    Double Bass I need your help!

    Thanks, Reedo! My bass teacher is my friend Jason. He has a bass teacher, Lenny Finkelstein (also teaches at ECU). I was going to take lessons with Lenny but I just can't afford it.

    Double Bass I need your help!

    Alright, I've only played the upright bass 1 year. That was all last year. Before that I've alternated different instruments throughout my middle school and high school careers. I'll be majoring in music at ECU for composition/theory, but the thing is that they require an audition. I have...

    Quick Questions

    I have an Ibanez Soundgear, and I know it has those screws on the back that enables you to remove the neck. I'm pretty sure that they put that feature in to allow you to exchange necks for your guitar. My question is, are all necks the same width (given the number of strings they are made for...

    Double Bass What's up?

    I know that the community here is generally made up of the older-people crowd, however, I'd just like to ask, how many here play on Xbox Live? If you need my gamertag it's Arojekt (of course)... but seriously. --Arojekt.

    Double Bass Transformers Score; Steve Jablonsky

    DOES EVERYONE JUST READ POSTS HERE AND NEVER REPLIES? "Oh, sorry man, I can't help you, but you may want to try..." None of that here? Jeez. It seems that this community isn't as cohesive as it first appeared to be. --Arojekt. Sorry for the rant.

    Double Bass Transformers Score; Steve Jablonsky

    I have just obtained the Transformers OST by Steven Jablonsky. I've been a fan of his work in various other soundtracks. Although, I have yet to see all of the movies he's composed for, I do own many of his soundtracks. He is a commendable composer, like several others such as Mark Isham and...

    Double Bass Recommendations on Thelonius Monk

    I only have two albums by Thelonius, that my grandfather gave me when I was little. Back then, I didn't appreciate music. Back then, I was five. Now I have been exposed to music and it's power, and I've come to love Thelonius Monk. The two that I have, are the respective parts of the series...

    Double Bass Why did Steve Swallow switch?

    It's because music playing is an art. Frankly, most people can give a damn whether people are shunted out of business or made into a rock star. Most people are in the music business for enjoyment, which is what mainstream society fails to understand. Unfortunately, this world is run by money...

    Double Bass A String from Hell

    I HAVE FOUND THE CURE. I asked our school-instrument representative about the problem at work, and he said he'd bring it in and see what the deal was... Apparently the "tool shed" (as we call them) said it actually had to do with the nut. Just essentially what Silversorcerer had implied, the...
