    I thought I had made it clear that I no longer want to be involved in this topic, and fairly rapidly now, in much else on this site i feel like that seal being chucked up out of the surf on David Attenborough’s Life on Earth

    I think it’s a subject that’s been done to death so many times that I don’t bother to do more than acknowledge the latest thread’s existence, but I thank you for your continued commentary on my actions.

    I came back to see if things had improved but I was wrong. I’m unsure why your state of miff with me continues. I didn’t realise I was that important....

    He’s probably a witch ....

    Stop inflating them They pop, is my advice nb that’s the doll, not the 7 year old

    P bass into a zoom b2.1 on the ampeg sim. That’s all I use

    I liked it, (though I only read the righteous stuff about bass and merely glimpsed the weedy string dreck through clenched fingers) - good layout and copy

    I’m a good proof reader and I have IELTS level 9 English - I’ll take a look

    Curse you and your resonant wood fantasies - I’ve been led astray. Again.

    An old one, long-held and utterly immovable vintage, if you will.... 🍿
  12. Geek99
    But Does the tone come from entrenched positions, or is it the metal in the devices that show us the comments?

    I’m unfollowing - btw @Killed_by_Death I don’t fit into your “most” criteria back there and I don’t think this topic should rear it’s head again. Not for the next ten minutes at least
  14. Geek99
    Yes, but what vintage, and what were you wearing when drinking the fitou? Hmm? These factors are extremely important ... 🍿

    Luna Bass

    Geek99 replied to stewblack's topic in Build Diaries

    Yes - a lack of any particular care - so it relics up nicely edit: added clarification

    Too many strings..... 😣but if I was suffering a disease of the mind called “being a guitarist” I’d probably buy one
  19. Geek99
    Yes, true, but that would suggest the OP is a mucky pup and likely to make it dirty and not clean it afterwards. I would hope that we are a clean bunch in this parish

    I think i missed the naphtha thing but pretty much what I said
  21. Geek99
    I used a thin strip of metal to scrape along frets lengthways to get gunk out and fine wire wool on the wood itself, then baby wipes and finally lemon oil

    Ohh I’m flattered that never happens ... it was actually something that @Stuart Clayton said in his fine, fine bass tuition book**, albeit about two octave scales, that turned my head. He made me realise that knowing a box is okay as a crutch but you need to know the fingerboard well enough to see the notes from those boxes all over, even as fragments, rather than shift up to 11 frets just to get to your safe start point for (say) G mixolydian I think subconsciously this is the problem I was seeing with my teachers insistance that I learn boxes for pentatonic scales. It seemed a bit limiting although I’m certain I could not have expressed it in an intelligible way at the time. ** the one with pale blue writing on the cover
  23. Geek99
    I run through it in my head using the construction formula - then i remember major scales. Also better for sleep induction than counting sheep for me it did unlock some stuff
  24. Geek99
    Sympathy for the devil - hope you can guess it
  25. Geek99
    Yes but I’m the kind of person that likes to take things apart and then put them back together; I have to understand why
