I'm going to clean up the end a bit... http://soundcloud.com/joevictim/blood-eagle | So, do any of you guys feel it's harder to play the slow stuff? I had a drummer that refused to play this song above, due to speed.

Especially in a three piece. Its hard to fill that void and even with weird effects going on, the drummer has to really step up. |

Think I broke up with 30 days of pain today. Great guys and all but just too many issues getting practices together... I'll wait and see if we can work it out but as of right now I'm just not feeling it. Updating sig :/.
Edit: lol listed wrong band.

Ric owners, do you remove the thumb screws for the mute pad? The other day one of mine fell out for the second time, and its freaking impossible to get it back into the spring. I had my tech do it for me last time. I think I'll just leave it out now. Been really thinking about replacing the bridge. |

If I dont what treble, I'd use my fretless P with flats that are like 10 years old. Oh yeah, traded strings with my friend, I bought him some new rounds, he gave me 10 year old flats...thump city what, what. |

Bad news is, I had to pull the plug on my monthly jam with friends after only an hour. Felt like someone was stabbing an ice pick into the center of my left shoulder joint when I tried to lift my arm to playing position.

If you get a aftermarket get the aluminum not brass bridge. Not worth the weight | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
