ezbass Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 The quiz results say this- You Scored as Victor Wooten Victor Wooten 67% Pete Wentz 25% Jaco Pastorius 25% Micheal "Flea" Balzary 25% John Myung 17% But I'd say a mix of Roscoe Beck, Chuck Rainey, Pino and Rocco Prestia, but without the burgeoning talent of those 4 masters.

Dr.Dave Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I'm mostly Jaco according to the quiz. Best be off , get coked up and call a bouncer a soft c**t then. Which would be as close to being like Jaco as I'll ever get!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Apparently I am 50% Victor Wooten, 25% John Myung, 17% Flea, 8% Pete Wentz (oh puh-LEEze) and 8% Jaco. Rrrrright. Quite how I work out to be 108% of anything is unclear at this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I'm Victor Wooten. Oh, how I laughed. Apparently this quiz was created by someone with cloth ears and a VERY limited knowledge of non-flashy bass players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tusknia Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) I got Pete Wentz on the quiz but I'd say Christopher Wolstenholme - turn the fuzz up and just hammer the at same notes again and again!

paul h Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 You saying I'm fat? If I can be 216% then I can be anything I want. But I would have been happy with 1% Larry Graham. P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike257 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) I'm allegefly more Wooten than anything else. If I'd picked one off that list I'm least like, it'd be him. Where's Tim Commerford when you need him. I'd settle for that to be honest Edited October 29, 2008 by mike257 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faithless Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Hello, I'm Victor Wooten, errr, well, actually lacking 56% of [i]him[/i], but, hey, relax, I'm playing only for two years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 John Myung...........one of the most boring, uninteresting bassists out there. All because of the 6 string question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 It said I was Duck Dunn & Willie Dixon in equal measure. Actually it said the person that put the quiz together is an idiot - not in so many words, but the clues were there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markytbass Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I don't know who I sound like, It's been so long since I used my combo I've forgotten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tait Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 this quiz sums me up well - 58% wooten - after all, i am arguably the best bass player alive 42% flea - hes one of my favourite bass players, and indeed a great influence on me 25% pete wentze - i used to play a precision with a pick 8% jaco - as i said, im arguably the best bassist ever, but the reason im so little jaco is cos i dont play fretless, jazz basses or "fusion jazz" or whatever it is jaco is supposed to have played. 0% john myung - of course i dont play like him, never even heard of him. nah, in all seriousness, it depends who im playing with. when in a band id say im most like ben osmundson or maybe bruce foxton cos i try to follow the roots and try to put in something a bit more fun, too.

JoeS Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 58% Victor Wooten, meaning the remaining 91% is a combination of the other four. I'm also equal parts John Myung and Pete Wentz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouMa Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I always get miller,or haslip but i usually get people non bass players telling me i sound like the man doing chaka khan or luther vandross bass lines. I think i am getting close to giving miller a run for his money but dont have the motivation,wish i could find a bloke like jaykay and square pushers bastard son who want me to play,but in suffolk it would be a miracle.
