    Ibanez or Warwick?

    I would take the Rockbass. Warwick necks play great, I have been playing one for a long time without problems. (4 string though) The Rockbass quality issues were from pre 2006, the new 2010 models are amazing and sound great. You could order both and send the one you don't like back for the 45...

    Rip-off promoters

    snap a few pics with a camera so you have proof that there were 50 people. And like other people say, you can always beat him up. FSU bands would have his skull cracked before he could finish the sentence.

    Ebay Bass - Legal Issue???

    If the guy isnt selling it as a real Yamaha then there cant be much of a problem, just look how many companies use Fender body's, copy those and then put their own name on it. Those are legal, because they don't claim to be real Fenders. I would personally never buy anything from China...

    Teaching people who were ahead of me a year ago

    Also consider that they might not want to become musicians. I know plenty of people who just learn how internet tablature works and play along with their favorite songs. They are good that that but if I asked them to play something over a bass line they wouldn't know where to start and that is...

    Whats your favorite music documentary?

    Metal: A Headbanger's Journey is one of my favorites. Anvil was also really nice. How music works from the BBC is also very interesting. The special from Opeth's DVD Lamentations was also interesting.

    Which beginner kit to start off with?

    Well, one is a J and the other is a P (pick up style, Silvertone has jazz pick ups)... I started off with a P but quickly moved to a J because I thought they sounded better and gave some more options for tone. (selecting pick up and all that). So if I had to make that choice I would go for the...

    Playing bass guitar through computer

    I have tried to connect my active bass directly into the macbook's input jack and use Garageband without success. The signal seemed to be too low and cranking it all up just made it sound horrible. Do you need to have some sort of preamp so that you can send a stronger signal to the computer?

    U.P.S. = W.T.F.

    I wouldnt mind being a UPS/FedEx whatever delivery guy. Just googled, starting wages are 40k a year, thats pretty decent for just driving around town and putting packages on ones doorstep.
