[QUOTE=Spaceman Spiff]That sentence makes no sense. If Cliff hadn't died, then there wouldn't be a post-Cliff Metallica.

And there should be a new album this year or next.[/QUOTE]
yer but i mean if he hadnt died, the music they made after the time when he died i might have liked (obviously he wouldnt have died, but if he had survived an carried on im saying)

Where is this flaming of the JoZ?

Winter closed and possibly deleted it

Tough sh[b]i[/b]t. I'm in a bad mood, so i don't much fancy going into how it matters not whether Cliff died or not (other than the world missing a truly great man), and how the post MoP era was actually good.

The roast thread for him.

[QUOTE=neal_672]Where is this flaming of the JoZ?[/QUOTE]
in the now locked thread the roast of the JoZ,
aptly named
although he was more burnt rather than roasted

It just cracked me up that someone might go back a month and bump it (by actually saying "bump", and nothing more) for no apparent reason. :amaze:

Yeah, some people are stupid.

Oh right the JoZ roast, that was fun...

right, didn't want to start a new thread so here goes:
what action height do u recommend for slap? i've only just really decided i should learn and was just wondering if their was an optimum height

cheers :thumb:

To be honest it makes very little difference, my4 string has high action and my 6 low both work just fine :thumb:

k
just wondering....its a lot harder than it looks....i'm frustrated already :upset:

You'll get the hang of it believe me :thumb: try something simple at first there are some decent excersises on mxtabs :thumb: popping takes a little getting used to but you'll get it!

ElKapitan, I find it easier to slap on my 4 string, which has higher action. I like a little bit of stiffness to the strings when I slap.

i suppose it doesn't help that i tune to D standard!?! i'll tune up and check out the lessons
i'm starting off with Higher Ground cos it sounds simple and is a cool song

Right i'm off for tea, ciao for now guys!

latos neal :wave:

You might just want to work a few basic octave patterns before you start into songs.

G|-----------3-4-7-|
D|--4-5-7-4------ 7|
A|----------1-2-5--|
E|-2-3-5-2-------5-|

Something to get the technique down? That's just a random thing.

Hey Ct!

I ****ing hate bass strings...

Hello MX :wave:

[QUOTE=neal_672]I ****ing hate bass strings...[/QUOTE]


The hell....?

I have snapped 3 strings in 2 months, and i'm muchos pissed off.

Ah....that's quite the feat. New or old ones?

Buy DR Strings :).

New. Every single time, hence the pissed off-ness, at £5 a string it's not a cheap thing!
