RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE

Altho' soul's not really my thing, I think this sounds real good Aggie amp's great btw

There's an Aguilar cab for sale on here somewhere (FLANKER) (lovely Green colour) if I were you I'd look at it .Then look for the head.......

Aguilar AG500 head/DB cab . Haven't tried/had anything better as yet. Mesa Boogie Walkabout Scout?

Went back again ,and all ok. They're pretty good,exactly what they say on the tin Wish it was the '80's again......

With a budget like that you could get a 1980's Trace Elliot PLUS A STATUS

No sound

Awesome!

Schecters are metal ...and of course Dean

Hope it all works out for ya. The price of lamb and wool will bne better than here anyway

I use a stool. It's got wooden legs. Unfortunately the cushion bit is flowery. It was my brothers I'm after some fake leather and a staple gun .

[quote name='thepurpleblob' post='476276' date='Apr 30 2009, 06:38 PM']My objection is pure prejudice... we cover Basket Case and American Idiot. I hate those songs... I know absolutely nothing about them except everything I've heard sounds dreadful. I seem to remember they covered "The Saints are Coming" which was just rude!! I think this is my repost to the current thread about songs that are easy and you like to play - this is about songs that are easy that I hate to play You can add "I Fought the Law" to that list and, before you say anything, I'm a big Clash fan. Nasty bass line on that though.[/quote] The Clash? Now that's a band I can't get on with

Nice collection

Cool bass. I agree with you Still thinking about the Dean Taxi bass in yellow tho'

Saw 'em a few years ago when I 1st got cable. MTV used to keep showing this outdoor gig . I found that slightly amateurish. I then saw them on TV at the Woodstock festival and thought they were rubbish. I bought single ''When I Come around'' and think that's really good. When I did a birthday gig a few years back ,we did'' basket case''. Great song that most cover bands do now as standard. About 3 years ago while playing my cds at work, colleague put American idiot on . I now have it,and think it's really good. I think that they are all very talented ,and also like the look of MD'S bass. Talking about bands that could be hated:NINE INCH NAILS !! More meat on an oxo cube, they sound more like Human League when they should be more like Ministry!

Have you tried Billy Sheehan?

I get driven by mr.Drums. No sense of direction,jolty at times but I'm not complaining.

What about a teacher? Or a DVD of a Bass player you like ?

I've noticed that not much bass stuff is advertised on flea bay these days. Go back to over a year,there was so much to drool over..

I was thinking the same question. Green is the colour ,surely

You have a good budget there. You seem to have a fairly good idea already. Things to think about: Scale length...shorter scale may be better if you play guitar already. 4or 5 string.....you did play guitar so you may miss a string or two. You'll get lots of advice here,and you may even purchase a good'un from someone on this forum.

Awesome bass! I detest garlic tho'. I think cats piss smells better! (Yes really) If it came with a case,get rid of the case. I could imagine you'll have to get high quality cleaner for the bass tho'. Let me know what polish(not poleish ) you go for if you do
