  1. " I built my own bass!" And when he said he spent his first check on "a couple of amps and a fuzz box" my gf just laughed...
  2. We are binge-watching. Aw c'mon the songs sound like Fleetwood Mac. Like all the Stevie/Lindsey prattle all at the same time in one song. Catchy.
  3. Alas. No one gets my jokes.
  4. The poor lass on keys didn't get enough camera time. My opinion.
  5. Wow. I've never seen a Fender Bass with the Invisible finish.
  6. She's great! I love the enthusiasm. It's nice to have parents with a studio and instruments laying around. My Dad sang, but he picked up a Roberts reel-to reel (with Sound-On-Sound!) that he recorded his choral groups with, and I had that to screw around with. When I asked for a guitar, I got one. BUT YOU ARE GOING TO TAKE LESSONS. "OK." When I decided I wanted to play bass (heehee), we traded in the guitar, and I got a bass. BUT YOU ARE GOING TO TAKE LESSONS. I have my parents to thank for a lifetime of enjoyment.
  7. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever? Whatever. Fwap. Bip. Bip bleh. Blahp. Fwieep...
  8. I would not rent that space without me being there the entire time. Too much Nice Stuff and Nice Carpet and Nice Furniture and.. No. Just No.
  9. That's me with my electronics knowledge. Boom!
  10. I'll make some up for anyone who needs one. Obvious Knots Ketchum Snakes Bewildered Antlers
  11. Oddly enough I just pulled my fretless Stick out of the storage unit. Will attempt (again) making sense out of, in hindsight, a senseless act. (the de-fretting that is) Have fun with your new bass!
  12. You guys like it? I bought it for the battery function. Chorus is cool but@ 5 watts...Anyone want one? No idea what it would cost to toss it over the pond. Perfect condition, mebe I should wait...until "collectors" get crazy w/ offers.
  13. The back of the Stick is where you really see it! (I knew you were going to say, "Photos!")
  14. Highway Star - OK back to Deep Purple. But that Star Treckkin' thing was great.
  15. My Stick is bamboo. Glued together with a lot of patience I would imagine. And little knots here and there. It's...lumps of grass.
  16. C'mon mates. Show some love. It's been "reliced" for you.
  17. There's too many pages (and controversy) to peruse so I'm gonna say when a manufacturer says it's a "fast neck", the bass is promiscuous?
  18. Try being a Stick player. I can tune twelve strings, both sides in tune with each other, and then the guitarist plays a chord. I have a ten-string Ironwood Stick that had the frets removed. Mistake #1: Unwound strings "tapped" are really difficult to balance with the wound, "bass" tapped notes. Mistake #2: the luthier put fret lines in it. (see previous post)
  19. Listening to Stick players. Mostly boring Stick players. I really gotta get some music out.
  20. Cool thing you can do on a fretless: hit a harmonic, fret it, then pull it up, or down. Instant Percy Jones. Lines throw me off. If I'm looking. I don't know why. I play by ear. Also: You can actually be in tune with the guitarist.
