I must have missed it in the thread somewhere, but is Tim making basses again? if so how is the payment? do you pay all at once when you order, or is it in increments?

Yeah thanks im really diggin the sound of playin arco on some of these ballads. My primary choice was to play the melody of Dear Old Stockholmme on electric bass and then go to upright for the solo and back to electric for the ending but im thinking about changing my mind and doing a ballad...

Well I can actually improvise really well so as far as just improvising over a standard or something like that is doable but i was mainly just asking for actual song titles to consider. The ones i were considering were songs like Dear Old Stockholme, Summertime, Billie's bounce, and a few...

Ok, Im not sure where this should go, but my school is having a jazz concert and auditions are in roughly a month. The auditions are all for soloists and im not sure what bass solo to play. Im allowed to play anything and i double on electric and upright, although im better at electric. I just...

Just Posted My Bass Solo

Just Minwax Natural Wood Finish... I bought a cheap bass where they had a gk-2b pickup installed. so i took it out and filled the empty screwholes in, and i needed a cheap finish to cover the holes.

Ok ,I'm not sure if this is in the right spot, but i was refinishing a small spot on my bass, and my dog came by and knocked close to a whole bottle of natural finish onto the bass. I'm worried because some of it got into the pickup cavity's and possibly into the electronics. What should I do...

Yeah this is exactly what i planned on doing. :cool:

Im mainly looking for a nice smooth R&B tone but also capable of playing, Jazz, Fusion, Gospel, Hip-Hop, with a decent slap tone to be used every now and then.

O.k., so I'm currently debationg whether to buy a Warwick Thumb Bolt-On 5 for $1200, and a Fender Victor Bailey Jazz Bass V for $1500. I saw both of these basses on craigslist and I contacted them both and they were both available and I'm trying them out in the next few days, but If this were...

norwegian wood-Victor Wooten. I played that for our schools Beatles concert and it was just incredibly fun to play.

At my home church I get $50 a weekend but there are 5 services. When I play at other churches I typically play without pay. But i kind of know what you mean because i started playing at this other church where the keyboard player was making $25 an hour, and was the only one on payroll for the...

Yeah I know how you feel. I would definitely get a 24 Fret passive fender if it was available.

MAN! That Looks So Fresh!

Ok, thanks for the advice. I think i'll probly do that because i bought both of the basses at the same time and money really isnt an issue so probably in a month or two i'll take it over to jives shop and see what he can do. But heres what i was kind of thinking: Squier Vintage Modified...
