ped Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 See blog post here http://blog.basschat.co.uk/bass-book-giveaway/ So let's see what you have to offer... good luck! Quote
Mrbigstuff Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 With the so few double bassists on here I think we might as well conclude the draw now Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 I've just checked on Amazon and it's out of stock there, no image, no estimate date when it'll be back. Are you sitting on two rare editions, Chris? Quote
3below Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 I have a double bass, will this book tell me how to play lolx, since I have no technique whatsoever. Mighte help me know 'about the double bass'. Best regards. Quote
retroroach Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 This is a great book, full of useful info on setup etc. Even gives gauges of strimmer cable for use on slap bass! Quote

bassace Posted August 14, 2012 Posted August 14, 2012 Anyone owning a DB, or contemplating buying a DB should have a copy of this book. And there are plenty of DB people on BC, just how many of them are bloggers is a moot point. Quote
Gareth Hughes Posted August 14, 2012 Posted August 14, 2012 DONATE YOUR BODY TO SCIENCE, YOU FOOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How's that? Oh, and if Ped's been sitting on them - maybe not so valuable? Quote
keeponehandloose Posted August 14, 2012 Posted August 14, 2012 Please see my ad in the Wanted section.. Quote
BassTractor Posted August 14, 2012 Posted August 14, 2012 [quote name='ped' timestamp='1344885574' post='1770695'] I can sign them... value will rocket [/quote] Fine, but technically those machines are not called "rockets" but "moles". Before anyone asks, they're very inefficient in rock. best, bert Quote

So it surely isn't my responsibility. I think I better not even try to explain. I'll just dig an even bigger hole for myself. best, bert Quote

Mr Bassman Posted August 14, 2012 Posted August 14, 2012 If I won I'd donate a [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Jazz-Bass-Book-Technique/dp/0879307161/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1344981644&sr=8-1"]bass book[/url] which for some reason I have two as new copies (+ c.d.'s) for the next bass book giveaway.

It was a failed attempt to say the value will plummet to the degree that it goes underground. The machines used to dig huge holes in the planet are not called 'rockets', but are often called 'moles', Dunno the technical term. best, bert Quote

I guess I'm just not following you due to the fact that the books will blatantly be massively valuable if I sign them. You know it's true. Rocket moles. Quote
LukeFRC Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 whats a double bass? I found this forum by accident.... Quote
TheG Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Excellent book. I have a copy already but this is a must have!!! Even if you don't win go and buy a copy direct from the man himself. Quote
Dad3353 Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 @Bert... Please take the tablets; they're for your own good. You shouldn't go about waving that, either. You'll catch cold. Now get back into bed and wait for the nurse's visit. Yes, we'll take you for a walk around the park later, if you'll keep your pyjamas on this time... Quote
