cant wait to see Reid Anderson in person

Yeah not to mention those fake moon landing videos, remember that guys?

Les claypool 100% for me and it definitely shows.

I don't think any of the shhit mentioned itt this matters; I think his right hand technique is what mattered You have to do borderline pinch harmonics on every note to get that super overtone-y sound, and once you can riff with that technique you can dial in your mid highs and highs to...

Lmao cryin' Ryan easily how is this even a contest I swear the nerve of some people

Also instead of "bad photoshop" I think the poster meant to say "great photoshop"

Things I've learned today -everything on adult swim is 100% real and should be taken at face value -you can't overdub audio on to video -props aren't real -scale length is for babies

Yeah, hard to stay objective in a thread about amp color. I stand by what I said and I mean it when I say the sound that comes out sounds like the bass that's plugged in; my reference for this is the fact that I can plug 4 different basses in to my mesa bass 400+ and they all sound really really...

Get a metronome NOW! ;)

I'm sure most everyone stops subdividing actively after a few years studying music. However, an instance where I do find myself subdividing is in and around any tempo change situations. It makes it much much more cohesive when everyone is mentally subdividing during a decellerando or even a...

So true about the interactions between instruments. I feel like many composers starting out get stuck on what an instrument can do on paper, so they just write a blob of notes that might in theory work and be playable and may even be interesting in a vacuum, but doesn't necessarily fit in with...

Violin is my other "main", so I play way too much melodic material and can't sit still on a groove. I don't bother looking for people to play with because I know I'm insufferable :roflmao:

Haven't read the thread, just replying to OP: Yes, I'm a brand loyalist on two fronts; I have two '80's Yamaha BB's (400 and 1600), an 810E, a Mesa Bass 400+, and a Quilter Bass Block 800. I've never met an 80's BB that I wouldn't buy given the owner would let go. I've never met a Quilter...
