admit it, you're watching that clip again aren't you?

Thonk 10-15-2006 06:56 PM

Nah. I didn't watch it at all, actually. :p

I just remembered Fat Abbot from the South Park movie.

The Brad 10-15-2006 06:58 PM

We can work something out [I]Mega[/I]man.

Anyway, fatboy's momma is treating the cow to dinner. :D

Agreed, but I am biased because I would take a Warwick over Fender anyday seeing as I dislike Fender.

Phalanx 10-15-2006 07:04 PM

The only fenders I like are decent Squires, when you actually find a decent squire, there is little difference between a squire Jazz bass and a Fender Jazz bass. Call it ignorance but the only time im gonna buy a jazz bass is when it sounds great and is Squire (which is possible)

Pluperfect_Arson 10-15-2006 07:10 PM

I don't even like Fender-looking instruments like Sadowsky's and whatnot. The shape just bugs the crap out of me, and I think it is just so incredibly bland, though the Sadowsky's probably sound a ton better.

"Silence."

Scary* new song!

I played my friend scotts modified jazz, and actually liked it.


/lakland jazzes are alot better and look the same.

I like that alot. What are you using for the fat fuzzy distortion, and for the higher track that comes later. Hot tones.

PainKiller8191 10-15-2006 07:20 PM

hey gav i got my haircut too!
i made a thread called "updates"
i'm too lazy to fetch the link though, it's on the 2nd or third pages of the bass forum

[QUOTE=Akira;13447647]I like that alot. What are you using for the fat fuzzy distortion, and for the higher track that comes later. Hot tones.[/QUOTE]

Higher track? :p It's all looped, baby.

The fat fuzzy distortion is my ME-50B with a mid-boost and the metal distortion. The higher pitched part is the same two, plus a chorus + delay combo, and an octave up effect.

Akira 10-15-2006 07:25 PM

I meant higher in pitch. I really like that tone. The octave sounds ace.

BenJammin 10-15-2006 07:27 PM

[QUOTE=Akira;13447668]I meant higher in pitch. I really like that tone. The octave sounds ace.[/QUOTE]

It sounds like total a[size=2]ss[/size] on its own, but layered with other effects, I've found it to be extremely useful.

Akira 10-15-2006 07:30 PM

Would you recommend the ME-50B? It looks pretty cool. After using my BP200, it is so appealing to have everything labeled and not digitial in one screen.

BenJammin 10-15-2006 07:32 PM

[QUOTE=Akira;13447691]Would you recommend the ME-50B? It looks pretty cool. After using my BP200, it is so appealing to have everything labeled and not digitial in one screen.[/QUOTE]

Oh, absolutely. I find that having it totally analog is a great way to go. My biggest complaint is that sometimes I want to use 2 effects that are in the same section, but that's alright. I've had mine for 1.5 years and have really put it to use.

If you don't use a wide variety of effects, though, it might not be worth the price.

Akira 10-15-2006 07:35 PM

I probably won't get it because I don't use a lot of effects. I want to get a distortion unit, and maybe a delay. Along with my chorus, I think I would be pretty much set.

BenJammin 10-15-2006 07:37 PM

Yeah, in that case, don't bother. The money you'd spend on the ME-50B could be put toward individual pedals.

Someday, I plan on selling it off and buying individuals, but that's far from being a priority. I want to upgrade my bass and buy a cab first (in reverse order).

Akira 10-15-2006 07:44 PM

I think a six string comes before pedals. I have recently really been wanting the extra room. Only I am not going to be able to try out a BTB, so it is now between the SR506 and a Tune I played at Sam Ash. I suck at making big purchases - I hate spend large amounts of money at once.

:lol: I know the feeling. I want the gear, but don't want to spend the money.

Anyone watching the game?

I heavily regret not playing baseball when I was younger. I would've LOVED to be a pitcher...

BenJammin 10-15-2006 07:56 PM

I just never got into baseball.

I quit playing baseball about 2 years ago.

I played baseball when I was younger.

One of the more boring sports to play. I played that for two years. I also did track and field for two years with the 100M dash and high jump as my main events.

Wrestling was my thing, though, and I did that for six years. Coaches begged me to come back when I trasnferred back to my old high school. :p

PainKiller8191 10-15-2006 08:02 PM

holocaust memorial stuff, we're visiting all the major concentration/death camps and touring poland in general
anyway, i'm gone

They are tricking you.

They are actually going to gas you when you go into one.

[QUOTE=BenJammin;13447890]Wrastlin', eh?[/QUOTE]

Yes, wrestling. Everyone always seems to think it is just some homosexual sport since guys are rolling around on mats together with their tight, little singlets. :upset:
