The long and winding road - The Beatles

Maggots at the party - Combichrist

Does the B14 allow you to blend in some clean signal? I'm thinking of buying one for my daughter for Christmas, she wants some effects so a Zoom multi effect makes sense. Might stop her stealing my stuff.

They're too crunchy. I'm not sure if that makes sense to anyone but me but it makes sense to me.

This was the song that killed the chilli Peppers for me. Its the point where they went from great to bland.

Virtual insanity - Jamiraqui

Gobshite - Bandages

New World Order - Ministry

You could use a Boss ABY to blend in some clean tone. I've got an Orange Fur Coat which I think is similar to the Pigtronix Octava although with a useless (for bass) octave blend. I do use a Le Bass and quite like it with both channels in the cold fusion setting. I'm making a bar to connect the two foot switches to make it easier to switch both together.

Sunspots - Nine Inch Nails

I really like a Proco Rat for fuzz tones and just a high gain valve amp for a nice bit of drive. I've tried a few overdrive pedals and nothing seems to sound quite as good as a dirty amp. Having said that, I'm quite tempted by the Tech 21 Geddy Lee preamp.

Planets 1 & 2 - Vista Chino

Darkglass effects seem to suit a very specific metal sound. They're bloody awful if you're playing doom, death or even stuff like Megadeath & Metallica.

Thunderbirds are go - Busted I'm embarrassed to admit I know this song exists

Hand that feeds - Nine Inch Nails

This morning I'm enjoying Rancid's masterpiece, And Out Come The Wolves. This has to be one of the all time greatest punk albums. Matt Freeman's bass throughout the album is absolutely superb.

F**k world trade - Leftover Crack

Ruby Soho - Rancid

Maggies Farm - Rage Against The Machine

I don't mind the headstock. I thought it sounded a bit weak but thinking about it now, I didn't change any amp settings between the Sire and my Stingray which has quite hot pickups. If I took the time to adjust the eq and gain etc I might have liked it more. To be honest, it could have been the best bass in the world and I'd still tell him it sucks

I tried our guitarists Sire P7 mk2 5 string and thought it's a nice bass for the price. Better made and equipped than the 5 string MM SUB 5 which was similarly priced.

Gobblers of dregs - Mastodon

That's the thought I took from their video. The smug was immense

Lay lady lay - Robert Dylan

Pusherman - Curtis Mayfield See, I know stuff that isn't metal as well.
