Hi guys, just to change the subject a little, I'm trying to get a bass sound similar to this using my b3: Eraldo Bernocchi & Harold Budd - Six: and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions and also thankyou for all the other fantastic patches that you guys have come up with, I especially...

Layer on today I'm picking up a 6 string bass, this will be the first bass I've ever owned with more than 4 strings so I think there will be quite a big jump for me so does anyone have any tips or scales or exercises to allow !e to get used too have two extra strings

I'm a skint student and I'm looking to upgrade my Ashdown MAG 250 combo too a head and cab, I've already purchased an Ashdown 4x10 cab so I was wondering what you guys would recommend for a head, I play in a metal band doing local gigs and I have to compete with a 75w Peavy vipyr and a 50w Vox...

Hey guys, I play in a 5 piece metal/hardcore band which has two guitarist who have a total disregard to bassists which is rather annoying so could anyone recommend any amp tones that would help me cut through (they both have boosted MIDs so I don't think that boosting my MIDs would help), I have...

I play in a metal/hardcore/djent band, kind of bullet for my valentine meets djent and I currently use a marlin state of the art bass which is a surprisingly nice bass but I feel that I need something that is a lot better. I have a j bass body but I was also thinking of either an ibanez atk200...

What would be good replacement pick ups for a marlin state of the art bass, I mainly play metal

I need some help, I just picked up an ashdown mag 250 on the cheap as I desperately needed to get a bigger amp and I'm struggling to get a tone that cuts through the guitars in my band, which is a metal/hatdcore band
