StickyDBRmf

I learned the trombone in highschool because I read bass clef and the band director needed a 'bone player. Amazing noises you can come up with! And LOUD.

It's all I use on any instrument. When I got my first Stick I found out they are the brand Emmett Chapman settled on. And he is picky.

Not to blow my own horn (metaphorically) but as a bassist who happens to play Stick, I prefer my own approach, as well as other bassists who play Stick, rather than Stickists that have come from the guitar. Stickists that have come from other instruments are ok. Drummers tend to be Monsters...

I love it, but, learn the neck, proper lessons, no stickers. Jeezuz Weezuz. 13 yrs. old they can count can't they...

Nice hat.

Ah, yes. I haven't heard THIS in a long time.

Bamboozled By Love - F.Z.

Um. Reworked Fender fretless. Like, the body was original. Mighty Mite Ebony fretless fingerboard, DiMarzio pu's, brass bridge, nut, pickgaurd, D'Addario roundwounds nickle 100-45, Roland pre-amp into Peavey 400 Poweramp into 2 Cerwin Vega 2-12's. beach rig did everything from PiL to Human Sexual Response to Brand X to Material. Also a Ibanez 8-string (made fretless w/ a claw hammer). Original music, the Sound of the World Ending. Punk?

Deep Tan. Great note choices. Is it time? Is it not time for music to rebel? The Pop Tunes (?) Auto - Toons Times Is Over? Is it not time for The PUNKS to take over/ Take Back the Music? IS IT NOT TIME FOR THE OLD GEEZERS TO STRAP ON THEIR OLD STRING INSTRUMENNTS? (and have the greatful children roadie?)

Try it. You gotta work the faders....

///We are into The Jokes./// I'm happy some of you Blokes found Finger-Ease. My gf makes sure I have a supply from Amazon. I can get it @ my local M&P Shop but believe it, Guitar Center tries (tries) to charge me 2$ more than my M&P. $5 vs. $7 US. SERIOUS? I mean, it's WD40, right?

(Scofield is a monster) My personal preferences are (is) fusion before fusion was called fusion... And the The Canterbury Scene (British). Examples: Gong, National Health, Hatfield & The North,... The quirkier stuff, but with great playing. And for me, again, it was guys that were recording that my band-mates would say, "Hey, this sounds like you."... ...Percy Jones & Jah Wobble.

I learned this in a rehab where there were 32 people listening to 32 things at 32 different times.

BTW: The magic number is always three. Two beats you can focus on one. More than three the beats don't sync. Three is like cosmic soup.

I'm listening to everything on this page on top of each other. Tell me I'm the first to do this.

Did this problem just start? Old strings can do weird things. You get a nick or a dent or a flat spot and it's not going to ring true.

The Miles Davis autobiography: John Coltrane to Miles, "I don't know how to end a solo." Miles, "Take the horn out of your mouth."

So you're only doing one song?

I use Tone Finger-ease. It's made in West Virginia so I don't know if it's available across the pond. It's a spray. They say they've been in bizniz for over 35yrs so that's how long I've been using. I think it makes the strings last longer, too. Used on finished and unfinished necks of everything from maple, rosewood, ebony, and now bamboo (Stick). No build-up, no ill effects.

M.M. has more wear marks on his headstock than the bass body.

Moving Air. I always refer to it like that when I talk to people about when I can practice w/out those darn headphones. My old rig was two Cerwin Vega 2x12s. THAT moved air (but not like an 8x10).

Spoonerism?

It's 96. And I really have to give a shout-out for Gil Scott-Heron. The Godfather of Rap.

Good Times! I love this song - forgive me if I mentioned it before in the last 22 pgs but I can play the guitar parts too, on the Stick! CoolCoolCool...
