Members POGphile Posted May 18, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 18, 2006 OK let's clear this up stage presence was only the minor thing, people that we had try out were either unreliable potheads/druggies, tone deaf, too poor to afford decent equipment, no sense of timing... ... one, get this, HAD NO CAR!! and yes one was actually decent, but man he was such a knob and just plain annoying, are we picky? not really, we just wanted a RELIABLE, decent bassist with a decent equipment and decent personality ANYWAY, since I post it this on the effects forum, I'm really interested in hearing ways of getting around using a BASS What equipment and such.. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members POGphile Posted May 19, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 what is wrong with playing along a pre-recorded track with bass and some drum beats? what kind of equipment do people use for playback live? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DEICIDEL Posted May 20, 2006 Members Share Posted May 20, 2006 Get Warr guitar or Stick...? I want to form a duo with a drummer friend and came to that conclusion... It bridges the gap between guitar and bass. But learning to play it or coming up with your own style is another thing altogether... Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto have a duo thing going on...
