Guest TheBigBeefChief Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 [quote name='steve-soar' post='117443' date='Jan 9 2008, 09:46 PM']You don't post anything about what you like as a bass player, it's all really childish and a bit sad. PM me if you want to talk. Humour is an art and you seem to loose it when others confront what you say, rather than carry on the gags. If this is an experiment on your part to get reactions then a bass forum is a bit low key.[/quote] I don't lose it at all. I never feel any ill feeling to anyone following a post, although I know other members do to me. Several members have openly stated that they want nothing to do with me - tetchy or what??!! I have nothing but people confronting me, and I think I stay pretty cheery seeing as I'm often called "childish and a bit sad" (not to mention tosser and plenty of others). But, like the great guy I am, I rise above it. I know you love me really. Hence you want me to PM you. I hate to tell you this, but I'm in a happy relationship right now. Not to worry - one day your prince will come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it your about to make an equally moronic comment regarding respecting women and innuendos on this thread? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10793&st=20"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10793&st=20[/url] After all, fair's fair.[/quote] What point are you trying to get across with the link BBC?

It was one of those models made in Portugal but shipped to England for final assembly. I just couldn't put her down. It just felt so good to give it a good fingering and the sounds that it produced in doing so were amazing. Lots of growl. I experimented with some electronic gizmos inside her too. Made her sound terrific when I really dug in, but it was the buzz that resulted... I found it very annoying. The action under the hand felt so good and my model was also prone to neck dive... although over the years, those properties seemed to vanish. She also seemed to develop bigger mids and bottom end since I first had her. I could never complain about the tops though. As time went on however, I think it developed a bit of an earthing problem... it kept giving off this high pitched whine. I could never get to the bottom of that particular problem. Anyway, it got to the stage where it felt more natural to slap it... not that I ever did of course. I don't think the neck could have taken it. She was obviously getting a lot of use. Even the socket had trouble gripping onto the jack to prevent it falling out. She went a couple of years ago - I had her setup and I found all the knobs on her body a tad excessive. I prefer a single knob - it's less complicated. She's somebody else's problem now although I have heard on the grapevine that she has now been well played and has begun to relic nicely." I have no problem with this, but seeing as I was accused of disrespecting women through sexual inuendo, it seems its one rule for the gang and another for w*nkers like me. Y'see?

But as I said, I made no inuendos. I paid the girl a compliment. The amount of fuss its caused, you'd think I'd inappropriately named a Teddy.
