Lots or a little, I'm just happy to be there.
- Cut Cynical per @digitalscream & @Alnico discussion/decision
- Corrections as noted by @mrkb ;
- Added updates from Strumjoughlamps and Flink_Poyd
- For clarity on the guitar parts; r=rhythm and g=lead/solos or undefined (ie some people have just said that they want to play guitar on a track without differentiating whether rhythm or lead).
re Midnight Hour ... I guess I could try the bass part if it means the song gets played, if I can borrow a bass from someone? (it's only 4 strings, so it can't be difficult, right??)I'm not going to try to distinguish between who's playing solo1, solo2 or lead parts in the chorus (etc), that'll just have to be sorted before or during the song. If 2+ people want a solo slot, just repeat the solo section of the song.
Thanks again for your help with this aspect.
I am no good at all this and it REALLY helps us make sense of this part of the event.
Very grateful for that.
Do you want cheap, midrange or really posh?
That bass line isn't difficult.
It's a technique with timing to start each little riff that makes up the bass line, that's all.
I've played bass on that song quite a few times and once you lock the timing of it into your mind it swings along easily.
If you need me to I can record something on one of my guitars and send it to you.
I'm sure @Bridgehouse could too and do a better job of it.
I dont mind dropping out of Midnight Hour, there's no solo, Bigjon is EXP so I'm happy to let a beginner have a bash.
So anyone wants a go at bashing out some chords with Bigjon to hide the mistakes, please be my guest.
Definitely *NOT* really posh. I've actually been thinking about getting a bass to mess about on, so this might help me make that decision ...
Your other choice is a home build/finish - I'll have the GSPBASSES build with me which you can try too - all up cost finished about 500 or so
MiM Precision sounds absolutely fine to me.
Sort of leading into why I want to come to this session, my lead guitar playing is poor. I need someone to point me in the right direction. Also if I am lacking in confidence, someone can confirm that with a get over yourself type comment.
So back to your bass playing, I can show you some stuff or confirm that you are a good player.
I'm no bass pro but I did play in a number of bands from 1980 to 2004 and 2008 to 2015 and dabble on double (not teaching this btw).
... so I'll happily do it.
Just have to keep count of the number of repetitions of each phrase
