marcus bell Posted December 27, 2008 Author Posted December 27, 2008 cheers for the comments guys, both positive and negative, sure i am influenced by mark king and his sound, but the way i wear my bass is up to me, the comfortable way for me is to wear it like that, i cant slap any other way to be honest...but cheers for the comments :), hope everyone has had a nice christmas and is now gearing up for the new year take care basss players, x Quote
steve-soar Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 awwwww. Happy New Year, I hope you get a Kingbass Mk II. Quote
6stringbassist Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 I've put up with comments about the height of my bass for years, I've never heard of Mark King. Quote
agoulding Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 no offence. but you look too chavvy to have such a cool bass. did you nick it? haha j/k. im sure youre a nice kid Quote
marcus bell Posted December 28, 2008 Author Posted December 28, 2008 haha chavvy, no i wouldnt dream of it ive got too much respect for the general community to be one of those thugs , i actually got given the bass by my dad, it was redundant in his cupboard after he bought his series 1, so he said when i got pretty good that i could have it, i started out at the age of around 8-9 on a white squier p bass special, which i would kill to get my hands on again it was lovely, but traded that for a squier jazz bass which is one of my favourite instruments , after id worked with my dad painting and decorating for a few months (i also got my spending money for hawaii) ... im hoping to get a few bass related things soon actually, slowly but surely i am going to get a cheap preamp for my jazz, along with a badass bridge a scratchplate, and modify my jazz which will include stripping the body down and painting it white, with a tortoise shell plate :):)... and an amp thanks guys, hope everyone else is okay on here, keep posting those piccies x Quote
GreeneKing Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 I'll refrain from calling you a nice 'kid' as I'm an old git who realises it's a bit patronising Great bass, I've always lusted after an Alembic. Jeez just sometimes I wish I was young - sometimes Quote
marcus bell Posted December 28, 2008 Author Posted December 28, 2008 haha thanks buddy, i dont mind alembic's they seem gorgeous to look at, but somehow i just dont think they cut it as an all rounder bass, im not knocking them as its just my opinion but i prefer a punchier slightly heavier tone, which imho the alembic's haevnt got, beautiful instruments though , any plans for a meet up next year? ?
