    The Renaissance Man Chords?

    Thread necro here. Would you be willing to share the transcription? I am trying to put the bass on sheet before I get my six string bass next week. I'm having some serious trouble from 0:21 - 0:24; 1:15-1:35; 1:45-2:30; and a few other spots. I've already spent a good four hours on this and...

    I just had a sad realization about technique on bass

    Standard slap open hammer / open hammer pluck slap anchored thumb floating thumb pick Seems like five techniques to me for 95% of songs. Only one more than the "easy" number you put. And to be honest, it's quite rare that you'll ever have to use open hammer slap as opposed to standard...

    How many watts for a club/pub gig for about 100 people?

    I have 515 watts (bi-amped) split between a 212 & 112 and I never put it past 8:30 position with a mic. I play in a metal band and shows range from 100-250 people usually. That said, if you don't have mic/PA capabilities, it would probably end up around 12-1 positions. My volume knob runs...

    Dan Briggs (Between the Buried and Me)

    I know Dustie as well and I can say he's just as humble and cool as Dan is. And from the looks of what I see with them speaking to one another, they're all the same way. :) Awesome story, great read.

    F# B E A D Question????

    Djent, sir. Djent. Meshuggah, Periphery, After the Burial, and the like. They don't use notes that low, BUT, that's because their bassists play the same octave as the guitars. Go lower. ;) Periphery is using F#BEAD on the new album coming this april.

    Is it the Bass, or the Player...

    It's almost all the player and his ability to put the right settings on his amp or recording. This isn't a bass, and the song is only like two notes, but the point i prove here is that I can get nearly the album sound done by a professional with $2000 guitars with an $80 bullet strat I got for...

    Worst Bands Ever

    Not really. I don't consider myself a vocalist and I sound just like him. Inhaled lows + exhaled highs from the back of the throat = Chelsea Grin replica. If you can do inhales properly there's no rasping to them. I think Chelsea Grin has incredibly simple music to play on all instruments...

    how to get bigger sound.

    That's exactly what all my cash goes for anyways. ;) That said, I'm taking advantage of the short time I still have with no bills to pay and no wife/kids to feed and support.:help:

    You got Mountain Dew? ;)

    how to get bigger sound.

    Politics don't interest me as a career. ;) And the only reason I don't have a job (there's literally over 100 places to work in walking distance here) is to focus on school. Once summer hits, I'm going to work.

    how to get bigger sound.

    Hah. That's not entirely possible anymore though! ;) In North Carolina, which I just moved out of, it was illegal to work at 14. You could work at 15 with a permit, but employers hated to hire because they required transportation from parents and whatnot; you had to live next to the area...
