Oh get the new Hellborg ones I have no idea what they sound like, but they sure look good. edit: I just saw the price!

This is actually really quite good. Not my sort of music, but I enjoyed it very much, which possible says more than if it was my style. also, the MC guy sounds a little bit like scroobious Pip in places

My first ever "gig" (house party) I drank a lot of beer beforehand with nerves, then drank through a bottle of JD during the set, including gulping the last couple of inches in one go. Needless to say as the alc hit my system my playing got worse and worse, first speeding up to speed metal proportions (in a blues band), then to wrong keys, then to: get to the end, please just get to the end hazy stumblings. Straight after we stopped playing I went upstairs to bed. Missed the whole party.

Very good, A+

Ah you're a fan of UMP, very nice I've done their photos a few times, nice guys

Killing int he name of is pretty easy I'm working my way through RATM tab book now

Oh my, I want that, very much. And it's bonus day today But sadly not enough

Cheers guys, My partner took me to one side after I'd asked about trade in on my ASAT and said they sounded so different I couldn't give up my ASAT, I'd have to have both

So I tried a Rickenbacker out in the Bass Cellar this weekend, and I'd like to know whats the deal with them. Why are the older models so highly valued? Are the brand new ones that much worse? I think there were two in there, both very bad condition (one with replaced pickup) for 1300 and 1600 and to me they didn't play or sound any better than say my G&L. Is it market sentiment?

I have a two bass rule, main and backup, Mostly to keep spending in check, but also because I'm not good enough to warrant any more. I'd like to think one day I can say, hey, I should buy this or that because my current equipment limits me.

[quote name='NickThomas' post='99810' date='Dec 5 2007, 07:48 PM']If you decide the ASAT's not worth the extra grand I'd happily give you £395 for it lol[/quote] You can have the bass for 390 if you want, just as soon as I'm dead, you are welcome to pry it out of my hands. Edit. Please no one kill me.

I'd be interested to see how my custom shop USA ASAT stacked against a Tribby, If its the same pickups, neck and electronics then apart from the colour and matching headstock then it's probably not worth the extra grand on top.

Hmm, My two cents, if you can play along with a metronome in time, then bully for you, choose to practice with one or not. If you can't play along with one in time (like me) then your timing is out, practice with one till you can.

I have the Ibanez one and it’s really rather good: It’s very well made; can carry two basses easily on my back; lots of handles for holding in tight positions on the tube. Also, it stands up by itself; has lots of pockets and padding; and has very strong stitching. One Negative point: I walked a good 30 minutes in pouring rain with it on my back, since it sits so high above your head I couldn't cover it with an umbrella and the zips aren’t covered. For that reason I wouldn’t trust the bass inside to remain completely dry. They weren’t wet when I checked, but were moist. I on the other hand was completely wet through.

I like my Mesa Boogie walkabout, if you can find a secondhand one. 300W removable head 1x12 speaker. sounds good to me. light enough to carry around, big enough to use at outdoor festivals.

I hate the 80's and B.C. Rich, But that my friend is one a++ stunning bass
