  1. [quote name='Mr. Foxen' timestamp='1319024704' post='1408961'] Well, just called the depot, and they decided to not put it in a van today. [/quote] You've been blacklisted! That bass has probably been kicked around the depot, thrown into corners and been buried under heavy sh*t, for the last few days.
  2. [quote name='Grand Wazoo' timestamp='1319032715' post='1409112'] I think that one is a different variant, i.e. non Deluxe and non active / passive. [/quote] Yeah, it's a Modern Player. Like I said, I got the wrong page. But that Deluxe Jaguar is growing on me... Damn it!!
  3. [quote name='Grand Wazoo' timestamp='1318977650' post='1408626'] It seems they've made a mistake on the specs of these basses on their website, it says here one bridge Jazz bass pickup and neck Precision... they look both like jazz pickups to me, shame it would have been nice if they were a P/J configuration [/quote] this has the P pickup though: shame is doesn't have all the controls... EDIT: Ignore me, I got the wrong page on the fender website..
  4. I just use these: [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UK-MADE-3-75-WIDE-BIG-SOFTEE-REAL-LEATHER-GUITAR-STRAP-/200642385542?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item2eb737d686#ht_2069wt_766"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UK-MADE-3-75-WIDE-BIG-SOFTEE-REAL-LEATHER-GUITAR-STRAP-/200642385542?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item2eb737d686#ht_2069wt_766[/url] Tried a Mono but suffered from neck dive with it, on my Steve Harris P. Sold the strap got another of the ebay ones and problem solved.
  5. Love this track: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLiYoQEh8d4[/media]
  6. Currently I have: Bjork - Biophilia & Mastodon - The Hunter on loop Bjork's album is amazing. Mastodon's is slightly underwhelming in comparision.
  7. [quote name='GarethFlatlands' timestamp='1318334255' post='1400661'] Alembic Dragon Wing bass. I can't bring myself to post a picture. [/quote] Some of the description is bad enough!! [quote] Susan designed the Dragon's Claw peghead to coordinate with the Dragon's Wing body shape. The claw gives the impression of the Dragon extending his reach beyond the limits of the fingerboard, ready to ensnare those elusive notes. The carved bevel on the lower edge of the peghead balances the varied colors of the peghead with those of the body. The Shop Elves were well pleased on that carving day.[/quote]
  8. Here's my contribution. My Aria Pro II SB Elite: [sharedmedia=core:attachments:49285]
  9. [quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1318015491' post='1397391'] I'll get a listen to this version after work. She does have one of those voices you either love or hate. Post is a brilliant album (which this is from). My fave bassline to play on it is Army Of Me. It's a bit of a workout (not hard, just tough on my hand position). The notes are Bb, C, Bb, Ab, G, Bb, C. [/quote] I love this version: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQzRFwVFIKU[/media]
  10. My PF-500 doesn't like running into a single 4Ohm cab. Single 8Ohm or 2 8Ohms is fine though
  11. Stuff by [b]Puscifer[/b]. I'm a big fan of [b]TOOL[/b] and [b]APC[/b], but it's taken me this long to listen to Maynard's own stuff. I like it. The track with Milla Jovovich is very good.
  12. [b]Pop Will Eat Itself[/b] - New Noise Designed By A Sadist
  13. I've had this sort of interference with iPhones, Samsungs, Nokias and Sony Ericssons. For me the iPhone is no worse than the other manufacturers. But as [b]Hector[/b] says, switching to Aeroplane mode stops it. Of course, no one can send you a text or phone you either.
  14. [quote name='joe_bass' timestamp='1317578652' post='1391979'] They tend to come crawling back once the relationship is all over though. Suppose everyone has a friend like that anyway. [/quote] Or they realise they just sit there rotting in front of the TV night in, night out, and doing nothing constructive. Reading this makes me love my wife even more. She was more than happy for me to join a band, when the opportunity presented itself, 2 days after our daughter was born.
  15. Bah! I would come over for this, but I'll be in Coventry ready for the Supersonic Fest.
  16. [quote name='matski' timestamp='1317558203' post='1391728'] Has anyone mentioned Rob (The Bass Thing) Jones from The Wonder Stuff? [/quote] Nice choice! I'm liking Mark McCarthy's take on Rob's basslines. I can't wait to see The Wonder Stuff play Never Loved Elvis in December.
  17. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1317474694' post='1391089'] Isn't that the wrong way round? [/quote] There's this too:
  18. For that money I'd rather buy the Kurt sig Fender Jaguar:
  19. Currently playing: Nirvana - Nevermind Anniversary Edition...
  20. [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1317325757' post='1389602'] Martyn P Casey - The Bad Seeds Not technical but totally solid and unflappable, holds the Bad Seeds together [/quote] Totally agree with you! He's one of my favourite bassists. I love his Grinderman stuff...
  21. Just remembered another underrated one Morgan Nicholls (Senseless Things, then went on to be Murdoch Nicholls in Gorillaz)
  22. I love the bassline to this one: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q38F7_HSmss[/media] by Mr Morgan Nicholls (now know as Murdoch Nicholls)
  23. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Abr9-C_wmbo[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjcRBrITnOk[/media]
  24. This two files thing is a bit annoying: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbqrg6-XmsI[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ2rKBH-obY[/media]
