No wait, that doesn't sound nearly serious enough. I, I, I... oh crud, I play bass:A mint, '74 4001FL (fretless) Jetglo (that's black kids) Ric. One rig only. I understand the obbsession with owning mutiple guitars but I have more then I'll personally ever need with this one beuty, but I digress (and the truth is I own other guitars but they all collect dust). Okay, back to how I found TalkBass. At some point in time, not that long ago, I crawled out of the dark ages and got connected on line. This was difficult for me... keyboards are NOT strings. Anyway, I surfed (okay, for porn at first, there I admitted it) but then I got serious about what I was surfing for. This, logically, lead me to TalkBass. Surf and you shall find, or so sayeth someone who knows much more then I do. Well, that's it. This Ric-oholic is outta here! "The Bass brings it home." Rob out. SparkleDrive435 06-24-2006, 04:49 PM My husband is a bassist - and he's slowly but surely molding me into one as well - which is who referred me to this site. valmonteiro 06-26-2006, 07:36 PM Hi, I'm a brazilian girl.

I very much look forward to hearing from you all... davemeltz 07-01-2006, 08:02 AM I found this through Google fenderdog 07-02-2006, 04:24 AM I've been trying to post but I keep gettin' an error message fenderdog 07-02-2006, 04:24 AM I guess I don't know how this thing works. fenderdog 07-02-2006, 04:26 AM I put a Lindy Fralin pup in my 1978 Ibanez "lawsuit" era P-bass and it sounded great...then I A-B boxed it with one of my two other stock Lawsuit Ibanez P-basses and found...no difference at all! in output or tone...so I A-B'd the re-pickup'd '78 Ibanez with my new Lakland Skyline Bob Glaub with stock Lindy Fralin....identical tone and output (but nicer finish on the Lakland)...my curiosity aroused, I A-B'd the new Lakland with Fralin with an un-modified stock 1975 Ibanez "lawsuit" P-bass. Could NOT tell any difference in tone or output. The lesson learned here is two-fold...Lindy Fralins sound great...and ' 70's Ibanez copys sound EQUALLY great...I've had two genuine Fenders that paled in comparison, and are now gone. I have 5 "lawsuit" era Ibanez's and I won't waste money on new pickups again, the stock ones are the real deal. My $2000 Sadowsky MV-4 with pre-amp bypassed sounds IDENTICAL to my 1976 Ibanez Jazz bass copy! I A-B them with my eyes closed and cannot tell which is which. I'm $120 lighter in the wallet for the Fralin P-Bass Pup but I'm wiser to the quality of 70's Ibanez...buy up as many of them you can find! Peace bonedaddy 07-03-2006, 01:25 PM I was looking around on Harmony Central. My older son (13) wants to learn bass...I can't read music, and he can, as he already plays trombone and flute. While I was looking for some sites with basic bass lessons in regular bass clef, I saw the link to your site, and here I am. I play bass in two blues bands, as well as act as a back-up band for a few local (Syracuse NY) area blues artists who don't have their own regular band. Play about three to ten times a month, variable. Site looks interesting, I expect to visit when I can, but have little of no time to get e-mails from other people, as I work fuull-time, am in a bachelor's college program, play out a bit, and take care of my kids.
