1. Not sure what your question was. What it about the bass? Your picture doesn't seem to be appearing from the link.

  2. Yeah sorry I meant the bass he's playing lol

    I copied the link from a post by yeah in the main Echo Awards article, but it's coming up fine here...

    EDIT - ok, now it's not
  3. I'm sure it's the same bass as he used on that xmas song video.I prefered the sound of the Precision over the two Epiphones he's used so far.

    The Epiphone Rivoili bass guitars are great but the sound is a bit more 'round'. Think "A Man And A Woman", which Adam used an Epi Rivoli.

    I agree that something more agressive, like the P-Bass works better for Boots

The party was held in one of our network churches, and they have a fully equipped stage with PA, monitors, lights, drumkit and keyboard there. I brought my Squier Deluxe Strat, my Behringer AC112 and my Ibanez Fat Cat pedal. We decided I should do vocals, too. The pastor played keys, another friend played drums, but the bass player didn't come... well, however, it was great fun. During the second chorus another friend drove his motorcycle into the hall, and the woman whose birthday it was jumped on the backseat and had herself driven twice through the room while we kept rocking. I love our church network.

    Somebody youtubed a part of it:


    The sound quality is awful. Enjoy!

  6. So, some new performances, some new gear to ramble on about in this topic

    GOYB was performed with the same cream Tele, and Breathe got a gorgeous sunburnt Epiphone Casino Any tips on the model or so? (I only have seen Edge playing a Casino on the All Because Of You videoclip's recording in New York, and that was a Natural Finish one, not a sunburnst - any ideas?).

    PS - Is www.u2sound.com working anymore?

    He played the same/similar Casino for ABOY during the Vertigo tour aswell as the full electric performances of WGRYWH, not to mention the CD:UK performance of Miracle Drug. I have a feeling we might be seeing more of it this time around

    That and the lovely cream Telecaster. Oh guitar goodness



  9. I'd rather have the Casino to be honest, but sod it, can't deny that Teles. have class


  10. I must say--my Telecaster was an extension of my arms until I got my Casino. Whereas the Telecaster is fairly predictable, I find the Casino to be a bit rawer and have more character...if that makes sense. Both are wonderful instruments but there's something about the warm hearty sound of a Tele into my Vox AC50...with a touch of the Ibanez Tube Screamer...and delay

    The same could be said of my Explorer; I've only had it a couple of weeks now but already I've fallen in love with it in a way I never quite have with my Les Paul. I mean, I like my LP (it's currently in hospital being seen to, dodgy pickup selector among the main problems - nothing unexpected seeing as I never had it properly set-up when I first got it, considering I got it as it was when it left the Epiphone factory, and less said there the better ) but the Explorer is another beast altogether. Much cleaner tone, much more bite - hook it up through my FX kit and my 20w Yamaha practice amp and there's some groovy tones coming out of that mother

    All for £255 aswell...

    My checklist is currently at getting a better amp., although guitars-wise I'm paying a bit more heed to Yamaha axes right now, the latest Pacifica especially although I'm fascinated by some of their hollow-body ranges too...

    ...a Casino would, however, quite frankly, be awesome.
