S/D Bassists #86 - Dollar Tree Romance

[Pelham Bleu]

So does anyone else find bandcamp to be just plain unfriendly to mobile?

Yes. Soundcloud mobile is even worse, IMO.

Haha sorry Rushing, I don't think so

It didn't come with pickup covers. I could certainly get some, but it would make playing finger style difficult I think.

It really does make it more difficult. They look super rad and I have some for mine but I ended up taking them off. I would like to get a P bass bridge cover, they look like they are smaller and would be less in the way. ...and Gawd dammit man...you are like the cirque du soleil when it comes to "flippin" basses....I want that P bass!

If I was posting things I would agree but I've gotten very comfortable navigating around Corey's demos.

Speaking of flipping basses, i'm seriously thinking of selling the new FireGlo Ric I got and getting one of the new 4003Ws instead.

That sounds more like buyers remorse than GAS.

Man they can't make a maple fretboard ric unless it's a special addition...

I don't like that if I minimize the bandcamp page it stops playing music. Other than that I have no issues.

 

[Blank_0101]

On iPhone bandcamp plays if I minimize the internet tab.

My issue is with apple and YouTube. It does shut off if you minimize it or close your screen, and it doesn't allow a large portion of seemingly random videos from playing on the mobile device.

Maybe a little but I just love the look of the walnut.

It's not clear if it is a limited edition or not. Street price is about the same as a standard 4003.

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

Yeah those walnut Rics look awesome.

 

[Blank_0101]

Damn there's a guy offering to trade for vintage gear and expensive gear with 9mm/45 ammo...

I think you'd need a Humvee to haul the 9mm equivalence of a vintage SVT in cost!

I have an Android phone, so half the time I can't even use Soundcloud mobile lol. Flash doesn't work on the Andoid OS right now I guess? It used to on my old phone. I'm almost always on my work PC or my iMac at home when I'm on Soundcloud anyway. Most of the good audio hosting services are terrible for mobile on one platform or another at a time, in my experience. Seems like if the software developers make a deal with either Android or Apple, the other gets freezed out and something doesn't work right...and they go back and forth depending on who is riding high that year lol.

Soundcloud and bandcamp both have a few little glitches but overall work fine on my Nexus which is an Android tablet.

I have a Droid Maxx and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It weirdly depends on what way I view the site, I think. Maybe it's that desktop view works and mobile view won't stream, can't remember at the moment. Like I said, I almost never use Soundcloud or Bandcamp on my phone, usually I just wait until I'm at a computer. Not difficult, since I'm in front of one more often than not during the work week.

 

[The_Janitor]

I haven't tried either soundcloud or bandcamp on my phone. So really, I have nothing to add.

You totally fudged the standard TB reply dude. I think you mean to say...

Haha, yeah I forgot. I'll write 5 page paper outlining my views and post it later on.

 

[Squanch72]

I dig those Cardinals! I would love to land the double pickup version!

Don't worry, you're not a supporting member, so I don't think you should be getting any demerits...this time. Don't forget to include waterfall plots or at least some graphs.
