    Painting your guitar?

    Hiyall! I've got these cheapo gits laying around and I was thinking that since I also draw and paint somewhat decent, I'd like to customize some guitar with mee own artwork. Perhaps the dg-350 ibanez. But that'd take an airbrush, I'd also have a friend that has a set at his disposal but with...

    Rock solos on metal.

    Always have thought they're cooler than those too fast fiddle-diddle arpeggshreds. OR Am I just a jealous slowhanded bassist? :D Anyways, had some time and shredded this happy-ass little piece. :D http://www.mikseri.net/music/play.php?id=224355&type=hi I laughed like a maniac through those...

    "oldschool" Death-Metal.

    So, we got a band. It's called "Coprolith". It's a baby of the guitar-singer-composer, lately a good friend of mine. I play bass in two of his bands, We're starting out a third. But this is his "heartblood"-so to speak. We've been recording a demo of some six songs, this is the "slow"-one...

    Lasting crashes?

    Hello. I'm not the drummer of my band, but since our drummer is a quite bit of an alcoholic and has no cash at ALL, and in a need for new crash cymbals (which I'll be buying to get the band ahead) I want to know some LASTING brands on that subject???.. The last cymbals were Zjiltian stuff, a...

    I've got a friend, a drummer that might sell me a firebird at some 200 euros.. (Ows me money) Some other said that it isn't a good guitar, I havent tested it yet. ..But if it turns out to be OK, it sounds like a deal?.. :confused: That guitar has been under his bed for years, I tried to ask...

    Second level bassgear?

    As I stated in the "entry-level" thread, I'been quite well-off with the two combos i've been having the past 5-6 years. a Laney bc120 and some Marshall 80W.

    This is what I've been thinkin'.. Allthough a bassist I compose a lot, now, Ive been doing songs to E and A 'cause my 6-string guitar.. All dudes around play metal from B from their 7-strings, that's why I got me a 5-string bass. Recently saw baritone guitars that are made of longer scales and...

    Wrist problems with pick..help

    This is really bumming me out. I play bass in a metalband and a hard-rock type of a group, also acoustic in a folk-sort of a thing. I play with a pick, its just easier in terms of speed, attack and precision. But now my wrist is getting pains after and during every practice-sessions, can...

    bass Distortion?

    bbllaahhh.. I've been a dedicated clean-sound bassist, even if in a couple of metal bands. Tried something years ago, and just didn't find anything that didn't cut the lows or the "thump" from a palm-muted note. (No matter how much I've trained, I just can't beat the attack, speed and...

    cerwin-vega bg-250??

    A fellow is trying to sell me a cerwin-vega bg-250 bass amp. and a 2x15" cab at a horrendous 1500 euros.. It is a rare amp around here (Finland) and has been played by some serious local Legend, but still, isn't that overpriced to hell??.. I mean, 500w Warwick stack would cost me approx. a...

    cad drum set

    man, even if these are crap, I got a bargain. Bought a five piece CAD drum set at 120 euros, from a dude I tattoo. Some friend of his keeps a company maintaining club/bar audiosystems, and switching importers had to get rid of old stock. But didn't see any reviews on the internet though.. Just...
