Yeah. Maple.

Timmy Mallet is feeling Hot Hot Hot.. Utterly pointless awful record. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ov11DONu_Tg

Why.? i rest my case. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iz6iENNnf08[/media]

This is a sticky subject, as of course music is subjective. But.. there is some absolute garbage out there. I was subjected to this on saturday. Now I'm an open minded ear, but nothing prepared me for how sh*t this is. How on earth this record made money(and it did) is just beyond me. Alan Patridge's Monkey Tennis is a good idea compared to this. The thing that really did me in, is that the song changes key a lot. And it goes on and on and on, and i was subjected to the 12' version. Im not a musical snob, but you have draw the line somewhere. What is the actual point of this record. I have no idea.

[quote name='fleabag' timestamp='1484747256' post='3218026'] I not very excite [/quote]I do excite. But I wish he would get back to a great band he had with Emergency on Planet Earth/Travelling Without Moving etc. Dynamite was a cracker though.. I really don't dig Jamiroquai's electronic stuff. For me it takes away all what was great with the band. Maybe this may change my mind.? I think Jamiroquai made some fantastic music by the way, This is proper Jamiroquai imo, and Zender on a Warwick.

I just love this music. From the brains of Rasmus Faber on keys in the pink. fantastic horn section, great busy bass playing from the Mad Midget, Melo on vocals. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nI-XWEXEWVk&list=FLzVUqeF1SLjxa78y2gd03dQ&index=328[/media]

[quote name='Hamstar8' timestamp='1485032658' post='3220643'] Hi, I need help, I play a fender p with my fingers, problem is I have quite small hands, I've always found that I shred the skin on my last two fingers quite badly, I lube the old strings which helps a bit but with gigging quite a bit I need something else, so ... I want a clean punchy sound but with a smooth string what do you recommend? [/quote]Are you looking for flats or rounds, or in-between .?

I'm thinking that's an East also. Do you have any other pics of the unit. What's the tone like by the way with that Status neck. I presume it's very modern sounding.?

I think the neck on your bass is telling you something.Your hand cramping up, is of course a bad sign and can lead to other unhealthy problems. No strings will help you get more depth on your neck.. Imo

I think this is a great pop soul record from this guy and Daft Punk. A great bass fill's workout around those changes I've had this afternoon. Its a great record for practicing certain fills etc because of the space in between. Its a great record with the DP influence. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Kx-ke9RKww[/media]

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1485011894' post='3220393'] Just out of curiosity, where do you rest your thumb when playing the B string? Against the body, or on hardware e.g. pickup? [/quote]On the back pickup. It seems I like the tone there for a tighter B string. But I will put my thumb on the a string and rest my upper hand on the E and B string as well as left hand muting.

I will probably always use a 5 string now. It just works for me. I can play in positions i cant with a 4, and sixers are either too heavy, and i dont use the high C. The low B is always there for the music i play and love. So the 5ver is the perfect solution for me. I use the B string as a thumb rest and a mute. Does anyone else use this technique when playing a 5 string.

[quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1484748802' post='3218053'] There are definitely more than 3 players at once. I wonder if it's overdubs or if there were more in the band? Great stuff anyway, thanks! EDIT: I got to here from the comments on youtube, funky!

Thankyou.

[quote name='SpondonBassed' timestamp='1484743926' post='3217973'] Man! You're like some sorta super sleuthing muso hunter. Thanks for that. I'm bopping my nut off! [/quote]Ahh. Glad to be of service my friend. He plays bass on this also. No idea which parts.

My favourite singer of all time.Magical soul music.

This is just fantastic. !!!!!! Check out his keys playing at 19.00 and throughout... Just WOW. Cymone's bass playing great also. Did anyone know he did an album with Miles Davis also.??

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1484603254' post='3216807'] Unless the controls on your bass do something very different such as the filter EQ of the Wal or ACG, or they allow you to EQ each pickup separately, I really can't see the point as all they do is duplicate what you should already have available on your amp. [/quote]That depends on the preamp. As you know,some preamps have a sound that might be preferable to the player,that they can't get from there amplifier.

Could be a nice refine project for someone, might even be able to knock them downquite a bit. Why he's stated, it's in good condition is beyond me. Looks like he's just copied/pasted the description. Awsome basses though. I wonder what the pups/electronic s are like. https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/on-sale-yamaha-trb-6-6-string-bass-guitar-90-s-blue-green-%C2%A3999-only/1210421955
