dmccombe7 Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 [quote name='NowVertical' post='1152191' date='Mar 7 2011, 09:13 AM']Me from a few years back in a very rare rock excursion... And last year after far too many beers. The party was for a close friend who preferred the band to have a good time rather than being our usual professional selves. All it took was a couple of mistakes by me at 3.32 and the whole band is suddenly looking around at each other with those eyes saying "how we gonna get out of this one". [/quote] Loved the first clip - very satriani, beck, bruce sounding. What gear were you using for it. Nice sound. 2nd clip looks like a good night was had and the mistake wasn't that bad - honest !!!. On the night, after a few beers it was probably just the band that noticed. LOL !!! Cheers Dave Quote

How many amps do you need at your end of the stage I counted 5 rigs ? Good stuff - looked like a great gig Thanks Dave Quote
gafbass02 Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Cheers mine was the trace, the rest belonged to headliners Styx, they were just dummies the real ones were backstage. Where it was VERY loud! Quote

Cheers Dave [/quote] Thanks Dave...1st clip was my old ksd proto-J 5 string with the EBS circuit through a Warwick Profet head (provided by the main band so I do not know the model). To be honest what the camera mic is picking up is the foh sound so I would think the direct output from the head had very little colouration and what we are hearing is pretty much just the bass...Can't recommend KSD highly enough for a budget concious way of getting your hands on great playability and reasonable tone. As for the second clip...as you say it was pretty much just the band that would have noticed...apparently according to the audience we were really tight . Quote
WalMan Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 And then there was the video. I Know What I Like Kashmir - not much for me then Quote
73Jazz Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 (edited) 1st take, so not 100 percent accurate, i also had some rendering/picture sound synchronization problems. so this is the best result i can get out of it. Before you ask, the sunglasses are not for sale^^ they belong to my wife Edited March 17, 2011 by 73Jazz Quote

waldemar Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Here's my effort. A few mistakes, really needs more funky attitude from me, but it's getting there. One of my fave bass-lines (even though I still can't get it quite right...) Quote

The open string major 3rd chord things i was trying did sound out. I will have to check the intonation. Best regards, Mark Quote

You yourself, have something completely original going on Best regards, Mark BTW for any of the bass chatters looking on this thread. There are some great video contributions here from members I don’t really see posting in other topics very often. I would love to see the main regular members who advise us on amp and bass guitar tone, contribute some videos. I am a simple bloke. I will take advice and criticism of anyone if I think I can improve upon it. The same comes to bass and amp selection. Some members give a great deal of opinions expertise and advice on "This bass and that amp etc” Where possible I always trust my ears rather than my eyes when it comes to gear choice I really would enjoy any new videos that the members have to offer. Best regards, Mark Quote
