    Both... The options for work will be greater. Also when reading you really do need to listen to the other players. It helps so you are all phrasing together. Garry

    [quote name='SJA' post='348987' date='Dec 8 2008, 08:11 PM']the bit where it goes to Db is a lot like the opening phrase of Jaco's Teentown.[/quote] I was thinking of the chorus on 'Come on over' [Jaco solo album, the track with Sam & Dave on Vox] Garry

    [quote name='thepurpleblob' post='348960' date='Dec 8 2008, 07:42 PM']What's an NE worth do you recon? A bit of cash adjustment either way is perfectly possible. I don't see much more than 800 quid in the Yammie but it neither here nor there unless someone out there wants rid Just an idea, I'm just open to offers if someone can use a MM4[/quote] It depends on which model you are talking about. There are 2. The cheaper one comes in just under a grand. [url="http://av.uk.freeads.net/music/studio_+_band_equipment/Yamaha.+Nathan+East+Signature+Model+The+Nathan-178728.htm"]http://av.uk.freeads.net/music/studio_+_ba...than-178728.htm[/url] The dogs one around £1700.00. [url="http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Yamaha-BBNE2,-Gloss-White~ID~3446.asp"]http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Y...ite~ID~3446.asp[/url] So if you are talking about the cheaper one... You might be lucky and someone will take you on. Garry

    [quote name='thepurpleblob' post='348686' date='Dec 8 2008, 03:03 PM']I'd happily look at something like a Yamaha Nathan East[/quote] Have i got this right ? You want to swap a MM4 for a Nate East Yammy 5 string? Or is there cash involved? Just curious... Or has the market gone f@8k off tits up.. Garry

    [quote name='zigmondo' post='348926' date='Dec 8 2008, 06:56 PM']I can also say that the bassline is not original and is from a song of around 15-20 years earlier...blowed if I know which one though! S' OK: hose me down in napalm if I'm in error. [/quote] Also in the main riff, when it goes to the Db bit... Its a Jaco quote... And again...Blowed if i know which one though... Garry

    Toy Story meets Pulp Fiction. A mash up and half. Garry

    Phill allgaps.. There is a couple of more places he missed, where he could have put fills. Nice tone though. Garry

    [quote name='thepurpleblob' post='348466' date='Dec 8 2008, 11:51 AM']TRB-5p is still made. Don't forget that's the very fancy through neck one.... They're heavy money.... [url="http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Yamaha-TRB5PII~ID~2922.asp"]http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Y...PII~ID~2922.asp[/url] The older ones are very well regarded and should still fetch some proper money I would think.[/quote] You beat me to it..... If Trev does a deal for one of them [ Swap ] I think the boys done well.... Great Basses. Garry

    [quote name='stevie' post='346439' date='Dec 5 2008, 02:18 PM']The Louis Bellson book is also supposed to be good for practicing rhythm reading. I'm about to start going through it myself. [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0769233775/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&seller="]http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0769233...me=&seller=[/url][/quote] +1 on this book. My very first Bass Tutor [ Joe Muddel ] pushed me all the way with the Belson book. It all fell into place. Garry

    "I don't own a bass, Am I still allowed here" I cant see why not. No different to being just a Bass owner. Garry

    [quote name='BigBeefChief' post='341784' date='Dec 1 2008, 12:08 PM']Same ol'd BassChat - people pretending to be upset or insulted.[/quote] Thats why i said Recycle post..[ not boredom ] + the fact this topic has been roaring all over the world for Donkeys years, Or at least since Crockett and Tubbs rolled up there jacket sleeves.

    [quote name='Golchen' post='341682' date='Dec 1 2008, 10:18 AM']Personally I'm amazed at the amount of slap hate shown here. All this time I thought that I was escaping the guitarist 'contempt for other guitarists' syndrome by coming to a positive and engaging community, but I guess that it's a case of same poison, different bottle. There are opinions and there are blatantly negative and destructive statements, and both are alive and kicking at Basschat.[/quote] +1.. For christ sake its just another style. Fingers , Pick, Palm Mute, your cock... Does it really matter? I think this Post needs to be in the 'Recycling Unwanted Items' Postings. Or at least rename this one 'General Bass Ballshit' Garry

    [quote name='ARGH' post='341051' date='Nov 30 2008, 12:33 PM']If people think or say that being a Bassplayer is being a failed musician,play them Cream's 'Crossroads' live at the Fillmore,The entire "Ace of Spades" Lp by Motorhead,'Le Freak' or 'Good times by Chic or pretty much anything slaptastic by Larry Graham or Louis Johnson..or and this is the swinger..some classic Motown. And if they still have not changed their mind THEN KILL THEM.[/quote] Euthanasia Might be the correct term. [Brain dead already] Garry
