I had a Yamaha John Patitucci model it was pretty cool. No radius, like a classical guitar. Strange and wide...and pretty cool. My other basses at the time were a Padulla 5-string fretless (high C) and a Danelectro Longhorn. I could switch between them effortlessly. I also had a 10-string Stick, an original Ironwood Classic tuning. I now play a 12-string Dual Bass Reciprocal Stick. 12 Strings! SnobbySnobbySnobby. I still have the Longhorn. It hurts my fingers pretty quickly 'cause I ain't got no calluses from playing Stick all the time...

Chef and Musician. Been there and done that. Had a gig the next night and used oxycodone and Becks Dark.

I like Tony Levin's super-compressed sound on Stick. Like on Discipline. Other than that I tend to use a studio-type insert on my PODX3 to "even-out" the many strings of my Stick. There are compressors that deal with different frequencies to allow a more even attack, but I have neither the $$$ nor the proclivities to venture down that avenue.

I have to agree w/ NancyJohnson the stuff that floats my boat is jangly guitar preferably played/sung by wimmen.

OK I'll be 65 in a few days. Do you chaps have I guess you would call it, "University Radio Stations"? We call it "college radio". Small radio stations dj'd by students. That's where I hear stuff that's...refreshing. I only listen in the car. Otherwise I can't sit still.

I mean...using phaser these days is suprisingly retro. If. You. Were. To.

I'm 100% satisfied with my Chapman Stick. Emmett did a beautiful job, and I am proud to own one he had his hands on. Doesn't mean I wouldn't like to get my hands on a Railboard...

I used to fashion kicky bracelets and necklaces from the old string sets for my more adventurous paramours.

Phaser. Not used enough these days. Suprisingly retro.

Oh yeah that pop music in the '80's. What was that dude doing in that group "Japan"?

If anyone wonders why I play Stick... Nick is great...

I'm not allowed in most of the places they take me back to.

Thought you meant Jimi's version...

OP: No. And Pet Sounds is WAY better than Sgt. Pepper.

Sony MDR-7506 Pro Studio Monitors. I use them for playing Chapman Stick (full-range instrument) and listenin' to music & vids.

That could be adapted to the Chapman Stick. Not by me, though...

I played "Bassically" with a Morely Wah and a girl came up after and said wasn't that a bit "expanding"? I asked what she meant by that and she said she felt like she "had to go to the bathroom". Don't know if she was dissing me but I took it as a compliment.

"Sound like" as opposed to "copy", Chris Squire, Stanley Clarke, John Wetton. Tried to copy a lot of guys.

When this came out we didn't have a slow-down mode. No 16 2/3 rpm on my turntable. And it would have been an octave lower to boot. Just listened to this earlier. coolcoolcool

Reaching for the handle, bacon in my hand.
