
