bassboy115 Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 (edited) I loaded up basschat in my lunch break the other day and my guitarist in my band turned around and said ' OMG basschat your always on that whats the point in it...Its well stupid you go online and talk about bass...sad... i wouldnt waste my time talking about guitar' .....My reply was that's why your a guitarist! Just thought id share my experience with you and see if any of you lot have had similar experiences? Alex Edited October 6, 2007 by bassboy115 Quote

warwickhunt Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 Sorry but you lot aren't real people. My missus claims you're my imaginary friends! Quote
Davemarks Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 ummm... it's called networking. A forum like this allows us to share so much info, spread the word on gigs or products that are worth checking out and get advice from others who are more experienced in a particular discipline... It's an online community... Quote

There's so many ways that we're helping each other by taking part in these forums. Mabye your guitarist would realise how important a knowledgeable (sp??) bass player is if he took the time to check out this website or it's guitar counterparts. Quote
ARGH Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 [quote name='Rich' post='70282' date='Oct 6 2007, 12:48 PM']Alex, your guitarist is an utter twat.[/quote] Welllllll.....Those that post dont,those that dont post do! (I agree though,where else can I ask a question about string guages,or bridge parts,or where to obtain and purchase score 24/7....all year round?...Guitarplayers are notorius ignorant knobheads) Quote

A real guitarist (like mine, boy am I lucky) can't wait for me to take my new toys 'round to his place so he can have a play himself..... Then he gives 'em back and says something like, "come then, gimme what you got!" Dont you just love it! smug! Quote

Just as I post some witty remark to a non-imaginary/imaginary friend's dilemma (cos that's what we do best), I begin to imagine the emoticons that will duly follow from Mrs T Quote
Musky Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 I'm quite jealous of your guitarist, Alex. It must be great being stuck in a rut, secure in the knowledge that all your gear is in fact the best tool for the job, and there are no other options or ways of doing things. Or perhaps he's happy to rely on one persons opinion in a magazine, even though advertising pressures often taint the reviews? Quote

Unless of course it's me thats taking part, but then, again if I didn't, this poor little fella would be redundant wouldn't he? > [quote name='warwickhunt' post='70331' date='Oct 6 2007, 03:29 PM']Just as I post some witty remark to a non-imaginary/imaginary friend's dilemma (cos that's what we do best), I begin to imagine the emoticons that will duly follow from Mrs T [/quote] So that's all I am to you?

Tbh i dont think he fully knows what it is?! All funny replies tho! Quote
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 Well I suppose sharing experiences, giving and getting advice/opinions and having a laugh with other like minded individuals is a bit pointless isn't it? Unfortunately we can't all be po-faced know it all guitarists. . Quote

I probably wouldn't have upgraded from my Ashdown MAG stack to my new rig of Little Mark II & Schroeder 1212L if it wasn't for lots of info right here that people have shared. After doing my own research I decided this was probably the best solution for me, but I probably wouldn't have even known about this gear if it wasn't for Bass Chat. Quote
