Guest subaudio Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 It's finally happend, Im doing my first gig on double bass tonight after around 18 months of playing it, equally nervous and excited, I am also going to do away with the side dot's I sometimes use. It's the first gig for my new band so it draws a little bit of the pressure off me but not much. Any tips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Tut Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Just enjoy yourself man - I've started taking my NS4M out recently and just love it - kept the stickers that sub for side dots on though hee hee! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest subaudio Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Hi Guys, it went great ! really enjoyed it, there were a couple of little intonation fluffs on octaves and I got a bit carried away on an improv section but in all it went well. The sound man hadnt worked with an upright before so it took a little while to get a sound, but there were no feedback problems, so all was good. I really want to spend some time with my EBS pre/DI now and get a nice sound sorted for my next on gig on Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Tut Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Yup - I'm loving mine especially now I've got the confidence to gig with it. Very versatile as well with the magnetics giving a mega fretless sound and the piezo more of an upright vibe - that low B must really shake the rafters!!
