  1. I hope they don't ruin her
  2. The four of them were lucky to have each other, it was a moment in history, that's all.
  3. 'Ey, wot's a little 'armless fun, now?
  4. I've been using pool noodles for a few years now, no reaction to anything, I cut them and slip them onto edges and can lean my instruments anywhere.
  5. Herbie Hancock's Headhunters wouldn't have jelled without Paul Jackson. Period.
  6. Our dog Shorty comes in my room when I pick up my Stick. I know, I know...
  7. The only memorable music being played in '90 was me with Visual Noise Disturbance.
  8. Basschat and Stickist.com are the only places than are courteous and rational
  9. I've had Uncle Meat stuck in my head for a couple of weeks now. Doesn't matter what I've been listening to or what I've been playing on Stick. When it gets quiet, Uncle Meat...
  10. Nothing wrong with tripe cooked in tomato sauce...Thank you Mr. Fender for many affordable instruments...
  11. Does that help to become one of the "Tool Appreciation Society" minions also? Because I don't get what's all the hubbub, bub...
  12. Nice arrangement well done. Not a fan of the original, and compared to this it sounds over-produced
  13. Well, you hadn't mentioned what was above, just sayin'
  14. Anyone that can groove. Right now...
  15. Go to Stick.com and take a look. Many layers. 47" long. Same price as "hardwoods". I guess he's figured out a way. Like making a cutting board, I guess. The man has imagination.
  16. Yes. By all means. I've even tried finger-picks, thumb-picks, and the Tony Levin Funk Fingers (how has no one mentioned that?) But mostly fingers 'cause in real-life situations the pick flys out of my hand and I'm stuck with my fingers again anyway. Plus you can't pick your nose with a pick in it.
  17. You could hang them. Like in a disco. I'm not kidding I've done it.
  18. I have a genuine question and I'm lazy - I think I might have mentioned it earlier or I might have mentioned it in the plywood discussion. I have a Chapman Stick made of laminated bamboo. Now, this runs the length of the instrument - tip to tail. But the NS Stick can be ordered with a bamboo neck (the NS is a bolt-on). Are there any basses out there made of/incorporating laminated bamboo construction? Emmett Chapman has chose it for it's "rigidity and strength". He also happens to call his wooden Sticks "wooden" or "hardwood". To further complicate the discussion the Stick covers both the bass and guitar range. So what does he know, he only invented an instrument. And then there's the Warr Guitar. (whoops)...
  19. Telephone Captain Beefheart
  20. And for a little while I thought you were getting rid of a bass for a bicycle
  21. Looks quite nice. I'd like to hear it/stand on it.
  22. I'm a bored bass player. scrolled thru 5 pages of drivel, although quite liked "If I change direction too quickly I'm likely to fall over", and "backside damage" for a band name.
  23. Just looked at those Barlow guitars and their tonewoods look like vomit zebras.
  24. I listen to college radio. I need new music I have heard the other stuff. Incidently "Classic Rock" stations here in the States play the Beatles. But as with all the other "Classic Rockers" they play thesamethreesongs over&over&...No deep cuts, HITS. So the station can sell advertisement time. To the population that spends money. On cars.
  25. I had to go back to the initial wording of the question to give my answer and I still don't know why you are asking this. Talk to a teacher either in the same room or on skype or zoom and get these demons sorted out this is not how to go about learning the bass or any other instrument.
