Hi, and welcome to Basschat. When anyone begins to learn an instrument, it can be very confusing and difficult. I think you are trying to learn too much, too quickly and you are getting frustrated. I would suggest (if you can afford it) that you try to find a teacher who can teach you the basics of learning to play bass. Take it slowly, but enjoy it. Good luck.

Gothic metal 7 string widdlers Macbeth, never really found success. Despite excessive air-play, radio presenters only referred to them as "The Scottish band" which was confusing as they were Italian.

It is not just urban myth that when 60's flowery shirted popsters "Honeybus" sang " I can't let Maggie go" they actually did end up doing just that, try as they might to hold the mooring ropes at a charity ballooning day near Ipswich.

[quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1418202569' post='2627832'] Crosby Stills Nash and Young all had concerns in 1970 about their newest album sounding too like their previous one. It was eventually released to critical acclaim however. [/quote] Ah yes, "Deja entendu"

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1418259468' post='2628641'] All right, what the hell is going on in here? I'm having trouble getting to sleep - it's cold and I can't find my red pyjamas. [/quote] Nothing to see here so please move along.

2 members of comedy popsters Black Lace joined 3 members of Simply red and became Maroon 5

Muscle thighed shouty voiced pop queen Tina Turner used to be in a novelty musical duo with a french mastiff dog. The unlikely pairing was so unusual that Warner brothers decided to make a film about it in which she starred alongside Tom Hanks.

Why is Adam Sandler playing it?

I thought the early VM Jazzes had Duncan designed pickups on anyway. I've certainly seen a few advertised like that. Re the price, it's about right as it is at present. I just bought one of these in the UK for a mate over here for £151, and it's a minter. However, the upside of your one is that it's been played by a bloke I've never heard of, from a band I've never heard of and used to record the soundtrack of a film I've never heard of.

I've just had the brass side dots on my Status drilled out and refilled with white. Couldn't see a damn thing in low light so, to the OP, why not, if it works, it works.

Well, about 18,000 people on You Tube all seem to have tried Thunderstruck by AC/DC on every conceivable instrument including a string quartet, bagpipes and even banjo and spoons so why not give it a go Failing that, Xmas carols or Kashmir.

Well that went well didn't it?

That bloke from the Beautiful South (lead vox) always has a waist / chest height music stand on stage at every gig. Looks awful.

I had a CZ5000, brilliant bit of kit, now sadly sold on. However, I still have the original owners manual so if there are any CZ5000 fans out there who want to make a little donation to BC, I'll donate the manual although you'll have to wait until the 20th Dec for me to post it when I'm over next.

Shouldn't this be in "Aletrnative rock factfile" if it's about where the Who live?

[quote name='molan' timestamp='1417555211' post='2621758'] I've had a look at our shop actual selling prices and there's definitely not been a used bass price spike from our stock. The odd thing (given that we have to charge VAT, card fees and have relatively higher overheads to cover) is that EBay list prices are regularly higher than we're selling at. I've also seen used prices in other places as well that are almost as high as some new values. This is especially true of continental Europe pricing where new values (of anything not available for bulk purchase by Thomann) are sometimes a lot higher than UK. [/quote] +1. Over here in France, it is very rare to find a used bass at a price that is attractive. Maybe it's a European thing but they tend to want all their money back from when they bought it new 8 years ago. That's not a problem when it's some sought after piece that has actually gone up in price but there are a million adverts asking €700 for a MIM fender. It would actually be a little cheaper for me to buy a new Stingray from Bass Central (inc all the duties) than buy a late secondhand one here.

I leave the creativity (song-wise) to other people that are far better at it than me. My only creative input is in what I personally play on an instrument. At 16 (my first public paid gig and 46 years ago) I was going to change the world through rock music. We wrote songs, we took other people's songs and changed them a lot to put our stamp on them. Soon after, we realised we were sh*t at it. Yet, we found we could play a 15 minute version of Gloria, stick a bass solo, a lead solo and a drum solo in it, and get applause. That's when the creativity stopped

Thanks Pete and rodma. Most appreciated.

Thanks for that, I'll check it out.

If I wanted to change the pick-guard on a USA SUB 5 string to get rid of the office fire-escape look, is there a dedicated pick guard for it or would one for a Stingray 4 or classic 5 fit? Any info appreciated. Thanks

I'd love it. A few pics of the band with him up front is hardly going to damage the band's CV is it? And, what a great story.

Address the problem with the drummer = you might get it sorted. If it makes no difference, address it with the band = they might sack him. If they don't and you can't stand it, leave I've left bands in the past due to drummers banging about in between numbers at rehearsals. Life's too short.
