Dood Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 [quote name='ruztiwarren' post='274565' date='Sep 1 2008, 02:38 PM']And another thing..... Why is it on YouTube, even if it's a ten second second clip of a five year girl "playing" her dad's (or mom's) bass in the living room, someone feels compelled to mention she's not as good as Flea/Claypool (insert name), at which point it's statutory for some other critic to mention the name Wooten. Said name will then spark a strongly worded bitch fight for several pages, culminating in speculation about each others sexuality and mother's profession. This tends to be regardless of whatever level, style, gender or age of the bass player's clip. I'm gonna find a Wooten clip and write I bet Wooten could s**t all over this guy (which is probably true).[/quote] abso-f*ckin-lutely!!!

waynepunkdude Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 [quote name='Dr.Dave' post='274847' date='Sep 1 2008, 07:15 PM']Anything with carpet covering. Fender stock bridges that collapse on you. Well , they collapse on me! Alembics with a pointy bottom so you can't stand them up. Or any other Alembics come to think of it. Jaydees. 2 jam jar lids stuck to a funny shaped body , what's that all about. Strap manufacturers - all of them - for putting a hole in that's too small and a slot that makes a small hole pointless. But the award for the biggest pile of sh*te goes to Schaller - for manufacturing straplocks that don't lock on to a strap and dump my Status on my foot mid gig making me look a right numpty - not to mention the pain. Thankyou Schaller - you utter,utter twats.[/quote] So thats why you sold me that bridge Who is Brian Fox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always have the correct size spanner in my gig bag... not a real spanner though, a thin flat one that came free with a assemble-it-yourself piece of furniture... turned out to be the right size for the schallers so I kept hold of it.

Earbrass Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Thanks for introducing me to the wonderful world of Brian Fox.

cetera Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Off the top of my head.... Behringer…. Say no more… MusicMan Bongo…. Ugly beyond belief Markbass colour scheme…. It’s soooooo wrong! Warwick Katana….. see Bongo Bartolini Pickups…. Bland… 6+ string ‘basses’….. just get a guitar, once you play that high it’s called ‘treble’! Trace Elliot…. Used to like it, then realised it has no richness of ‘tone’ Relic’ed basses….. why?? Just why?!? People who think constantly ‘slapping’ makes them a good bassist…. Bassists who constantly play 'chops'..... just 'lock in' sometimes ferfuksake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassMunkee Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Actually I have used a Behringer DSP2024 and found it to be very good. I think people slag Behringer off "just because". So they are cheap, it doesn't make them bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
