    Playing with musicial illiterates. Does it get any worse than this?

    my friend says "it's the great equalizer"... this way we can all be on the same page. I agree, but someone also said, "where ever you go, there you are". The plane could be equal in theory, but we all bring that internal sense to the session. Guess some people have neither...

    Another reason to refrain from spanking your child

    +1 stupid kids probably do get spanked more. Smart kids don't get caught. plus, If you resort to spanking because you can't communicate it may be because your not very smart ... and your kids may become a chip off the old block.

    Feedback on just one note? Wierd!!! Cool?

    tried muting all strings. tried hitting the octave aswell. im close to my amp, but every other note is clean. feedback dosnt change as i move around. just when i sustain.

    Playing with musicial illiterates. Does it get any worse than this?

    that's why I like finger style so much. I can use my fingers to count beats and measures... just cant make it past 10 tho... lol. really though you don't have to know the circle of 5th to count to 13. **** don't even count, just feel 16 coming your way.

    Feedback on just one note? Wierd!!! Cool?

    Just got a new toy. Ibanez SR305. Sounds ok, Plays nice, but it will feedback if I hold the 9th Fret E on the G. I've never had a bass feedback like that... unless I really tried. Not sure if I like this or not? Is that common? at least its a smooth feedback, not the fry your brain type. What...

    You're the bass player in this video. What changes would you implement?

    I'd loose the burnout camera man, tell ginger he looks like ****, and kick something over (just because we rule!). That would look good... i'd even tell clapton to wave the bitchin stash around a bit... much better

    I know I'm not the only one (GAS)

    Bass Preamps. What's the Big Deal?

    Hey guys. I got one for ya... I need a mid-priced preamp for my 115 combo. Kinda want to keep it simple though. If I can, some compression, good eq, mabey distortion, but light on the effects. I can get my rig to sound pretty good for what it is, just looking for a little more depth... some...
