  1. [quote name='molan' timestamp='1384622405' post='2278882'] We play [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Ebm, Abm, B, Db, Gb[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Ebm, B, Db, Gb[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]No idea if that's correct though![/font][/color] [/quote] That's what I think it is, and it seems to fit perfectly when you play it against the record. Thanks Barry [quote name='spongebob' timestamp='1384622599' post='2278885'] I used to gig it all the time a few years back, can't remember it at all now. Not much help, am I? [/quote] Memorable bass line then...
  2. There is a difference of opinion in my covers band about the last sung part of this song and what the chords to it are. It's the part that starts with " Over and in, last call for sin...." etc On the one hand you have those who think it's Ebm, Abm, B, Db, Gb Ebm, B, Db, Gb Then there are those who think it goes, Ebm, B, Abm, Db, Gb Ebm, Abm, B, Gb. Opinions? Ta
  3. It'd be interesting to see what sort of 'greeting' he gets from any bass players who read the comment who he then works with...
  4. Dave Vader used to be in one (still deps occasionally for them I think).
  5. My Yamaha and Ibanez are similarish in looks I suppose. I'd play either in any band, regardless of genre etc.
  6. [quote name='Conan' timestamp='1384355089' post='2275615'] True, but it is easier to wing it on bass than on guitar. [/quote] ...because no one takes any notice of a bass player for a start
  7. Poor guy, fancy being demoted to second guitar
  8. Just watched the entire programme on iPlayer, it was a struggle. A few times I nearly gave up. Nothing on there of any interest.
  9. Yamaha Pacifica?
  10. Must be someone 'under the hood' having a tweaks, there are a few strange phenomena at the moment For example, if I scroll down not this page is sort of doubled.
  11. [quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1383423996' post='2264415'] It'll never Cajon! [/quote] You forgot your coat
  12. I used to have a Rumble 350, it handled small venues with ease. Good range of tones and a good range of features. A couple of other basschatters have them.
  13. Not a problem I've been afflicted with

    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1383415269' post='2264281'] It's in the dictionary, you know...

  15. The BX500 looks very appealing for the money, and the Micro head for that matter.
  16. 20+ years ago when I first picked up a bass I used to really want a Warwick. They used to be stocked in my local music shop and they just looked 'it' for me. However, having tried them and owning a Rockbass Corvette I found I don't get on with how they hang and I really dislike the fat necks. They've got a great sound but to be honest I can get something similar, and something I actually prefer from the Yamaha I now own. So I no longer yearn for a Warwick. I also noticed that even at Mansons the other day there were none there...they had Zon's and some other expensive brands but I didn't see any Warwicks.
  17. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1383246889' post='2262180'] I don't quite see how a Hoover will help. [/quote] Perhaps it's turning into a fetish thread
  18. [quote name='Dingus' timestamp='1383312060' post='2263003'] Erotic image. [/quote] Think Audrey Hepburn
  19. Seen one, unfortunately didn't get a chance to play it. It terms of looks, yes it knocks spots off the Fender. It looks stunning in real life, i'd have öne.
  20. For the sound and money i think, like Lozz, a Hydrive 410. I saw a s/h öne in a music shop yesterday for £350...it also appeared quite compact.
  21. Genz probably won't exist by the time i could afford what i wanted, really wanted a genz rig. Enjoy your new rig
  22. I really do think if Carvin were more available in the UK they'd shift loads, I'm only ever hearing good things about them.
  23. There wasn't öne when i was at school. I did visit my old school a while ago and they've got a few Encores and Squiers now, all in bad shape it has to be said.
  24. I'm seriously considering turning it in on a band I'm in. I'm supposedly in because of the way I play but am being constantly pressured into playing in a way that is very not me...ie soloing etc. Just can't be arsed with it. And then there's the fact no one else seems to put any effort in. Thankfully however I've got another band, so not a total loss
