Bass t-shirt

Sign in to disble this ad
My wife is designing a bass t-shirt for me. It's going to have a collage of many of the popular electric basses. She wants some ideas for a catchy one-line saying about bass...

Any ideas? These should be PG-rated please!

"Like most musicians, you're following a bass player."

"Holding down the bottom end since 1950"

Gotta think something related to bass on the front side but on the back side of the t-shirt this should be :

"Mine is BIGGER"
With a small font below it : "I mean the instrument I play"

Yeah there are a lot of sayings that involve sexual innuendo - I'm not looking for those.

Looking for a different direction.

Bass - the glue that holds it all together.

Use the Elmer's glue bottle and color scheme.

You don't even need words, but if you really wanted, I'd go with a super simple phrase like "get low" or something.

Like all bass players, I love slapping away at a warm round bottom end.
