Going Bass

[kilroydegeek]

I've always desired an upright, but space and cost have always put me off. Until now (maybe)...

Yum! The Riley electric upright - around AU$1200-$1300

you lot and your guitars, basses etc. Its like instrument fetish club!!!

Jealous?

It's the organic thing. If they made a top-notch turntable out of wood, you'd get it.

Wood feels musical. I've played aluminium and stainless steel guitars that were flawless in sound and action, but they're cold - literally!

Wood, being an insulator, feels warm, and sunburst colours remind us of nature and warm sunshine.

That's the seat of guitar lust.

Yes, you're right, I am jealous. I want it all. I can see the appeal really.

One day when I get a digital camera of my own (my dad did my avatar pic for me) I'll post a pic of my percussion equip like my heartwood Djembe drum. I actually don't have any turntables but am instead a percussionist without the necessary preamp and top quality mike to record it all well.

I actually don't have any turntables...

My apologies, I presume again (takes foot from mouth.)

...but am instead a percussionist without the necessary preamp and top quality mike to record it all well.

Playstation Singstar starter pack. Throw away (or eBay, anyway) the game disk (unless you've got sisters and a playstation), keep the mics and audio adapter.

You shouldn't have to spend more than US$50 and I assure you, it's great gear for the price, really hot gear!

Groovy words Steve, <a href="http://www.ifingers.co.uk/electric/2006/09/07/the-seat-of-guitar-lust/">The seat of guitar lust</a>, I like that.
