I have annoucement to make. I know it’s rather sudden but the Stiff Little Fingers and I are now an item :slight_smile: . We met on Youtube when Suspect Device sneaked into my playlist. Since then we have been spending a lot of time together and as this is our one-week anniversary I thought I would mark the occasion with trying to cover Suspect :slight_smile:

The Moises - Transcribe! combination works really well for learning the song, and the recording was just the Thunderbird running through the Vintage sim on the Line6 POD.

Nice job. Looks like you certainly got a good plucking hand workout!!:smile::smile:. Maybe just a bit muddy or overly saturated with the mix, but then again it could just be my old worn out ears… Keep ‘em coming’…!!

Thanks @howard @Whying_Dutchman @Lanny !

The transitions were pretty tough but I managed most of them :wink: Punk bass has got to be so incredibly tight that it’s a real workout. Then again, one of the things I love about bass is the physicality of the instrument - you can’t get the same feeling from a keyboard

Oh you know how to flatter a guy :grinning:

Thanks man - you can’t take your eyes off a line like this for a second or it’ll jump you :grin:
