Interesting tuning there Ed. I would have guessed that the tuning would be the same relative tuning from the standard E. Thus (starting from the bass string) : B, E, A, D, F#, B. That way a traditional E shape would be a B major chord. But you're probably just using bar chords on the lowest...

Aha!!!! I think this could be the most significant factor in the guitar sound here (not the guit but the way it is strung up.) I thought of this idea for bass a few years back and never tried it--getting a 5-string set and using the lowest 4 on my 4-string bass. What stopped me was the...

Very Cool, Tim. Interesting song choice. It's just a little thing, but I think my favourite part of this is the way you played the "over me" part of the melody. So Sweet. I don't know why, but it makes me smile every time. This was done all DI? The sounds aren't bone-dry sounding, so I...

I listened to Junco 2. Not bad. This song is just screaming for at least a little percussion. The vox were a bit loud in relation to the music for my taste. The acoustic guit sounded a bit 'blah'. I don't know how it was recorded and can't really suggest anything about it. The bass part...

Overall good sounding. I'm wondering why you're even micing the hi-hat. In this recording it is the clearest, brightest sounding part of the drums, more so than the rest of the kit, so it sounds a little out of place--if you follow me.

You are correct, of course!!! I knew I was going to make some little mistake in that blurb! But that is sort of why I said pretty good instead of excellent. Can't wait for some BOMBTRAX. Whatever that is.

At the risk of being 'roughed off the board' I'm going to post some curse words without asterisks!!! If you are easily offended, stop reading now. Shit Fuck Motherfucker Fuck-ass Asshole Shithead Strawberry Fuck-off Fuckhead Now that's underground. And not only do I NOT use a 'fancy...

How about an Ampeg SVT head and an Ampeg 8x10 cab. Not exactly cheap, but it's a great, great rig.

Well, I like how there are asterisks inserted into the middle of many of the curse words without replacing any of the letters in the word !!! Why bother with the asterisks? Amusing. Sort of.

Ah. OK. I hadn't heard about that. Hmmmm. Not a great choice, in my opinion; not for that band anyway.

Wait a second. Paul Rodgers was in Queen? Hasn't it just been the same 4 guys in that band forever? That can't be right. Why the hell would they need him? All of them sing. I don't own a copy of every Queen record there ever was, so I can't be perfectly sure. But that just can't be right...

D-minor is the only chord I ever use. All those other chords are only so-so. ;)

I like that there are lots of different parts to this song. I kind of goes on a journey. Very cool. I'm visualizing a 3-piece band with either the guit player or the bass player singing. Am I right? I can see what others have said about the drum OH's being panned too wide. It also sounds...

Yeah, man. We're on the same page. We're even on the same paragraph!!! It's uncanny. Gotta get me some of that Hammerhead. Then I'll get to pick and choose among all the chicks.

Rami. Just got a listen of this one. Great, great, great. I think that this is my favourite of yours so far as well. I like the melodies and the general feel of this song. Very cool. Don't have any suggestions really. Except maybe that you should take all of 'The Bomb's' advice!!!! And...

Right. In my mind, I early discounted 'novelty' singers as even belonging to the discussion: William Shattner, or anyone else not normally associated with singing that had a go once or twice; that kind of thing. (I once heard on a 'bad music hour' radio show a song sung by the 'Leave it to...

Okay. Now we're on to something here!!! I retract my earlier vote and transfer it to Yoko!!!! (That should at least slightly appease the Dylan fans.)

Hmmmmmm....the only fact here is that you have opinions!!!!

Well that's pretty convenient. We'll just have to take your word for it then. So the next person who asks me who a great bass player is, I'll answer, "Flint Loveless!!! I've never actually heard him play, but according to himself, he's the best there is!! Therefore he must be!!" Don't know...

Well, some ass tried to give me negative rep for my simple list earlier in this thread and said I was a retard for liking the music of Primus and RHCP. I suspect it was the thread starter, but since it was unsigned, I can't prove it. You asked for opinions on 'bassists that rock'. I gave a...
