I recently purchased a Sansamp Bass Driver Deluxe off eBay. I have wanted one of these for ages as it has all the features I wanted: - Multiple bass inputs - Controllable effects loop - DI - Great Sansamp tone (I have been using a RBI for years) The usability and sound is fantastic...

I have just started jamming with a band that tune their guitars to Drop A# (or Drop Bb). Low to high it is A#,F,A#,D#,G,C. I play on a 4 string Warwick Thumb NT. I have had to trial and error a bit with the strings to get the tension right. I seem to be doing okay at the moment with a set...

Ryan doesn't use picks. He is a finger freak. Has a lot of unusual techniques that i haven't seen anyone else use. He uses a few in 'Happy'. He has a double tapping technique where he taps octaves with his right hand. He frets the octaves with his left hand and taps the corresponding...

1 x PM to Daywalker has been sent. Cheers.

Here's me playing live a few months ago at a metal festival in Brisbane with my band D9. Photographer managed to snap me playing while a random jumped up on stage before stage diving. The funny thing is that i saw him stage dive but it wasn't until i saw this photo that i realised he had...
