Learning pink floyd, the wall album.

Any tips or etc. Ive got in the flesh down and starting on thin ice.

Pick with Roto flats, and a Hipshot Detuner will be your friend.
Have fun with Young Lust, really fun tune.

Thanks, did not think about the pick. I would love a hipshot, escpically since im going to be playing along side vinyl.

I can think of no better excuse to buy a fretless than for "Hey You."

 

[Bc2112]

Any excuse to get a new bass is a good one, will the song still sound good without?

 

[garp]

"Hey You" isn't a song that I hear covered very often, so I suppose "good" is relative. I know that Guy Pratt plays it on fretless, as does the guy from the Australian PF.

Do you know a cheap hipshot that wont damage my bass?

As does Ian Cattel of Brit Floyd, IMHO the greatest tribute band. period. Floyd or otherwise. ymmv

Now that's interesting... Having seen both, I thought Aussie Floyd was better. The Brits are good, yes, but the Aussies just have an intangible something else that puts them over the top. (Not to mention the imprimatur of Gilmour et al.)

No grudges toward anyone, of course. It's not like one can suck and play in a pro-grade band with that material.

Hey! Let's stage a Floyd tribute battle of the bands!

Enjoy the path! Starting to think a D-tuner is in my future at some point too...
