QUOTE (OzMike @ Mar 13 2011, 05:04 AM) If you haven't listened to the (IMHO) classic and tasteful use of the technique, and 'hate it', then it's a matter of not being educated and informed.

"big long strides in the opposite direction" is what I'd say

[quote name='johnDeereJack' post='1145906' date='Mar 1 2011, 03:32 PM']I just bought another MKV Trace Elliot 1518 off eBay! This now means I'll have THREE MKV TE cabs - 1x1048 and 2x1518. The last MKV 1518 I bought had the original 15" 200watt Celestion driver replaced with a 15" 400watt Celestion driver. (not a bad thing!) THEN I find ANOTHER MKV 1518, this time 100% original, on ebay with a starting price of £50 (I got it for £70 all-in) I now all I need to do is hide this new one from the missus once it arrives, then find out which one sounds better coupled with the 1048 and my amp head then maybe sell the spare one! Or maybe I'll just keep it! I love old school Trace gear![/quote] couldnt agree more about the old trace stuff, put my (old) gear on "rigs at gigs" thread the other day but the new gear"ists" not impressed!

[quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='1136355' date='Feb 21 2011, 09:48 PM']No you're not alone, I don't like them either but I am polite and would never diss someone else's choice. However my approach to a mellower darker sound takes roots in the complete opposite direction, I only play round strings so how do I achieve that dark tone and mellow sound? I use my Mark Bass VLE Filter (Vintage Loudspeaker Emulator) cranked all the way to the right, and it works very well for me.[/quote] Don't take me TOO seriously, MR Wazz, yours politely Witterth

Allready posted but thought I'd share it here too!!

"Such a mean old man" whos still got it, BTW Deaf?? who said that?

[quote name='crez5150' post='1136488' date='Feb 21 2011, 10:58 PM']I wonder what David Cameron thinks about Peter Hook [/quote] Bit of a "Theme" for you recenty eh? Crez?

Sorry to wazz on this parade....I effin' hate flats!!! sound crepe to me! am I alone? oh...... I'll get me coat........

Where can I get a new pop shield for a SM58? the old ones done in, but hurting me lips, matron!! (sharp edges) I know they screw off so it can be done any leads guys? this whole thing sounds so "carry on " help me

[quote name='Beedster' post='1111827' date='Feb 1 2011, 11:43 PM']That's the great thing about playing La Bella flats mate, I've had the same sets on for years, and they sound better than when i first put them on! Couldn't ever go back to playing rounds and having to change them every few weeks 'cos they didn't intone any more. C[/quote] Flats? schmats! I hate flats. (jokes about "apartments/bungalows" need not apply) discuss....

I think Groucho said of Gerald Ford he "couldnt chew gum and walk at the same time" but its true, singing and bass playing is tough because you have to have two different beats in your mind at the same time, and thats why (save the jokes) Drummers are good at it....I know ,but really! they are. I can do it, but have to practice a lot, and look to the singer to make sure I'm not going "rargar"

[quote name='alexclaber' post='1133470' date='Feb 19 2011, 03:30 PM']Your best indication is to record the gig with a single mic in the audience and then you can hear how your sound compares to the other bassists'. Listening to your drummer playing your rig won't really tell you anything - the player is a far larger variable than any of the equipment.[/quote] MMMmmm lose the fender and buy a stingray thats the thing, you're a good player with good gear (lose the weak link) you just never heard it before!! only what I think, and all that!

An absolute Gentleman, and there arent many around these days bought some strings (well, 2 sets and may go back for more) from Matt in a hassle free, great comms,great price & Very accomodating way. if you're a basschatter this is your man to do business/buy/swap/trade with 100% reccomend Thanks Matt!! John

Where did you get the Jaco picture Mr D? I'd like one too!!

Anything by Oasis by was Bass biz , Or as Tony Moreneo called them "Owazzis" "Get Back"... though, if you dont often play with a pick( which I dont personally) check out Macca on the apple roof top gig. that "two note 'pleccy strum thing" staying in A mainly ....good fun, and if you do it right, ignoring a thousand badly played versions previously...well, now, you know what was wrong!! HA!
