The filed flat frets area looks like it was done by a Bonobo with a rasp

Nah, you're thinking of a drummer. You heard about the drummer who was suicidal about his bad timing ? Threw himself behind a train. Baddum tish !

Bass solo at 4:36

Its possible yes, as basically, you dont actually fret the string on a fretless, and you wouldnt touch the fret on a fretted either. If you have a very low action, its quite hard But the sound of a sliding harmonic on fretted basses is nowhere near as distinct as a fretless

[quote name='JellyKnees' timestamp='1509467798' post='3399187'] God can't help you on this one, what with him not existing and everything... [/quote] There you go again. It has nothing to do with god. Amen means " and so say us " or something similar I dont have to be believe in god to say amen. Seems not only are you some keyboard phoney feminist warrior , you want to steer things in other directions You might like to get out more

[quote name='clivem' timestamp='1509467303' post='3399176'] There isn't a problem! You guys are making one where there isn't one! The OP complimented someone on their appearance, their playing, their instrument and their composition! That's it! Nothing more, nothing less! [/quote] Amen

[quote name='dyerseve' timestamp='1509382578' post='3398485'] Thanks mate. I was beginning to wonder. [/quote] You're not alone. Check the Daily Annoyances

Yup, i agree there's discrepancies in manufacturers figures, but not enough to really bother anyone that they're down on power. If say a TE 300 was 50 watts louder than xxxx 300 watt amp, there wouldn't be a noticable difference

So then, how loud is loud enough .. 200 watts ? If 450 watts is very loud indeed, then going to a 200 watt amp isnt going to make much difference, according to the maths

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1509013823' post='3395992'] The amp is capable, with a 4 Ohm load, of delivering 900 W. With two cabs, that'll probably be extremely loud, at full tilt. Do you [i]really [/i]play with that sound level..? [/quote] Its my understanding ( mainly from info on BC ) that 900 watts is not much louder than 450 watts. I've read on here that to hear a perceived doubling of volume, you need 10 times the power. EG to hear a doubling of volume from a 200 watt amp, one would need a 2000 watt amp, not a 400 watt amp. I could have got that wrong, so hopefully a leccy guru will shoot it down or agree

[quote name='Cato' timestamp='1508969875' post='3395776'] Sounds dangerously close to that guy who practices ear splitting solos while rest of the band is trying to discuss song arrangements, presumably because he's already decided what he's going to do in that song. As you say, a bullet dodged. [/quote] Ditto, but this gitwrist was already in the band when i joined. I left before we got too many rehearsals in , as i knew i was wasting my time

[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1508778352' post='3394369'] ...unless you are practicing some awesome moves/ shapes too? [/quote] I never considered that I think my busting a few shapes on stage days are over. I leave that to the gurning guitards

If you move your gear from a crowded TV room to another room, you're not wandering around. You simply moved to another room. I was under the impression that some want to wander about AS they're playing. Seems a tad daft and uneccessary

[quote name='Count Bassy' timestamp='1508758784' post='3394160'] Have some of us missed the point here? The Amplug plugs straight into the bass without a cable, and the headphones plug straight into the amplug. You don't need anywhere to put extra bits & Pieces and can walk from one room to another if required.The other solutions suggested all involve a free standing additional unit of some kind. I use a Tascam GTR 1, which is great, but I have to find somewere to put the trainer and if I want to move to a different chair, change room, or just want to wander around it becomes a bit of a pain. I have no idea how good the Amplug is aurally or technically, and obviously it does a lot less than some of the other ideas meantions, but conceptually it seems a great idea. [/quote] Is there a great need to wander around playing bass ? What's so bad about sitting in one spot while playing ? Its just practice, after all

Interesting note : Dave Grohl palyed drums for KJ in the early 2000's

He had a great sound indeed I saw them live at a CND rally at Trafalgar Square in 1980 Raven hadn't joined at this point, as Martin Glover ( Youth ) was still the KJ bassister http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBw3W3zh-ew

Bo Diddley is the only bloke that can play those

Do i need my own kit ?

I am that drummer
