  1. I'll be taking my new fuzz to practice tonight. I'm not convinced by this one myself so I may be told to not take it again.
  2. An invaluable piece of advice given to me by a great bassist "if you hit the wrong note, throw the guitarist an angry look. If you come in on the wrong beat, give the drummer a dirty look"
  3. Epiphone Thunderbird Vintage Pro with genuine Epiphone hard case. In excellent condition with just a paint chip on the headstock (see photo). Nearly new DR DDT strings. Possible exchange for Fender Precision or Ernie Ball USA SUB Stingray
  4. Did you? I'm sure if you put an extra couple hundred quid with it you could trade it in for a used Mexican P bass
  5. I was once told not to use my Orange amp again and to buy an Ampeg SVT classic because "that's the industry standard". As far as I know they're still looking for a replacement bassist.
  6. I've been in the office today so it's been headphones on all day and exploring new (to me) music. Emma Ruth Rundle was the highlight. Beautiful yet bleak and dark.
  7. Sabbra Cadabra - Black Sabbath
  8. That looks so half arsed. I like it
  9. This over complicated bridge was also not designed by an engineer, not a competent one anyway. What's the username of this bass butchering fool? I need to look up his creations
  10. Number of the Beast - Maiden
  11. Was he the dude with the incredibly complicated prototype bridge that claimed to solve all those problems no one ever has?
  12. European super state - Killing Joke
  13. I've just set up an old Squier P bass with the 4 heaviest from a 4 string set and tuned it to drop A#. I had to drill out the bridge for the heavier B string and file the nut. The truss rod needed a tweak as well. The other problem I had was the low string sounded muddier than a very muddy thing. I replaced the pickups with some cheap Tonerider pickups and now it sounds pretty decent.
  14. Demon Cleaner - Kyuss
  15. Black Mass - Electric Wizard
  16. Bird is the word - The Trashmen
  17. Flying Whales - Gojira
  18. Turbot lover - Judas Priest
  19. Wreck of the SS Needle - Cult Of Luna
  20. Burn the witch - Queens Of The Stone Age
  21. Generally a great tone in isolation won't work in a rock or metal mix. If it sounds like fried buttholes in isolation you're probably about right.
  22. Just turning down the middle frequencies in the EQ. Some basses and amps have the mids low even with the EQ set flat.
  23. 50 million year trip - Kyuss
  24. One - Metallica
  25. 2 become 1 - Spice Girls
