The bass doesnt get played much anymore, need to get some new, lighter strings for it some time

https://www.facebook.com/chris.berry.75286 well that's me if we're doing this.

FunkMetalBass 07-20-2012 10:11 AM

I forgot how tedious it was to shape a neck. I think I've already totalled about 6 hours of just carving and sanding, and it's nowhere near done yet. *le sigh*


Also, unsurprisingly, mine: http://www.facebook.com/funkmetalbass

You guys should feel priveleged, ive only got 70 friends and ive never actually added anyone before. Facebook is a strange place to me.

here is my url, just because i want to join in : http://www.facebook.com/adam.holloway.545

FunkMetalBass 07-20-2012 11:11 AM

So why are we all sharing facebook links? I must have missed that part of the conversation.

BenJammin 07-20-2012 01:20 PM

So that we can make using this forum obsolete.

You guys don't like that feeling of reminiscence every time you log in?

Also, I'm buying a die grinder today. For less than $10, I'm going to shave a whole lot of time off of carving this neck.

gaslight 07-21-2012 02:44 AM

I thought it was just dry humour, ie; this forum is already obsolete.

Az_Holl 07-21-2012 08:08 AM

yeah but its like our own private message board

thats pretty cool

gaslight 07-21-2012 10:38 AM

We are pretty cool.

Marshmallow chocolate biscuits that expired three years ago, yay or nay?

FunkMetalBass 07-21-2012 10:43 AM

Go for it. I would.

fatbandit 07-21-2012 06:07 PM

Gotta at least try one of them? Can't see it killing you, and if it tastes gash, just sack the rest off! :3

Az_Holl 07-23-2012 06:43 AM

Wooo monday night :)

fatbandit 07-24-2012 02:08 AM

What happens Monday night? :s

Az_Holl 07-25-2012 12:39 AM

The same thing that happens everynight, Pinky. We try to take over the world.

But mostly drink cask wine and refresh the casual hur hur

[quote=Az_Holl;18915862]Funny you should say that, just the other week my bookmark for MX stopped working because it was still going through musicians forums or something and it just expired.

So i had to change my bookmark like a sucker.

That name rings a bell.... but ... cant.... remember.

Either way, i cant imagine pwning anyone now, let alone years ago when i was the super suck.

Sup yo

What you up to Quatre, you still working at Berklee?

Az_Holl 07-28-2012 03:45 AM

fatbandit 07-28-2012 05:27 AM

Just went to see the dark knight rises. essentially, it's just not as good as the dark knight. anyone else seen it?

Pastorius 07-28-2012 05:56 AM

i thought as a movie it was better than the dark knight, but dark knight had joker so it wins

gaslight 07-28-2012 06:39 AM

Gotta wait till it shows on Foxtel before I catch it.

Az_Holl 07-28-2012 09:44 AM

im a pretty big batman fan, i reckon ill dig it. Not really a fan of anne hathaway, but friends have seen it and really enjoyed it

a friend told me the other day that they were meant to do another batman film after the clooney one, but because that movie wasnt that great they scrapped it.
I dont mind that movie, its a bit more of a throwback i guess and i dont like clooney at all, but its still fun every so often

Pastorius 07-28-2012 12:25 PM

Anne Hathaway was pretty awesome sexywise, and acting wise she was really good.

Kobaia 07-28-2012 02:45 PM

Nah I was being considered for a position. And when I didn't get it I figured it was time to move on. I'm in LA now. Phil just moved here too Adam is in NYC. Still in touch with all of those guys.

The Weegee pedal is an analog sample and hold rate reducer. It takes samples of the sine wave you're playing every so many fraction of a second. The crush knob ups time between the samples. Just like a bit crusher only with an analog signal. Designed and built by Drew at Wooly Effects.

Az_Holl 07-29-2012 03:05 AM

Thats pretty cool.

Hope all you dudes are doing well :)

So what you up to in LA?

fatbandit 07-29-2012 11:18 PM

Anne Hathaway actually pleasantly surprised me. Was not expecting much from her at all. Hardy's performance was massively physical, he has a big presence. But I found it offputting how obviously he was overdubbed in some sections, and I really didn't like their choice of voice for him.

Az_Holl 07-30-2012 05:35 AM

It would be cool to see at the movies i guess, but i imagine i'll wait until it comes out on dvd :p

This pretty much sums up my thoughts as well. I thought Hathaway pulled off the job amazingly well and, tbh, didn't look half bad in the leather suit.

My biggest beef with the voice used for Bane was just that it was hard to understand, though Nolan's version of Bane is far better than in previous Batman films where he was just a juiced up meat-head controlled by Poison Ivy and lacked any depth as a character.

I guess shouldn't be shocked by Hathaway's acting. I think she's proven herself as an actress in other films beyond her Disney days. I liked what she did (other than get topless, that is) in Havoc, even though the movie was only so-so.

Az_Holl 07-30-2012 09:10 AM

Yeah, Bane sucked bad in Batman & Robin. It also gave me a distaste for Uma Thurman, even though i still enjoy her in many movies, i cant shake a general dislike for her haha.

Same thing with Anne Hathaway, but id still like to see her in the film, cant be any worse than halle berry :(

Seems mainly Amurrcans had problems understanding Bane, I thought it was fine

[quote=Pastorius;18928576]Seems mainly Amurrcans had problems understanding Bane, I thought it was fine[/quote]

It was the muffled computerized voice (especially when it distorted when he yelled), not the accent, that made it difficult to understand.

fatbandit 07-30-2012 03:45 PM

Yeah, I found myself straining to hear what he was saying in some parts. The worst part is they obviously realised and overdubbed already, yet he's still unintelligible over the soundtrack sometimes and just generally muffled. Also, he's supposed to be Mexican or something isn't he? So why does he sound like Darth Vader doing a Sean Connery?

fatbandit 07-30-2012 03:46 PM

Need to go and watch Bronson soon. Bought it ages ago but not seen it yet. Bronson is an amazingly quirky guy, can't wait to see what Hardy did with it :)
