    Leaving the scene of an accident after causing a 4 car pileup

    I'm reading Duffbeers posts and thinking 'this guy is winding everyone up' surely no sentient being can actually believe that tripe??? gobsmacked, I truly am.

    New Band = New Song List - Thoughts?

    Another Blues rock UK bassist here, further over in Bucks and I agree with Seabass, Stones songs always go down well, even if it seems a bit 'old hat' to be trotting out the same old choons. Our website also has a feedback option and we are starting to get some requests come through, usually...

    Your favorite album of 2011?

    five string basses with tight string spacing

    Indeed my Peavey Cirrus feels tight as hell compared to the 4 bangers, means I have to play much more precisely. On the flip side, rocking out the Jazz after playing the Cirrus is great!

    Recommend My bassist an amp!?

    Head/cab def better, 4 x10 will push a LOT more air than even a 2 x 15, Ashdown gear is pretty good shizz, and Buying British is great 'flag waving'!!

    It's never as bad as you think, It's never as good as you think

    Nice one dude, best of luck! I always seem to come off stage thinking 'thats was awful' to have people coming up saying how good it was, I usually put it down to them being drunk, but its happening an awful lot, so maybe being your own worst critic pays off.

    John East vs Audere Audio Preamps?

    Customer Service With John East is spot on! I don't live that far from John and he invited me over for coffee and a chat, showed me round and let me ask all the silly questions I wanted, and play before I bought. Made it very clear if I have any problems I can return with bass in hand for...

    Eden Cabs

    Thinking of getting an Eden 4 x 10 to a] replace my current Laney RB410 for smaller gigs, and b] complement above mentioned Laney for big 4ohm goodness when required. Thoughts? Am I barking up the wrong tree combining these 2? Currently running an Eden nemesis RS400 amp So it would be...
