Seems nice to live there! Hometown of John (of Hall & Oates) and Jaco Pastorius right? Sadly, most of people here, in Jakarta pretending to be someone else :(

What does this mean? Sorry I don't know slang too much hehehe

I think it's the same guitar here http://equipboard.com/pros/jeff-buckley/gibson-l-1 cmiiw(correct me if I'm wrong)

Please, no more legend. Hoping for justin bieber or one direction instead lol

Italy huh? I'm a fan of your food and Serie-A. I'm listening to some of your music too, Pavarotti, Ramazzotti, Paolo Belli, Moda

I heard, the last time people saw him touring with Portnoy and Billy Sheehan in 2012?

England huh? Cool! I'm listening to all your stuff. Beatles, Stones, Sex Pistols, Zeppelin, The Smiths, Stone Roses, Oasis, The Verve, James Bay, and the list goes on

Hey guys, I'm new here. Just found this site when I'm looking for Jack White's gear. And now I'm addicted to this site! I'm Tyo 22 y/o bass player from Indonesia. Nice to meet you all!

P.s. sorry for my bad english

P.s. again: any Indonesian here?

My 1st instrument was an acoustic brunswick guitar (I don't remember anything about the guitar, it's already broke almost 10 years ago). My dad bought it for me.

My 1st real instrument was a Rockwell (local, Indonesian brand) bass guitar, RB-32 series with J-Bass PU. Made 2009, my late grandpa gave me as a present for my 17th birthday on 2010. It's definitely not a great bass, but I'll always keep it with me no matter what happen for an emotional reason.

My 1st purchase with my own money was my 2004 MIJ Fender Precision Bass Sting Signature. It's a secondhand and not on the great condition (especially with the PU wnd the bridge) but, it's still gave me a goosebumps I met her for the 1st time.

I want to play like Duff McKagan (Guns n' Roses, Velvet Revolver)

No man, I really appreciate that. In my country (Indonesia) usually people with your experience doesn't want to share their knowledge. Not every person of course, but almost everyone

Thanks man, appreciate your way to telling others

I'm trying to use a palm mute, is that the right technique?

Honestly I'm not a huge fan of him. But I always listen to his Space Oddity everytime I need a courage. He is really a great performer (based on youtube, I never go to his concert, sadly)

I'm not finding the full muff yet in my town, but already played the nano. I can't compare it yet as I don't play the full muff. Thanks for the advice :)

Not really honestly. I'm not a fan of his guitar playing, but a HUGE fan of his vocal. He wrote a lot of good stuff and done a lot of great covers. I think he's underrated just because Stereophonics not selling well (idk in your country, but yes here in Indonesia). I'm glad you like his new album btw :D

Two fine lovers from Into The Sun are me and my girlfriend song. In Indonesia (where I live) many people love Parachute and Dead Meat from Friendly Fire

This is mine

1. Bass & Backing Vocal - Duff McKagan (Gn'R, Velvet Revolver)
2. Piano & Backing Vocal - Jamie Cullum
3. Vocal & Rythm Guitar - Kelly Jones (Stereophonics)
4. Drum - Charlie Watts (Stones)
5. Lead Guitar & Backing Vocal - John Mayer

Agree with you, Seann is the best Beatle kid. I love Into The Sun and Friendly Fire

Mississippi's Delta area? Because I like delta blues

in a word? size....

now for a long-winded response if "size" didn't cut it for you: to the best of my knowledge (which is extensive) the only difference is a smaller PCB and Hammond-style enclosure... the bass big muff is heavily based on the 80s/90s Russian muffs that are voiced to be a little fatter in the lows. Bassists pay big money for those older Russian muffs now. They suit the bass very well... but the sound is easy to replicate with commonly available components as its not so different from any other muff apart from a few resistor and capacitor value tweaks... for my buck I would get a nano, there is no good reason for a big muff to be housed in a huge enclosure other than tradition. I've owned a couple Russian muffs of various vintages and they sound very much like a big muff. If you like that sound then any variant can work, especially if you have nothing to compare it to in person. Side by side they can all be set to sound very similar, but Russian ones and bass branded ones will definitely produce more lows without having to turn the tone control as far down, leaving you with more treble than an American guitar muff will produce when set to flatter a bass.

Thanks mate

Ah, for the Pistols also because Sid. He used to be my hero (even the reason I picked up the bass)

I class them a guilty pleasure just because I'm not really into punk lol

What's the different? The feature? Quality? Price?

My guilty pleasure bands are: Oasis, Stereophonics, The All-American Rejects, Sex Pistols, The Cardigans, Matchbox Twenty

My favorite bassist are: Duff (GnR), Tetsuya (L'arc~en~Ciel), Billy Sheehan (Mr. Big), Bill Black (Elvis Presley), John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin).

Most overrated band? Greenday, arctic monkeys, some new band (or boy band) like 5 seconds of summer or something like that

Hey guys, I'm new here.

I'd like to know how to get mute sound like Jack did there. Did ye used a pedal? If he used a pedal, what pedal he used? Or any pedal who could replicate that sound? Honestly, I'm a fan of mute bass sound like what Bill Black did here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9BLw4W5KU8 I know he used an upright bass and there's no way a bass guitar could replicate the sound. But, is there any chance by using pedal or technique to get that sound? Sorry for my bad english btw. Thanks guys
