[QUOTE=Left Shoe]how long without sleeping?[/QUOTE]
Well it's not really the lack of sleep right now but it's now 3:36 in the morning and I am not one bit tired which isn't normal.

So I am going for a walk, cya Mx :wave:

[QUOTE=fatbandit]Psh, I think I'll make a thread about it... Just to be different from the hundreds of other 'what strings?' threads around. Someone on here must have had experience with Thomastik.

I also need to stop starting nearly everything I write on here and on msn with 'psh'.[/QUOTE]
i say psh way too often as well

Left Shoe 05-21-2005 09:50 AM

cya president dead

fatbandit 05-21-2005 09:57 AM

Psh, I'm sure you do, but I refuse to enter a psh-ing competition with you.

Left Shoe 05-21-2005 10:00 AM

i dont do it on here unless im mock arguing, but on aim i over use it way too much.

so whast new chris

fatbandit 05-21-2005 10:05 AM

Not much really. Wanting new strings, being owed 500 quid by a friend, trying to transfer all my numbers after changing phone number (man, that's annoying), uhm, missing quality time with Amy, about to do exams. Gah, I really don't want to do GCSEs...

Fatbandit: Why not get D'aDarrio flats?

[url]http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/fg=102/g=bass/search/detail/base_pid/100363/[/url]

^^ Anyone ever used them? I only have experience with their flat chrome series... I'm thinking of getting them due to gauge.

fatbandit 05-21-2005 10:16 AM

Because all the D'addarios I saw were only 130 gauge.

Radiobass81 05-21-2005 10:18 AM

Take in mind flats have a higher tension (sp?) than rounds, so you don't need a heavy gauge to have a tight B.

:)

BassVirtuoso 05-21-2005 10:20 AM

How's Maiden coming along?

fatbandit 05-21-2005 10:21 AM

But the 135 can't hurt, right? I just want to make sure its all going good tensionwise. It would be a bitch to find out it was the wrong tension after I'd bought a set... And the link you posted was only up to a 105 gauge anyway I believe :)

Radiobass81 05-21-2005 10:28 AM

^^ That was a 4-string set, and that was a set I had in mind for myself :p.

Radio: You know the Dimarizio's you bought? You said they have 5 wires coming from them, did you just leave the un-needed ones because your circuity was passive? Im curious as im going to make my spector passive

It was four wires.

I can't really recall what me and my neighbor did... All of the wires were used, I think.

Eddie: Good, I guess :/.

Jamie 05-21-2005 10:40 AM

for passive? Were the pickups active or passive?

Radiobass81 05-21-2005 10:43 AM

An idea.

If I learn it by June, I could play the whole song on Basslines. That'd be fun.

Radiobass81 05-21-2005 10:43 AM

[QUOTE=jamie_dunce]for passive? Were the pickups active or passive?[/QUOTE]

The pickups themselves were passive.

BassVirtuoso 05-21-2005 10:44 AM

If you're doing rock, Phantom of the Opera live is quite the song.

Radiobass81 05-21-2005 10:47 AM

Jamie:

"Solder the red wire (the "hot wire") of each pickup to leg #2 of it's respective volume pot. Solder the green wire (the groung wire?) of each pickup to the back of it's respective volume pot. Solder the black and white wires together. Put a piece of tape on this part so it does not touch the wiring of any circuit. Wiring is complete."

[QUOTE=ROM]the song to do live in Fear Of The Dark by Iron Maiden[/QUOTE]

Fear of the Dark is nothing when it comes to difficulty, compared to Phantom of the Opera.

ROM 05-21-2005 11:00 AM

I know that but as fear of the dark being one of the greatest live songs ever

Rollo47 05-21-2005 11:02 AM

Fear of the Dark and No Woman No Cry (Bob Marley) are my two favourite live tracks to date.

ROM 05-21-2005 11:03 AM
