Yeah but Adam was that blue warlock acrylic? Cause the normal warlock's sound pretty tight just the acrylic kinda of have most of a bass guitar tone, no distortion.

If guitars were meant to be made of plastic, then trees would be plastic.

I've owned a couple floyd rose trem guitars. I'd suggest Not getting a "licensed" floyd Rose. They work perfectly for a couple/few yrs then the points wear down and wont stay in tune. If you're wanting a floyd style trem, find a model with an Original floyd rose. They're more expensive but well worth it.

It wasnt a blue acrylic warlock, just a blue warlock, still sounded tight.. The acrylics are just a showpiece i guess xD

I'll remember that.

A friend of mine has floyd rose trem, and he puts electrical tape over the saddles sometimes, because they're so sharp that they cause alot of string breaks.

Pretty kewl, hopefully I should be forming a band soon, just got to get a little better :-), what's your band called? Does it have a website? Also, please tell me, how do bassist's practice? Cause its not all the easy to hear bass in bands in my opinion

magical pig · « **Reply #42 on:** October 19, 2005, 09:19:32 PM »

That was our logo as my sig...no website- we played a pretty wide range of stuff too- kind of an altrock covers only band- some Alice in Chains, Greenday, Social Distortion, Kings of Leon, STP, Misfits, Dada, Elvis Costello, etc...
I have been playing for over 27 years- I am self taught and can't read a lick of music- basically played along with records (those black 12" round things with grooves in them for those who are too young to remember)- mostly blues and stuff- to get the basics, I graduated to jazz rock as I got better, then at 17, started joining bands around Minneapolis- I have done lots of music stuff, from commercial jingles to touring and making records in original bands- pretty much everything in between too...yes even the odd wedding here and there- I think I did one- it sucked so bad I said I would never do it again. atm. I still play around the house, and touring occasionally. but I am not too fond of that anymore. been there done that. Got to play at some great clubs and theaters, met a ton of great people, worked alot of hours playing and writing music, what a deal- I am very proud to say I supported myself as a musician for several years playing and writing the music I wanted to... I don't have the time or energy to devote to it anymore as I own 2 businesses and have a family life. more info than you wanted i bet!

If you can't hear the bass, it means your ears aren't well trained.
