  1. I heartily agree ...
  2. Another urban legend, I'm afraid.
  3. Good evening, Jason, and ... Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share.
  4. It's 'sistren'.
  5. Who knew..?
  6. It takes a whole month just to read the magazine titles..!
  7. Quite often, I don't like the original.
  8. God YES..!!! How could I possibly have forgotten those 2-3..?
  9. Strength: I'm a drummer. Weakness: I'm a drummer.
  10. Good morning, Andy , and ... Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share.
  11. Good morning, Lazarus, and ... Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share.
  12. Ah, but did you start off with the same number of each, eh..?
  13. You've obviously never heard me play.
  14. 'Stiff cost optimization' is the marketing-speak for 'cheapskating'.
  15. And were they right..?
  16. As long as you mop up afterwards.
  17. (... but no kissing, OK..? )
  18. Side_mounting is the answer, and would cost very little, especially if done oneself. Anyone bashing a bass in that fashion can hardly be precious about drilling a hole in the side, I'd have thought. Once done (and it can easily be done neatly...), no more jack problems. The string-breaking will continue, though, until the OP gets fed up with that expense. Kevlar jacks or unobtanium solder connectors are not the way forward.
  19. Creating music using programming is as much art as is anything else. What's so special about stuff being 'art', anyway..?
  20. Maybe they've all been 'floored' by whatever got to the singer, and the word has spread..? ... Good luck with the next gig.
  21. Ooo, I do hate it so when that happens.
  22. Have the jack socket moved to the side of the bass, or restrain your enthusiasm.
  23. Yes indeed (although less of the 'more experienced', please; folks'll be thinking I'm old or summit..!). I'm not much bothered about maps 'n stuff; to me, a passing harmonic will sound good if the intonation and fingering is good, but will sound 'off' if the fingering is duff, whatever the note being played. It becomes rather instinctive, I find, and is integrated into my choice of notes to play all the time, giving an 'individual' feel to the whole thing, whatever the piece being played. Maybe I'm doing it all wrong, though..!
