Lupit nyo guys kung mag-prog kayo.

I used to play bass (busy ako masyado sa work) and my influences include Yes and DT.

Hope to jam with you if I have the time..

Cheers!

i play bass... heavily influenced by prog rock (Yes, Dream Theater)...

lately i listen to a lot of jazz

Mike Portnoy - Dream Theater

Bill Bruford - Yes/King Crimson

Neil Peart - Rush

I just want to share this to my fellow bassists: www.basslobster.com

Check out the vids of Michael Manring, Victor Wooten, John Patitucci, Jaco, etc...

Cheers!

Shirts - Gap, RL

Pants - Levi's

Yes, Genesis, AC/DC, The Beatles, Black Sabbath

well , in my personal preference i like washburn's  crisp  sound  for bass guitar  po, but  i also like yamaha's 

tone as well

 

enki , long time no hear  musta n

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

i'm ok, bro. tks for asking. meron ako video clip ni victor wooten (yung super bassist ni bela fleck) in case you are interested.

does anyone have feedback about amps made by behringer?

i'm thinking of buying a bass combo amp and i've narrowed it down to a SWR LA15

and a behringer BX1200 pero mas mahal yung SWR.

any input is appreciated. thanks!

kung knobs lng,  if u know a little electronics then u cud actually replace it yourself, in some cases the contact cleaners cud do the trick , but with regards to selling  it , its actually your choice...

i agree, you could buy the pots (potentiometers) in any electronics store. just make sure of the value on them and be careful when you solder them on. poor soldering may affect your tone.

oo nga pareng enki  kakaibang  tapping  nga un

 

may mga  bass scales kb dyan ???

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Sorry pre wala akong libro sa scales. I used to have one pero nawala ko na. Even when I had it I never studied it that much. I just focused dun sa mga common scales at worked more (still working ) on my technique and timing.

Cheers!

Pasalamat tayo kay saito-san for that vid.

Rich, emailed you already.

swerte mo at naka attend ka sa clinic ni JP! :cool: simple lang yung intro ng overture 1928, nakakalito lang yung timing. speed and stamina talaga kailangan para tumugtog ng DT songs, especially that 25 minute monster song change of seasons!

 

isa pang hayop sa bass, si les claypool from primus!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Bro, JP is John Petrucci (guitars in DT).

Anyways, libre yung clinic ni JM and he played 3 songs with background tape accompaniment.

Pero kahit tape lang kasama nya, he was very focused and intense.

Actually, yung part na mahirap sa overture comes at the 0:42 mark - yung puro 16th note na sextuplets - hirap! The rest is still difficult pero playable.

Hayop nga si claypool. Kakaiba yung sense of melody and rhythm nya. Ang nakakabilib pa sa kanya is he is sings while playing those crazy bass lines.

wow nka attend ka pla ng bass clinic ni master john ... buti k p, but masyadong mataas n level n ung playing nya e, pro in the near future would love to learn  that  kind of bass playing

 

right now i'm trying  to learn funk ... FLEA style and some bass theories= katatapos ko lang sa rock bass theories e

pre, share ko sa iyo yung flea instructional clip ni saito-san if u r interested. just pm me ur email address.

ok bro, can i have your email, maliit lang naman yung file e.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Thanks pre!

Hope makapagjam tayo later (kaso next year pa uwi ko).

some cool songs/riffs i could play are: cowboys from hell - pantera, little wing - jimi hendrix, thats the way - led zeppelin, one - metallica, overture 1928 - dream theater

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Astig yung overture 1928! :boo:

I can play some part of it though I can never get the break at the start right.

I remember jumping out of my seat nung tinugtog ni JM yan dun sa Yupangco clinic nya.

I can also play a considerable part of Beyond This Life (also by DT) pero hindi continuous - kakapagod kasi.

xtra unleaded

Welcome brod! nice rig bro! :cool: i can give you a clip of a flea instructional if you want bro! really cool

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Thanks pre! :cool:

I'd appreciate the Flea clip though I'm more into prog rock (Yes/DT).

Nice to have a musician's thread in this cool community. :evil:

Nung elementary gusto ko yung scramble - yung pink na shaved ice na nilalagyan ng chocolate syrup at powdered milk.

We went to Seafood Club in Greenbelt 3 last night at around 8 o'clock for their Eat-All-You-Can Buffet.  They said we couldn't avail of the buffet as they were running low on food. Ala Carte na lang daw available.  What the heck are they advertising the Buffet for?  8 o'clock pa lang at ubos na ang pagkain at hindi na magdadagdag?

 

We left and went some place else.

 

Never going back to this place again.  Hope someone from Ayala gets to read this and reprimand this establishment.

Goddam! I had the same experience when my wife and I went there on her birthday. Plus, the demeanor of the waiters is better suited to a cheap barbershop than a restaurant.

I hope ok lang ito. I've been playing bass guitar for 13 years, though intermittently.

My present rig consists of a Washburn T-25 Taurus and a Boss ME-50B.

I'm saving to buy a Yamaha RBXJM2.

Cheers!
