  1. I watched it in German once, they really didn’t capture all the jokes
  2. I did not know you were putting those in.
  3. Also good tone on the gold top toy bass there
  4. Not any more sadly. Don’t dabble with this wood. Cheap for a reason
  5. See my build thread - I had the worst time with that stuff. It drinks grain filler like I drink expresso I just painted it on, it drank it. I put some more on …
  6. Hell has a special place for those who meddle with toy basses. Specially trained imps will use your butt for pitchfork target practice and that’s if you’re get off lightly
  7. Waiting with baited breath 🤞
  8. Electric scooters on the road, no regard for, and taking no responsibility for their own safety
  9. Let us know how it goes @Blondy
  10. : popcorn 🍿
  11. it’s not just for Christmas
  12. I’d start with a duo and work up to that
  13. Pictures please, when you can @peteb
  14. Well, firstly welcome and you’re in the right place to get polite and well-reasoned advice with this 👍 if it were me, all over again, I’d first get a teacher to make sure I hadn’t picked up bad habits from self-tuition we have lots of US members here btw @Bluewine @jd56hawk @dclaassen amongst others, you aren’t the only one
  15. We will be rooting for you @Blondy you only have to be fairly close, okay?
  16. JMB is JoinMyBand
  17. Nope you’re a spring chicken around here. open mic nights and jam sessions is my advice. I’ve met a superb singer who encourages me to try songs on the fly, and a reliable guitard. Look on Facebook for local events example here: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1FHRWQeTn7/?mibextid=wwXIfr I guarantee you will be one of very few bass players there One guy who attends my local events is a professional bass luthier and an amazing source of good advice

    good to be here

    We welcome refugees from talkbass
  19. What about a tc electronics bh250?
  20. I nominate @Lozz196 as chief tester
  21. I was given one of those and I was stretchered out. Unbeknownst to me I had a very low heart rate and a beta blocker put me into “not sure how you’re still alive” territory
  22. Is anyone from here going to that service ? they might be able to give you constructive criticism or more likely praise
  23. It’s a memorial service I think, so she probably wants to do the best she can at this point. no one will notice small mistakes, honestly. I totally train wrecked with a super loud guitarist, and a drummer that I was too close to hear. I lost my confidence totally. The thing that got me back on the horse was realising that most audiences don’t care about small mistakes and that their standards were so low that “fairly close” was definitely good enough If you’re really stuck, stop playing, hum along in your head and start playing again when you find your place again, like at a chorus :thumbsup i suggest you get someone to record you and you’ll probably find you did better than you thought 👍
