Silenced Fred Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 what's your set up? ideally, i'd like to get it down to a 4 piece because my one friend who plays guitar is way better at keys, and he's pretty good at guitar, but he smokes on the keys, but he refuses to play it, but i'm trying to get him to split time between the two. right now its me on vocals and guitar (i'm probably going to be doing more acoustic with the band, and leave the electric work to my friend so it has some mix) guitar keys bass drum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shnate McDuanus Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Punk band with three of my friends: two guitars, bass, drums and a vocalist. The vocalist is also the rhythm guitarist. I'm rhythm/lead guitar. Bass guy is backing vocals. Drummer is drummer. Avant-garde/post-metal side project is me and another guy. I'm on guitar and dirty vocals, he's on synths and drum programming and clean vocals. Death/doom project (what I consider my main project) is all me. I'm doing guitar, bass, vocals and drum programming. The industrial rock project is on hold while my other bandmate learns how to write songs.

charlie brown Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 For us, it's (normally) 2 guitars, bass, drums...with myself and the other guitarist doing most of the singing (to varying degrees of competence...(Smile)). But, recently, our drummer informed us, that he can no longer play, due to family problems, and his extended work commitments. So...there is no "band," right at the moment.

Versatile Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Few people nowadays consider the option of keyboard bass and/or pedal bass Led Zep had that in their routine when J P Jones moved to keyboard.... V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I play in a few different bands, so it's hard to keep it all straight. The configurations vary, and each band even might play with slightly different line-ups from gig to gig. Each band has at least one common band member with the other bands. One of my bands has a guy who's an amazing all around musician. He's a great keyboard player, but also does guitar and sometimes even sax. Another band has a great guitar player who also sometimes plays a little keyboard. One band even does acoustic sets. Sometimes it's just the signer/rhythm guitarist and me playing leads/fills. Sometimes we have a percussionist playing congas or small electronic drum kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V I would totally play pedal bass while I played guitar if I could find one that I could afford. The only one that I know of is the Moog Taurus and those are expensive. Do you know of an affordable pedal bass keyboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moog is expensive as it is totally self contained...about £1600 A Roland PK-5 is a pedal board MIDI trigger for about £385...needs a MIDI keyboard or sound module with bass sounds....
