It's a long title, but you can't really post a new thread for every little thing you want to say, or every time you want to ask a question.
All start, and even though my questions are music related, this is off topic, they don't have to be 
First off, i was wondering what kind of finish is on the bass in these videos, or whatever you would call it to get the body to look like that; so i have a general idea of what to say i want when i order my G&L.
at 30-32 seconds oan see it well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GziH8...eature=related
at 2:10-2:17 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhW8dH7txeU
Not to mention these are great songs and you all should check em out anyway 
Also, i was wondering if these is a specific reason why i can hear certain overtones more than others on a specific note. Like on the open G string, i can clearly hear the fifth, but when i play a Bb, i can more clearly hear the third....and as I'm typing this i realized they are the same note, D....

That is all.

Not correcting you, just wondering.
Oh- and to contribute, my 4-yr-old daughter says I have bad breath. I guess that's what I get for teaching her to tell the truth.

That way it's much easier to reach the chips and you don't get your arm covered in cheese/salt dust reaching into the bag, plus it takes up less room in the cupboard. Quote:

|  | Me? Solecistic? That's unpossible! | | Join Date: Nov 2003 Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada eh? | | I recently tried to calculate the radius of my bass neck near the nut. I measured (c=1.625") across the nut and measured (h=0.625") from the back of the neck to a spot in between the nut and first fret. I plugged these numbers into the formula:
r=(c^2+4h^2)/8h
and the result was less than an inch.
