hmm i'll be up for a jam (bass)

is any1 looking for bass lessons? 10 per hour pm me if ur interested

hmmm tony williams, dave weckl, jack dejonette

hmm well i'm definitely up for having a jam to see if im the bassist u want. PM with any arrangements

mm hmm well bryn, ive tried out the chord sequence and i can assure u it definitely does work!

hmm hmm, i wudnt mind getting into some heavy stuff, wud it b pretty intense?

Most ppl here won't give a shit but who ever knows me I'm coming back to Aberdeen. I've been chucked out the course in Edinburgh. I'll stay here at least for the rest of the year. Lewis Benzies

hmm. shit, i'm male what kind of style are the cuts?

i've got it i cud put 6 different types of strings on it and have it tuned all to either the same note or octaves

hmm im thinking maybe sumthing a like grafting the neck of another instrument to it- along those sort of lines.

I'm a bassist but i'm thinking someday when i have the money i'm gonna buy a fender strat just do to something to it to make it sound unusual, but i cant think what.

reason U dont have to start on A- a scale can b played in any key

oh yes Great!!!!!!!

right now Literally right now I'm listening to Miles Davis live at Filmore East (March 7, 1970) It is unbelievably intense and electric.

i dare some1 to write a whole set based on just the whole-tone scale.

hmm have u been called a ned perhaps?

what kind of bass amp wud be the most versitile kind to have - in accommodating a wide range of timbres and sonorities of bass.

I'm thinking of getting the electro-harmonix frequency analyser. What does every1 who's used it think of it? Also what's ur opinion on ring modulators in general?

fellow bassist u do mean as in bass version of accoustic guitar as opposed to a double bass?

cool I think what ur doing is a really good idea. Good luck to u. Maybe in the future u shud start a business customizing guitars!

Does anyone know what gives a warwick bass such a good tone and sonority

shit I just heard -Shit!

Possibly as back up I wouldn't be able to join ur band cos im living in edinburgh right now but i can probably fill in on the odd gig if ur keyboardist is involved in a freak accident and i'm available. I do come back to Aberdeen some weekends. bitchesbrewonwards@hotmail.com

Hey Hey Rory, it's Lewis. I wouldn't b able to b a regular member of ur band but i cud turn up to gigs evrytime im in aberdeen and probably pick up things wothout rehearsing. I cud play any of sevral instruments: -fretless bass if u need it, even if u have a bassist i can function in the higher ranges of the bass. -Almost Picolo Bass- i'm planning on fitting extra light picolo strings on my fretted bass and tuning it up a whole octave and then using an octave pedal sometimes. Its good for bass chords and altered tunings. I know u'll appreciate how experimental this is. -Tabla. I'd would b the only authentic accompaniment to ur sitar when ur doing the indian classical stuff. -Either my keys or ur micro-korg. U can speak to me about it in the moorings this sunday. Cheers.

hmmm I suppose so but theres no point cos the intervals are the same no matter what note u start on. If it was in a key u wudnt b able to tell from the scale alone. But in a practical situation some1 cud say 'chromatic scale in B' and that wud probably mean that the root was B. It definitely can't have a tonality, i know that.
