Why do bass players need them. ?? Unless your playing a bass with 9 strings. A huge point of playing a bass is your in control of its sound

I think Mark has one now.

What a cracker from Billy. Had to dig deep down in to my soul groove collection for this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZAIyMFbDnA

Ok, ive decided to keep the Sire v7. Huge amount of interest, i just cant keep up with it. . If knowone has spotted it, its a V7 Vintage in a cream with maple FB and black blocks. Im gonna get a PG for it. Im thinking a very dark tortoise, or a white pearl. ? Any suggestions. ?

Someone with a little more knowledge will come along im sure, but a compressor seems like a good choice. It will level out everything. Other than that, just use your ears and your hands. Those are your best effects imo.

Apologies. Twas rather blunt.

Am I right in saying they don't offer multi layer guards or slanted edge guards.? Is it a pice of single ply, with a print behind.?

Mick you know the score. Im not reading until i see the candy.

Going through my record collection and i always come back to Patti Labelle. I love her voice. I also love this bassline and the record. nothing flashy, just groove. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVeBe5y0d9g

Ive looked. I cant find one. Talk Bass is a treasure trove of amazing second hand basses, but too far away.

I cant see any of these vids on my Mac. Still cant work out why.

[quote name='Danuman' timestamp='1500672940' post='3339603'] Yes, it's quite inconsequential. I stand by my opinion - but it's just that; I'm sorry for bringing a negative tone to a good natured thread. @Bubinga5, I've enjoyed many of your contributions, so thanks for sharing. I do hope you all don't mind my nitpicking. [/quote]Not at all. It's an interesting point.

Anyone own one.? MM +Jazz.

[quote name='Danuman' timestamp='1500654130' post='3339429'] Maybe I wasn't clear, but that is exactly my point! I'd much rather hear the occasional bum note than listen to mechanically 'cleaned up' vocals. [/quote] Yeah you threw me there. Are you saying that the vocals are digitally enhanced.?

[quote name='Danuman' timestamp='1500644228' post='3339342'] Just listen to the video you posted of I can't go for that. The vocals are chock-full of pitch correction artefacts. I suppose it's a bit peevish, but I can't genuinely enjoy live performances if there's that kind of tinkering going on. To me it sort of goes against what makes performing live music worthwhile. Edit: I'm sorry, I suppose there was really no need for me to bring it up. I enjoyed the video with Diane Birch. The additional posts just reminded me of how I felt about the show in general. [/quote]I think your asking for perfect pitch in a situation where they are playing live. Ive seen Stevie Wonder live, where he doesnt hit the right note. I overlook it. But yes i hear it. Do i care, not really. Thats the great thing about humans making music. Its human. If i want perfect, i will listen to a computer.

Totally slick band. Just amazing funk from Jam in the Van. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0H4mL3OW-4

[quote name='Danuman' timestamp='1500640028' post='3339284'] I liked the song with Diane, and I like the idea of the series, but the pitch correction in many of these recordings completely spoils it for me. [/quote] What do you mean.?
