All music that exists as a reaction to a culture is significant

If a bass is too heavy, try the Jah Wobble on Old Grey Whistle Test style stool?

That jaco shreds spoof on YouTube is frightfully close to some of his output. I am all for ambidigit virtuosity I am not so much into folk looking down with their 8 or 10 string burr walnut and Pau Ferro monstrosities going through boutique costabomb amps and implying there is something better than playing one string at a time in first and second position on a beat up Squier Prescision that is not even <gasp> active! Punk is a style, it's minimalism is part of the aesthetic... I can play jazz noodle like every other Percy Jones wannabe but frankly? It's not my cup-a. Been there, tried that, decided it's not fun. Stripped back. No one has an issue with Dee Dee Ramone and he was terrible in the early days... a few unknown gigs everyone forgets about a chance to practice not in the limelight and he's up to speed for a career. Sid was in the full glare as a n00b from the onset. Sid wanted fame. Poor kid got it.

Just had a photo shoot.

I like the idea of a 2 string bass guitar. Krappy Guitars always make me giggle... Or maybe a 2 string (4 total) octave unison 2 string. Or a two string double neck. One string per neck. A fat one and a fatter one? ps I don't always dress as a leather bondagepony, sometimes I get home, kick off my hooves and get into some serious slouch wear...

[quote name='Beer of the Bass' timestamp='1448927409' post='2919380'] Hello! I wonder if you might have some mutual friends with my wife, as she has some friends with somewhat related interests and I know it's not a huge scene in Scotland. [/quote] Possibly... If on fetlife, look me up... Name's Bownose there, it's pretty much the same everywhere. Or PM... I'm a pretty normal human pony -- apart from being a bass player that is... That last bit I don't tell me mam about...

just a quick hello I am a punk bassist and I dress up as a human pony in a three piece forming in San Francisco. S&M fetish theme. Currently live in Scotland, but moving full time in 2016 Amps: Marshall Valvestate 8100h & 4x12 cab Fender deluxe reverb circa 1978 I play bass guitar I play both strings, the fat ones unsure what the other two are for, that's awful close to guitar area...
