yeah, i just need to get the sansamp PBDDI and some cables, and then im gonna start buying some albums, and thin lizzy is pretty high on my list(i think im gonna start with Jailbreak and Live and dangerous) Phil Lynnott was one funky lookin Irish man! :lol:

ish.. i need new strings.. i was playing my old bass wich is equiped with Flatwounds, and discovered that flatwounds are made for my style of right hand playing.. my fingers kinda slips over them so i can reach high speed(and as a metal bassist thats a very good thing :p) and the Elixir's just slow me down... but im not always a fan of flatwounds sound, but with a Sansamp i guess i could overdrive it alittle so i lose the sig sound of it whenever i dont wanna have it that way.. i usually love them though....

I need a new bass, but I've got my eyes on something. A Yamaha BB605, anyone here played one? I really like it, and I can get it for about AUD$800, which is $500 of the usual retail price.

let me say.. Closer to the heart by Rush is WAY TO SHORT! :upset:

Mooooooo










I just thought id ad that in......

Does everyone just seem to skip my posts?



:lol: :upset:

sorry, i havent played it... the stores around here usually have one MM stingray, One Fender P, one Fender J, and then a lot of crap basses...(yeah... Warwicks... *creeps*)

[QUOTE=good rats]My god, why is the Casual all the way down here. Bump!
So I found the bass I am going to buy next, it is a Yamaha BB605, anyone else here ahd any experience with them?[/QUOTE]

I'm looking into the same thing right now. it's between yamaha's BB 605 and Ibanez's SR 505. I think I'll go test them on friday.

I've played the BB605 a fair bit, and I love it. It's really versatile and an all round nice bass. I think I'm gonna go with the BB605.

then get it asap! it looks sweet, too!

you know, when you find something yoou like, you should go for it right away... i wonder how many basses i was through in my mind before i got the geddy :lol:

This one is also good cause it's CHEAP. When I went to my music store, I looked at it, and thought, "woah, that's nice, it's gonna be expensive" And played something that I knew was in my price range, then the Bass Manager worker there came up and tlaked to me, and told me about, and I checked out teh price tag, and it was $1300. So it's all sweet, and I can get like $500 off as well.

anyone know a web page to change like inches or feets to meters or cms? i need sonme cables, and i have no idea how long stuff is when it says like 21 feet...

Ummm, search google for it. I'll take a quick look for you.

Thoose Monster Cables are 'kin expensive! :amaze:

i dont think i need anything more than 2 12feet cables... if im ever gonna need something more ill buy it then...

yeah.. i decided that i would play some bass today, but then i put on the Rush in Rio album and got stuck here.... well well.. i have band practice later....

Care Bears unite

I used to watch Care Bears all the time when I was young, they're awesome.

Hey guys, I'm back.

I am at school...

Needless to say, it's boring.

Hey All

How are we?

I just got back from seeing Don Giovanni (an opera, for those unenlightened), and it was absolutely awesome.

Well, I'm going to get back to walking around my school doing nothing.

Talk to you all when I get home.
