riff raff

[quote name='paul h' post='736589' date='Feb 5 2010, 07:44 PM']I used to play a parts bass and I gave it some serious abuse. At the end of one gig I just dropped it on the stage and walked off....very rock n roll. Bugger stayed in tune too.[/quote] thats the 'ammer.i love doing that.

if an instrument works properly and is fit for use,i have absolutely no interest or opinion on its aesthetic condition. and to suggest that not anally cleaning and polishing a piece of wood, somehow means that as a person you are somehow deficient is bollocks. :wacko:

thats the most ridiculous thing to say.if i work hard(i do) and earn the money to buy the gear i want(i do) i can do whatever i like with it.and treat it however i like. they're only tools.beat the sh*t out of them i say.

[quote name='silddx' post='735194' date='Feb 4 2010, 04:12 PM']It's an interesting point, in fact I was just having a quick ciggie thinking about exactly that before I read your post. I sort of came to the conclusion that my choice of rolling tobacco and papers is much more important to me than my choice of bass and amplification. I personally think Jaco's sound was sh*t, and most of Geddy's sound was too, until fairly recently and on Signals. I love most of Chris Squire's sounds, along with Vivian Weathers', Scott Thunes', Aston Barrett's, Chi Dai Cheng's .. I can approximate all of them on the POD and I very much doubt you would know the difference unless you A/Bed them soloed. I have absolutely no tonal identity.[/quote] i think that you are my hero.

parts donor + firewood.
