Loving the more informative emails

I'm loving the more informative emails that are coming through now. I had, to be honest, given up on trying to keep track of threaded discussions but getting the updates to a discussion in my inbox,…Continue

"Do you use Facebook? If so, there is a very active 4ths tuning group on there: http://www.facebook.com/groups/183968224067/ I first heard of it in connection with Deidre Cartwright (British jazz guitarist) although I don't have facts and…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Greg Newhouse's discussion 'Starting with what we've got.' in the group Electric Guitarists
"It does take some work. I started on the six string bass, already tuned in 4ths. In effect it was like putting a capo on the third fret and it took me quite a while to get back to my (relatively rudimentary) level of sight reading. It also led to a…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Greg Newhouse's discussion 'Starting with what we've got.' in the group Electric Guitarists
"Having both my electric bass and my electric guitar tuned in 4ths from D to Eb (ie. an octave apart and with the guitar starting a tone down from standard tuning) probably helps me in that respect. It means that I get a different set of open strings…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Robert MacFarland's discussion 'Not a dummer/what to do?'
"Picking up ideas from recordings is an excellent and time honoured tradition; it is trying to apply them directly to the same song that can be a bit brain dead. For example, a fairly standard band for the likes of Matt Redman seems to be acoustic…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Robert MacFarland's discussion 'Not a dummer/what to do?'
"I hope you're not lumping me with the "play it like the CD" crowd! Creating arrangements - either figuring out the part I might play in advance, talking about the kind of effect we want to create in rehearsal or listening and…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to martyn burt's discussion 'Leading worship with a Double Neck'
"As far as I recall, the Variax one sounded okay but I'm basing that on a limited amount of playing some time ago. It probably doesn't match up to a (good quality and in tune) 12 string guitar but might do the job in the context of backing…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to martyn burt's discussion 'Leading worship with a Double Neck'
"I think that if I wanted to switch between, say, a 6 and 12 string guitar mid-song, I'd rather go for the Variax approach, with modelling to simulate the sound. Otherwise you've got 18 strings to tune up and keep in tune and you are toting…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Robert MacFarland's discussion 'Not a dummer/what to do?'
"That idea of orchestrating a new song from scratch is brilliant. Taste and see that subtle can be good on the kit!"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Robert MacFarland's discussion 'Not a dummer/what to do?'
"I agree with Stevo. Trying to steer from the backseat can be a pretty hazardous approach. Perhaps just pray for a change (without letting it become an obsession in your prayer life); ask that the drummer can get a gentle steer from one of the team…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Ryan Green's discussion 'Essential Pedals' in the group Bass Guitarists
"Remind him, gently, to get more control in his fingers. A compressor won't magically fix the peaks unless you have it rolled up so high that you sound more like a keyboard bass player with no velocity sensitivity. Thinks to practise are playing…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Ryan Green's discussion 'Essential Pedals' in the group Bass Guitarists
"I definitely wouldn't label a compressor essential although, to be fair, I pretty much always have some degree of compression mixed in with my Bass Pod patches. In most cases though it is pretty subtle; more of a nuance than having a noticeable…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Ryan Green's discussion 'Essential Pedals' in the group Bass Guitarists
"If you want to play, consider some kind of multi-fx unit. I used to use a Zoom pedal and then, when I eventually stomped on it so much the contacts wore (after several years, countless rehearsals and numerous gigs - not a waste of money) upgraded to…"

Bassists

Bass is beautiful... but it would be better to join the bass guitarists group even if your playing is about much more than wielding an oversized guitar!

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Ryan Green's discussion 'Bass Player as Worship Leader' in the group Bass Guitarists
"What about a different bassline? I find there is normally something which can fit both me and the song. On the other hand, it does add variety if you don't have every instrument and every voice being used all the time on every song. Sometimes I…"

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Ryan Green's discussion 'Bass Player as Worship Leader' in the group Bass Guitarists
"Interesting. I definitely find it easier to sing backing vocals. However, I am defining that as opening my mouth and just letting whatever wants to come out into the room. Trying to sing a specific part is definitely more challenging."

Wulf Forrester-Barker replied to Ryan Green's discussion 'Bass Player as Worship Leader' in the group Bass Guitarists
"I'll have to see if I can get me on video sometime. It is a bit hard to say what I do because, somewhere in the demands of listening to God, listening to the music, singing, leading the congregation and directing the band, a lot gets delegated…"
