    30-32 inches scale bass ?

    I have small hands. But that doesn't make me get a 30-32" scale bass. Man up and stick to the ol' 34" axes!!! It's all about technique and dedication, not who has the biggest hands. -Byron

    Has a tattoo ever hindered your search for a job or affect a current one?

    Can someone help me understand why employers focus on your appearance other than your skill, education, and character? Anyone who judges another human being because of a tattoo should, without a doubt, get the dog sh!t smacked out of them...

    Should I talk to the band about this?

    Never play a gig that you feel uncomfortable. You will lose focus on your epic bass playing, and none us axe wielders would like to hear about. I personally suggest to let the band know how you feel. Your band mates are considered your family (or at least that's how I see it)
