I PM'd him here on TB about some pedals and
we corresponded a bit back and forth, then
he gave me his telephone #. I called him
and we talked for quite a while.
Very cool cat and I don't know too many pros
that would do that for just a "hobby player."
Call him what you will or judge him by his name,
all I know is, he's a very cool, down to earth guy
and a valued member of this forum.

| | | | The name (and name only) makes me think unoriginal, and wanna be jaco. I have seen some videos and that is not how you play, just talking about the name here. How would a guitarist be received if he changed his name to Hendricks III-X??? no troll, no hate, just my initial thoughts when I see the name |

S | It hits me, after reading the interview, that Jauqo-IIIX was passing along Ornette's gift (time and attention) to him!
Very cool. Oftentimes, the best way to repay a gift is to pass it along, IMO. |

It's funny how someone would hate a player because of a name. And especially after not having even heard the musician play.
If a guitarist changed his name to Hendrix IIIX and all you hear is a Hendrix clone, then yes I could see why some may get bent all out of shape. But at the end of the day I could care less about some one trying to be a clone. I have no interest at all in being a clone.
Like I said in the interview, I sound nothing at all like Jaco Pastorius. And for the record I have no issues at all with JP. I think he was a gifted and talented artist. And his contribution to music I greatly appreciate.
Do you hear any JP in any of these tracks?

Plus, if a name gets people to talk about one...that's not all bad either I think.

Fantastic guy and glad that he is doing his own thing and finding success with it. Experimentation allows for new voices to emerge. Keep up the great work Jauqo. |

| | | | Chill bro. not knocking your playing in the least. As stated my post, you do not sound like Jaco. I agree. I think your pick/slap combo technique is innovative. just talking about your name. Call em like I see em. You also asked about it if I recall. |

Completely, totally, open and humble dude.
I thoroughly enjoyed hanging out with him when he was at our Bass Blast.
He passed on so much knowledge in the few hours I was with him. Real knowledge. It's still with me to this day.
I love to be with people who are real and comfortable with themselves.
Not to mention he's a bass monster who left the building in shambles... |
