[quote name='theplumber' post='1063184' date='Dec 19 2010, 02:55 AM']Nice enough guitars...in fact guitar porn.....alright for a fly w**k.....but as we are all about playing music...not lusting over guitars...what kind of tunes are we playing on this stuff...and to who?[/quote] its only bass porn..nothing to get your knickers in a twist...

My word Chris..that one with the flame maple top is smokin...BUT..no GAS here... apart from a certain Lakland for sale.. they are way out of my league at the mo... My Modulus is all the bass i need, its the bomb..... ...but damn that Laky!!! PS i love the Prima artist's lower horn...looks a little like an Fbass.... he is really on his game.. i wonder how many people are put off by the frets..they shouldnt be

erm...got it..

sorry for wrong forum but where did that Lakland JO5 go that was for sale?

Just looking at the DingWall site..WOW..check the J basses out... Killer!! Sheldon Dingwall is pushing out some amazing work... the Z3 and Z2 are also impossibly beautiful..! i think his basses are way better looking than any out at the mo...just stunning..

Maybe things are turning to the internet for recording... but where is the live stuff..?

well im not wanting to be the next best thing..im really not interested in fame or money...i just want to get involved in something im passionate about with others who feel the same.... there arent many people who feel the same around here..

Have you ever up sticks and gone to another part of the country...im a single guy with no ties apart from my family..i just cant find the music around where i live that i want to get involved in.. im also temping work wise, so have no ties there either... im thinking of moving to either Bristol or London.. just me, my bass and my gear.. with obvious furniture etc..has anyone done this... it seems the music i really want to play is just not common around these parts...music is a very important part of my life so i have a bit of a dream...i think im accomplished enough as a bassist...im learning how to read also... i do recognise the music i love is not that common around my area...and there is nothing exciting music wise happening around where i live.. dont think i will ever be happy in my life if im not playing bass with a band that i dig.. any thoughts..

depends what its made of surely..

[quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='1062740' date='Dec 18 2010, 06:29 PM']you can recognise musicians by their signature tones. So it makes sense to seek your own. You should have enough control over your gear to get there in adverse conditions. Low beams probably help, break up the ceiling.[/quote] i agree with the OP...MR Foxen i agree and i dont... i think the important thing is to forge a style and personality from the way you play and your pesonality, not your tone..i sound different from another Modulus Jazz bassist because of my accent on the bass...nothing to do with tone..IMHO

Who here doesnt use any effects... i have never felt the need to use any..maybe im missing something? Not that i wouldnt but im just not knowlegable about effects... I used to have a Korg Effects unit but didnt feel the need to use any of the effects apart from a little reverb what are the effects you use the most and what music do you use it for..
