A lot of folks keep talking about how Cliff sounded like a guitarist, well um...he played the guitar, the bass guitar. He didn't play a fretless or a stick or an upright, he played a bass guitar, 4 strings and a mess of frets and if there is only one right way to play it then I'm not interested...

I'm sorry can someone please direct me to the Cliff Burton thread?:D
