do you know what i love?

[fenderphil]

i love when people mess up when playing a riff and they blame it on their gear.

i used to jam with a guitard that would get to pissed at his guitar whenever he messed up a riff. classic.

[warwick.hoy]

Yup, I think that's what they teach on Guitar Hero.

I always thought that when you mess up you are just supposed to keep going.

[rfclef]

Yeah... I totally agree!... I mean wha;jap po ajlna/pjp'agkienqp

Stupid keyboard.

[Vic Winters]

If you're Ashlee Simpson you blame your band or heartburn.

Dude, you gotta give me time to guess.

[Spoiled Grape]

I do this on a daily occurrence.

[Techmonkey]

hah, if I've had a few (read: over half a bottle of whiskey) and I'm trying to play bass, the 6 string is usually a bad choice...

"...hey, where'd that string come from?"

[ROON]

Hehe, yeah. My best mate sometimes picks up a bass in a music store and tries to play a song. Naturally he sucks because he's never even attempted learning bass, and he sucked at guitar. So whenever he stuffs up he always goes "UGH, this bass SUCKS!!!". I'm left thinking, how would he know what a good bass is, he doesn't even play.

i tried playing a chapman stick at a party once, i had never touched a chapman stick before and needless to say i ****ed up, i blamed it on the monitors despite there not being a monitor because it was at a party, alcohol may have been involved

[peaveyuser]

Nope i don't ever blame equipment, with exception to the two I have built as a joke/experimental.



Pacman bass, three string fretless, oh and the strings are about a half inch off the board, everybody can screw up a riff on this. Miraculously i have played all of Master Of Puppets on it though



my six string bass tuned like a guitar. Scale lenght is the same as a guitar and so is the string spacing, action is fine playability is fine, its just that the string spacing is just so damn tight it's hard for me to maneuver (one of the reasons I started bass when i was younger was because i never liked the feel of a guitar, too tight and I'd be clumsy).

I would have totally said mashed potatoes before I heard your answer. If you’re going to quiz me you have to insert a pause.

Nice use of a Mitch quote there.

*high five*

*edit* Oh wow. I guess I came late.

[kesslari]

I used to shoot archery with a guy who would get really upset at his gear when he shot poorly.
You could invariably buy nice bows for dirt cheap when he shot badly and was "p.o.'d at the bow".
Then you'd shoot well with it and he'd want to buy it back...

[BlackLake]

Great...now my basses are blaming me...thanks alot guys!

Wayda ruin a good thing.

LOL!

[Asa Samuel]

Yep, guitard blames his action over anything, when its so low that the strings are almost lying on the frets and the only reason is doesn't buzz like hell is the ammount of distortion he uses.
