Hey Lefty :) you sexy thing you

Psh, strings... Good strings website anyone? I need a set of Flat 5s. Impossible to find in the retail shops around here.

ehh im alright kinda tired, but its cool, how are you all

I'm good apart from the little case of insomnia I'm suffering from...

Edit:Bit late on the reply

how long without sleeping?

Thomastik Jazz Flatwound Bass 5 string
43-136. 43, 56, 70, 100, 136.

Hm, the only ones I found which are the right gauge (I need the 135+ gauge B)...

Anyone know anything about Thomastik? Because this is an experiment, but a d[b]a[/b]mned f[b]u[/b]cking expensive one. about 40 quid for a set of strings I may hate...

hates a strong word , you might just dislike them =P i say try em out

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=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:

cya president dead

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

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

so whast new chris

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?

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

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

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

:)

How's Maiden coming along?

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 :)

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

:confused:

Eddie: I think he refers to me trying to get into Maiden and other metal bands. Currently learning Phantom of the Opera, thanks to Justin :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

cool. How it going?

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 :/.

for passive? Were the pickups active or passive?

An idea.

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

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

The pickups themselves were passive.
