Simon. Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 I'm a bit further out than that, so it ain't me! 1 Quote
ubit Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 Bass isn't really the instrument to play loudly in a flat is it? 1 Quote

I'm a bit farther, near the Royal Infirmary, but my girlfriend is away right now so I turned up the amp a bit. Can you still hear it? And now? How about this? 3 Quote
Bassassin Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 Wouldn't have thought it would carry so far, me being out in West Lothian these days. Sorry, I'll knock it back to 10. 1 Quote
vantagepointrocks Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Definitely not me, I'm on other side of Edinburgh and don't plug the bass in when I practise. 1 Quote
dmccombe7 Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Don't stifle the bass, move house. I'm not in Edinburgh so its def not me. Dave 1 Quote
dave moffat Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Not me, I'm at least 80 miles away. ......see, said I needed to upgrade my amp 1 Quote

Raymondo Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 You'd have loved living next to me in the early Seventies . With my Laney 100w Klipp amp and Carlsbro 2x15 cab in my bedroom 😁 1 1 Quote
gjones Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 I'm sorry, I cracked, I just couldn't take it anymore. It's OK now, the lockdown Police arrived, gave me a sedative and removed my amp and bass, for my own safety. 1 2 Quote
oldslapper Posted June 1, 2020 Author Posted June 1, 2020 Oi you! Yes you in Rotherham, East Heringthorpe! Turn the low mids down if you can’t afford a headphone amp. I can hear it from here. Btw I hope you’re better since i heard you falling down the stairs... ....oh ...a slap solo. Well you deserved everything you get. Now turn DOWN!! Quote

ubit Posted June 2, 2020 Posted June 2, 2020 Back when I were a lad, we didn't have headphones or the like. If you wanted to practice you turned it up. Much to our elderly neighbours disgust. Kids these days don't know they're born! 1 Quote

My sisters tell me stories of them and Mum trying to stop the plates and ornaments rattling and falling off the shelves, whilst I was up in my room trying to emulate Burke Shelly. My Aunty ,who lived two doors away could here every "note" apparently. No one ever said a thing to me at the time . I suppose I should apologise to the rest of the street! 2 Quote

My Mum used to apologise to her and she would say oh, its nice to hear the young ones enjoying themselves. It was my Sister who complained. She would lay off that all I played were scales and that I kept making mistakes. Who learns and doesn't make mistakes? I don't speak to her now so stuff her anyway! 2 Quote
