Hello everyone!! Please check out my new website, www.TheBassHang.com. I would love some feedback. I just put it up about two weeks ago and it is constantly going through design changes. Any and all comments are welcome!!!

Pretty cool so far! Re the calendar on the right side, I know it's one of the normal elements of Wordpress and similar blog pages, but it's worth asking yourself what it's for, and whether it's useful. The slideshow on top is a little clunky and lo-fi, it could use some tightening-up. Also it's redundant to have the slideshow and then the pages listed with thumbnail pics on the same page. I would suggest nixing the "Mission Statement" page, putting the mission statement underneath the slideshow on the front page, and putting the "table of contents" one more step inside; like maybe clicking on the slideshow takes you to a table of contents page, and you could have a text link for that too: "Click to see all of our articles".

Overall pretty good though!

Thank Bongo!! Awesome suggestions!! I got rid of the calendar, and am working on the navigation...constantly changing stuff!!
Appreciate you checking it out and taking time out to make suggestions!!

Great review on the sq jag!

caesarbass · #6 11-27-2010, 12:38 PM

Thanks Chow!! That bass is really awesome!!! Seems to me that even if you get one that isn't set up very well, especially at a music store, they are made really well and easy to get set up to your particular playing style and preference.

Thanks JZ!!
The LEJ reviews were a little frantic due to the time constraints...receiving the basses, unpacking them, shooting/editing/rendering video, then getting them to NAMM!! It was wild!! I'm glad they came out OK!!!! I agree on the Squier basses!! I use the little Vintage Mod Jaguar on gigs and it's great!!
You have an AWESOME collection of basses!! Love the colors!!
Thanks again!!!

Hey guys!! I was lucky enough to interview Jai Swann via Skype a few weeks ago and finally finished editing the video!! I just posted it on TheBassHang.com. Jai did great...I'm a little "talkie" and off...possibly due to the lag/delay of Skype...or more than likely...it's just ME!!!! Haha!!
Hope it's up to your standards Jai!!!

Nice site. One thing that I did notice is that when the nav menu spills down it gets hidden behind the flash video.

Muzoid · #20 02-13-2011, 11:13 AM

Added to my favorites.....looks great at first glance.

I look forward to going through it later....thanks.
