[quote name='icastle' timestamp='1366579212' post='2054503'] Discreet or the bass..? [/quote] Yet another thread brought into disrepute by a mod

Oh God, that and tredders Shuker P on the same page. I've not had movements like that since I first saw Lesley Anne Down

Nice one, even the mild mannered Clark Kent had off days

[quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1366577389' post='2054459'] Yes. And who's the knacker playing it? He looks familiar, is it Scrofulous Hedgehog's bassist? [/quote] Just Google Crimewatch. Sorry I'm on here so much tonight, Satan The Sister In Law is here for a few days. She is watching The Village and I'm depressed enough thank you

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1366576347' post='2054436'] Question is, DOES IT BLEND? [/quote] Never mind this sillyness or the original topic, let's get to the important stuff. WHAT is that bass in your avatar discreet, nut width and weight as well please

Lots of food for thought folks, I thank you from the bottom of my wallet . Research on pedals methinks. Thanks again lads.

[quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1366549978' post='2053813'] I can imagine why some people get pissed off. It's mostly old people with very fixed ideas about things, like old people do, and they have plenty of other old people to reinforce their beliefs. I don't want to upset the smarter old people around here so I should point out I'm using 'old people' as a polite way to avoid saying 'thick people'. There are a handful of really great contributors who I think draw people in initially, but then they mostly bugger off again when they find out it's mostly thick people harping on about the same old bollocks for eternity. I can't comment on off-topic because I've been banned from there for years. Can't say I miss it much, it was like reading the Daily Mail. [/quote] There's always one who could start a fight in a convent isn't there. That is exactly the sort of negative, insulting, un neccessary comment that spoils it. Am I rising? No, not really, I'm old so it would be the same old bollocks from me.

Fee, bargain. Politics, discreet has mentioned right wingers kicking off. Left wingers obviously didn't . It does boil my urine with the lack of respect, and I'm with Skank on the politics because EVERYBODY has the right to an opinion and on politics NONE of us are right. It is subjective, however the abuse narks me. Having said that, discreet usually has me in fits of laughter so I will forgive his political naivity (however you spell it). So,Mods, fab job, fab site, all of the people............ Just to put it in perspective, I followed a link from here to some Twitter stuff regarding Boston. I was bordering on tears at the vitriol publically stated between some purported Americans and some purported Muslims. So much open hate it despaired me. So I went back to "basses for sale"!

Ok,I decided to ask here rather than in the Tech bit, hoping for as big and audience as possible. My basses sound good in the mix of the band (basses, not playing ) however, I do a lead part in "You really got me" and I do about 40 seconds of Jaco's version of Blackbird followed by barre chords intro to "Doctor Doctor" ( quiet, the punters love the numbers! ). The bass just does not sound really powerful and in your face when I do these parts despite it being heard very well in the mix. I currently do not use any pedals/effects of any kind. Is there some kind of pedal that will just give me that extra decibel, or is it just turn amp up then back down again? Answers here and not on a postcard please. Thanks in advance peeps. Karl.

I have no problem with the fee, I'm a gear tart who is never happy, bit of a game really . One unexpected side issue now is this. If I saw something on FEEBay that was nice bass, that our members would like a look at, I would contact the FEEBayer, inform them about Basschat, and tell them to join and put their bass up on here, free. I have probably introduced 15/20 new members that way. I can't do that now as they would obviously have to pay at least £7. There is a cracking Yam Att Special on there at the moment. He knows little about it. I have given him some info, however, I haven't recommended he put it on BC.

[quote name='Mr Fretbuzz' timestamp='1366204746' post='2049559'] No cant tell her as I'll have to tell her about the 4 bass books arriving and the strap plus I've just told her she's got a speeding ticket in the post :-D [/quote] Sit on the doorstep Saturday, car loaded,engine running, passport in hand

[quote name='Mr Fretbuzz' timestamp='1366201351' post='2049488'] What's just as annoying is ordering a Bass for delivery next Saturday when the wife is supposed to be working and her boss changes her shift so she'll be there when it arrives. I guess I'll have to tell her about it when it arrives :-D [/quote]
