    Freedom to play

    Quite the same thing happened to me. Went to record our EP. First time on studio. Guitar and drums were ready, just bass, solos, and vocals to go. I was on fire that day and laid all our songs in the first go, not a single mistake, it took me about 40 minutes to finish (just 6 songs). The...

    recomend a fretless bass?

    I have a Cort B4fl. The old model, that one with Mightymite pickups... Tell you the truth, it has the most confortable neck I´ve ever seen, it´s trully smooth, but unfortunately it does not sound as good as it plays. I don´t know if it´s due to the fact that it have active...

    Entering the studio: give your suggestions!

    It´s done. My part is finished. It was one of easiest things I have ever done! I dropped my lines faster than the French dropped their guns in WW2... Most songs were recorded in the first try. Seems like practicing my ass off worked pretty well. I´ve lost the red light of doom fright...

    Entering the studio: give your suggestions!

    I´m working on the pratice bit. Actually, I know every song pretty well, and know everything I can do to change things if it doesn´t sound as good as I want. Those harmony classes are paying off right now... Interesting enough, I find it harder to nail down the notes with precision than just...

    Entering the studio: give your suggestions!

    That´s a thread for all of you hard seasoned sailors, I mean, bassists out there who have been in a studio before and know about the difficulties and joys of recording. I´m entering in a studio this weekend to record the bass lines for a split album my band is gonna release, and I´m a complete...

    few questions for steve

    If I´m not mistaken, he did that on Control Denied (Breaking the Broken I guess) and Dark Hall (Changing Weather). Actually, both tapping patterns are quite similar, at least that was the impression I had while listening to them. He used fretless in both recordings, right?

    Open Minded...

    Latelly I´ve been listening to "Cheiro de Vida" (Brazilian Prog/Funk/whatever) from the early 90s, The Hellecasters (Instrumental country music - GREAT stuff), random stuff from Nico Assumpção (Brazilian bassist, the best IMHO)... And Death Metal. =P

    I thought it was time to dig this up again...

    There you go, Way Back Machine to save the day: http://web.archive.org/web/20050910183707/http://dsrmusic.com/metaltab/text/guitarLessons/theLessons/sdigiorgioL2.html Some charts are (at least were when I looked) missing, but I guess not everything is lost.
