The satin black one is currently right at the top of my GAS list.

[quote name='crashdesk' timestamp='1392298221' post='2366920'] Thanks again. Think I will use one of these, [url="http://proto-pic.co.uk/audio-adapter-1-4-to-3-5-mm-stereo/?gclid=CL2u9euaybwCFXGWtAodQVQAPw."]http://proto-pic.co....FXGWtAodQVQAPw.[/url] Bit cheaper :-) [/quote] personally I wouldn't use anything like that. The weight of a 6mm guitar lead stressing the tiny solder joints of the headphone socket is asking for trouble.

TC Electronic Polytune and something like this for a cable: [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Griffin-Guitar-Connect-iPhone-GC17122/dp/B003VWZJEQ"]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Griffin-Guitar-Connect-iPhone-GC17122/dp/B003VWZJEQ[/url]

I've got 6 wall hangers, upstairs, well out of the way of little fingers and dogs noses. 5 basses live in those and my most used bass lives is it's padded gigbag in the bedroom, ready to grab for practice/gigs.

[quote name='Wooks79' timestamp='1392122128' post='2364904'] I've never had any problems with my pf500, and ever since I've had it the fan has always been running as far as I have known. [/quote] the fan ran all the time on the 2 PF500s I had too.

The seller does other gauges too if anyone wonders

[quote name='WinterMute' timestamp='1392034541' post='2363772'] I'd never be able to find it in the dark then…. Might have to install a tracker. [/quote] Ah, finally I see how neck LEDs could be useful...

[quote name='phil.i.stein' timestamp='1391935851' post='2362682'] Victims Family. top bass-playing. imo. Have a Nice Day !!! [media]http://vimeo.com/85959282[/media] [/quote] Nice!! Not listened to these guys for a long time!

[quote name='WinterMute' timestamp='1391947639' post='2362828'] Not a great pic, but non-reflective black basses are buggers to photograph…. Bongo 5er in stealth, none more black. [url="http://s1356.photobucket.com/user/WinterMute16/media/Bongo_zps38aa04b3.jpg.html"][/url] [/quote] Need some black strings for that Bogseat...

[quote name='FlatEric' timestamp='1391777850' post='2361162'] Interesting! It's an SB - Elite ish?? It's been [i]"adapted"[/i] Definately a bit different. Cheers. [/quote] Poor thing!!

Favourite bass: my EBMM Stingray as it's light, comfortable and easy to play. Bass I play the most and gig: Fender Steve Harris, because it sounds bloody awesome!

I'm a big fan of [b]joegarcia[/b]'s band [url="http://www.anta.org.uk/"]ANTA[/url]. I shall be going to see them for the 5th or 6th time in a couple of weeks. I may even go and talk to Joe this time.

[quote name='joegarcia' timestamp='1391123750' post='2353675'] Turns out my mate Gareth bought this, he's well chuffed with it and thankfully is keeping it pink [/quote] Borrow it and play it at the Goblin gig!! It's sound awesome through your rig!!

You could probably get a good condition Pro-Ject Debut II for around that.

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1390393306' post='2344807'] For some reason lots of players seem to think using a pick = hammering the crap out of the strings. [/quote] Nah, that's finger style surely...

[quote name='lojo' timestamp='1390388212' post='2344718'] What does everyone do when they switch between pick and finger style during a set, adjust your output or use a limiter ? [/quote] I try to play harder with a pick to match the output when playing finger style.

You could always go for a Zoom B3 as it's an interface as well as a DI box and FX [quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1390310199' post='2343817'] Most strange. Does your Mac have an audio input (other than the AI unit)? [/quote] New iMacs don't have an audio in.

I tried a Moog exp pedal when I first got my B3 but it didn't work. So I waited a month until the zoom pedals were available and got one of those.

[quote name='kendall' timestamp='1389687896' post='2336837'] Clutch - Earth Rocker [/quote] It's a great album and a return to form, production wise, after Strange Cousins and Beale Street..

So the course starts today. Who actually signed up for it?

[quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1389382373' post='2333753'] Have you ever seen Sherlock? [/quote]

Definitely worth a visit. But.. [quote name='peteb' timestamp='1389289729' post='2332469'] Beware that he is a man with very definite views, which may not be the same as yours! That is not to say that your way of doing things is wrong, but be prepared to be challenged a bit - he never read the memo about the customer always being right!! However, he does know his stuff and he may give you a new perspective on certain types of gear, etc... [/quote] ^^^ That! But he is a friendly guy.

It's not really snakeskin though is it? It's like one of those awful "crackle" finishes Washburn were obsessed with in the late 80s

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1389011686' post='2328678'] All the big touring bands plan the set. That's how you put on a professional show. [/quote] Fugazi never used a setlist. They managed to have quite a successful career. [quote][font=Georgia, serif][size=4]Pitchfork: Yeah, you play without set lists. Is part of the communication that goes on knowing what you're gonna do next? You don't even talk about what you'll be playing each night?[/size][/font][font=Georgia, serif][size=4] Picciotto: Yeah, we have signals and we have... we have tons of stuff.[/size][/font][font=Georgia, serif][size=4] Pitchfork: Maybe what you've played the night before you wouldn't want to repeat as much?[/size][/font] [font=Georgia, serif][size=4]Picciotto: Alternating between the vocalists is kind of a template, and right before we go onstage, we pick the first song. So, let's say, "Alright, we're gonna start with 'Break'-- we know Ian's going to sing that, so we know that I'm gonna sing the second one, and people should be paying attention to what I'm doing." And then some songs... like "Number 5" has a hand signal; "Oh" has a hand signal. You know, it's just a weird language that we've developed.[/size][/font][/quote]
