So, This has happened before, (And I know a couple other people here siad the same!) there I was at a Sam ash (HATE THAT PLACE!!!) playing a 5 string warwick rockbass (yuck) and this girl walked in... and looked at me playing it and said... What is that? Bass have 4 strings... And guitars have 6... so what is that? SO two things crossed my mind... either "Its a Bass-Guitar" or "A mandolin".... I Chose Mandolin and she said "Oh"...
Lol, I just thought that was funny and got a chuckle out of it! |

Was she pretty?

Moral of the story:

Naa at that point i would have told her that i played in (tried to take a guess of cheezy bands she might like) You know JEDI might trick her!
