Just got done with a half-hour of "hunting down the bad wire in the studio". I was ready to plug-n-play now I'm stressed & my back hurts. The Muse has left the building. Time for Basschat to "Make Me Smile..."

Rush Never Sleeps - Two Bands from Canada

All except the famous and rich part. And George Martin wasn't in the studio. But, yeah, isn't that how it usually goes for musicians doing original material? I'm not much for the Beatles, their songwriting didn't influence me, and just to give you a heads-up that I'm not a damn Yankee that isn't into the British Invasion. I really, really cannot stand Elvis Presley, either. At least I can listen to the Beatles without screaming "Turn that off!'

Sorry no way to delete.

All I want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth - Spike Jones

Adele can sing. No silly stuff doing silly stuff. I don't care what she puts out the music is real.

Good Times. And... Inna Gadda Da Vidda.

A chair makes more music than most of the "bassists".

Yeah when I write something it just comes. No work involved. I think it's beautiful but a million other people don't. There is no accounting for taste and I find most of the Beatles catalog boring. I appreciate what they did in the studio but George Martin should have been credited with music as much as producer. I have worked in bands where someone relentlessly drums a song until everyone acquiesces and a "song" emerges. The Beatles had that..."privilege". So what? How many replies have said 7 hours of Get Back was boring? "Get" Off my "Back".

I think it depends on what bass guitar strings you use. And I am not trying to be a smarty pants.

I could tell you which one I liked better in about 30 seconds and that is all that really matters. To me.

59 Shades of Beige? Haha.

All I want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth - Spike Jones

I can't believe I watched as much of that as I just did.

What they did in the studio changed recording history. Their songwriting? C'mon it's been hyped up way too much. They hit one or two every album and the rest is "I can make a tuber art". (sic, John)

My Stick falls down occasionally. It's bamboo so it usually can't be detected. You "relicers" are an odd bunch. I bum out with dents and such. And really hated that big 70's belt buckle.

I think I would buy a 60's P or J for about 5 hundred. That's all they are worth. Seriously they weren't that good back then and they ain't that good now. Doesn't mean I don't wish I had my old basses back. Just it don't mean too much if it sounds good and plays good.

I guess not! Well, if that's not a curdled pudding I don't know what is.

I have to try this again. You can't say "wombler"?

Shut up you wombler! And get ready for the...

The only Fender Precision Bass I ever owned was a maple neck fretless. And I wore the stinky poo out of it and had to replace the neck and pu's and everything else on it. But my was it a fun unit.

I was out there playing originals in the '80's and our keyboardist had deep pockets so we heard everything out there and I like the catchy stuff but I never got the whole Police thing even though they are catchy stuff...

Glad you posted this for as inquisitive as I am about the era I don't love or respect the beatles. Enjoyed that album "The Beatles" quite much but the rest yawn...

Is there any other than bad jazz guitar?

The owner met Emmett at NAMM in the '70's (if I recall correctly) and kept a relationship. He still hunts them down and gets them to sell in the shop. The one I saw was a 10-string DBR. Not the Grand spacing or I might have thought about it. Mine is a 12 DBR. I blew it several months back a guy was selling a plasma coated chrome Railboard in Baltimore I could have driven there in 3 1/2 hrs. Emmett stopped making them pretty quick. Greg Howard played Emmetts gold one at the memorial service.
