They've been known to hang a slab-focussed doubler by a Rotosound D string for calling a DB an upright.

I finally dared to venture into the [DB] side of things, having never set foot in there in the past, and guess what I saw...

One of the coolest guys on TB is over there all the time, Uncle Toad. He's also the guy that sets up all my basses and the man knows his stuff too. He's a cool cat.

In all seriousness(this is the ONE time today, I promise)there is a TON of monumentally useful, entertaining & profound knowledge *over there*, but do be aware they/wespeak a slightly different dialect of the same language; LBYL.

There is a bunch of useful info over there. I'm pretty much on that side reading everyday, and I have learned a whole bunch from it. But I never feel useful enough to post something.

+1

I read a post someone made seeking information on how to better apply modes. Some replies were on my level. Some, I read and learned. Others were on a whole other level and I just drooled on my keyboard.


I think the nature of their instrument brings a higher percentage of people more dedicated to their craft. The DB side is serious internet. The BG side wants to validate bacon as a supreme food source.
