Muse, Plug In Baby.... anybody got the dots for it?
bobbass4k replied to thepurpleblob's topic in Theory and Technique
He plays it with in octave pedal in E standard. That UG tab is mostly right but the end of chorus 1 and chorus 2 is wrong. The note are right but he alternates octaves. So the end of chorus 1 is: G:--------: D:-12----: (obviously repeated) A:---------: E:-----10-: Chorus 2 is the same but that tab gives the lowest note so it's: G:-11-----: D:---------: etc. A:------9-: E:---------: I probably didn't explain that very well. -
[url="http://soundcloud.com/bobbass4k"]http://soundcloud.com/bobbass4k[/url] It's mostly for bouncing ideas off people, the noisefest with the weird title is part of a planned EP, every sound (except for the sample obviously) is produced by a bass, a guitar, and pedals, no production except level adjustments.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NTIg3wUz-I[/media] The most beautiful song ever written. That string coda is perfectly melodramatic but not cheesy or cliche. It is a song that I am proud to be incinerated to. Assuming I'm dead at the time.

DR Strings - Problems and no response from them in over 2 months.
bobbass4k replied to xilddx's topic in General Discussion
Qucik update: I emailed Anthony at DR and he said he'd send out a new .115 string immediately, but it would obviously take a while coming from america. Well I found a USPS box shoved behind a plant pot this morning (thank you royal mail....) so I've no idea when they arrived but the new .115 he'd promised and an entirely new pack have arrived. Very impressed. -
Very talented player and a very important person in music history. Shame she's gone completely cuckoo for coco puffs.

[quote name='Turk' post='1363611' date='Sep 5 2011, 11:35 PM']Incedentally, would C G C F have any adverse effect on the neck once it's set up ? What string gauge would be best for lessening the floppy 'four old boot laces' feel ?[/quote] DR DDT strings, I can't reccomend them enough for drop tuning, pricy, but worthwhile.

[quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='1362503' date='Sep 5 2011, 01:17 AM']Isn't that one potential difference?[/quote] It's called loads of things, Voltage, Potential Difference, Electromotive Force, Electrical Tension, (some are subtly different concepts but basically the same thing). Current is actually electrical current density, or conserved charge flow desnity, there's so many different names and terms for these things, that's kind of my point.

Resistance is for DC circuits, Impedance is the same concept (resistance to electron flow) but for AC circuits. There's little to no conceptual difference, just terminology. [quote name='Jack' post='1361329' date='Sep 3 2011, 09:17 PM']Whilst we're being educational, the word is 'impedance', not 'ohmage' or anything else of the like. You don't say 'kilometreage', you say 'distance'. One is the measurement and one is the unit. (I guess for some reason we do say 'footage' when measuring distance or area but I digress.)[/quote] Amperage is used for current, Voltage is used for, err... Voltage, Wattage is used for power, Ohmage seems fairly acceptable.

At what weight do you consider a bass to be heavy?
bobbass4k replied to Evil Undead's topic in General Discussion
My spector is about 5Kg (11lbs to those clinging to the past...), I never considered it heavy but everyone who plays it comments on the weight, the balance is perfect though and i have it at the perfect height. Plus my back is completely f***ed already, there isn't much more damage to be done. -

Hmm, it didn't occur to me it might be a QC issue, I'll shoot that guy an email and see what he says, I'd still be interested if anyone knows any shops that sell individuals though.

My low C has broken, anyone know of any shops that sell individual DR strings (specifically DDT)? I've had a look online and got zilch. I'll be going through London on monday so anything there would be ideal. The set is only a month old so I'd rather not fork out £30 and replace 3 perfectly good strings.

I'd say you don't a seperate bass for D standard and Drop C, I tune between them all the time and i've never had any problems. You probably don't need seperate one for E standard an Eb standard either, half a pitch isn't a whole lot, there shouldn't be any tuning issues or neck wear unless you do it a hell of a lot. If the problem is tuning time, i'd say just tune faster, or have stuff going on between songs, we used to retune a lot and we'd set little loops or noisescapes going beteen songs.

I have decided to trim the herd a bit, up for sale is: [b]AMT Slap Bass: [/b] Unique overdrive, in built compressor and very dramatic EQ controls. Can go from smooth round speaker distorting bassiness to high scratchy clanky twanginess. Never come across another pedal like it but I'm only playing with heavy fuzz these days so it's not getting used. I have sound samples somewhere that I'll dig out. Very Good Condition with box. [b]£40 Posted[/b] [b]Digitech/SFX Bad Monkey: [/b] Digitech Bad Monkey, in itself it is a very good tubescreamer clone. This one has been modded by Max (SilentFly) at SFX, full details [url="http://www.sfxsound.co.uk/mainpage.asp?page=badm"]here[/url]. This one has both the bass and mid switch mods. The stickers are a bit worn but it's in very good condition and with box.[b][s]£40 Posted[/s][/b] [b]SOLD[/b] [b]Devi Ever Cherry Pop: [/b] Ridiculously high gain silicon fuzz, very bassy and very loud, I've had this for a while but I just haven't used it in so long I can't justify keeping it. Currently discontinued and quite hard to find. In very good condition with box.[b]£80 Posted[/b] [b]3 Leaf Audio Groove Regulator : [/b] The best filter I've ever had, I just have no use for a filter anymore. Very Good condition with box and drawstring bag.[s][b]£100 Posted[/b][/s] [b]SOLD[/b] No specific pics but they're all in these board shots: Not looking for trades, all will be posted Royal Mail Special Delivery.

I need to move my simms-watts pa100. It's going 300 miles in the back of a van without me, so my naturally paranoia wants me to remove all the tubes and wrap them all in 50 feet of bubble wrap (possible exaggeration) and pack them seperately. I know the pre-amp tubes are fine but can I pop out the power tubes and put them back without biasing? Or should I just go to plan B and stuff the innards with bubble wrap (which is how Tayste shipped it to me and it survived).

Why do people take these things so personally. If you have an absolute lowest you'll accept and any offer under that will offend you, then just ask that price and say no offers. THEN you have a legitimate grievance, don't get offended because someone hasn't psychically guessed the price you actualy want for it. If you take offers, then expect some to be stupidly low, don't ask don't get.

On normal strings you don't want any less than a .115 for low B really, but you may have trouble stringing that on to a 4 string. If you don't want to switch gauge get some DR DDT's, I use heavy gauge now but I used to use standard gauge DDT's and the .105 was playable in low B, not perfect, but definitely playable. The .110 is playable in Low G (the G below low B ).
