Yeah I was glad he at least.

A good trick is faking confidence lol.

I put an ad in my area a few months ago. I got a call from a guy interested in vocals. He seemed really on edge and breathing really hard. When asking about his experience with music he said he opened up for some band at warped tour once (which is neat but I'm not really a fan of warped tour). I...

If you acknowledge that you have made a mistake I was always taught that you're insulting the audience. Think of the models that walk down the catwalks and fall off the ones that would get selected is to make it look like you did it on purpose.

There's always promotion if you do an album. I was always told if you have an album you almost can't sell almost give them away. But that's a lot of money. I would say don't consider making an album unless you have enough to not just make the album, but to promote it.

I have a hate love relationship with my glossy neck because at one point during playing it will be fine but once I start sweating a storm then my hands are slipping all over the fretboard.

Hopefully it wasn't shipped out with it setup because if inspected it with it setup goofy he might have heard buzz somewhere else and go "yeah that can be set up better and will go away" then sent it to you and got messed up it's been in a non temperature controlled environment and when he set...

I remember when I was younger and the older guys at the shop where I started taking lessons said that bass playing shouldn't be more than playing a constant 4th and 5th and maybe a few walks here and there. I of course ignored them and always tried to play like Jaco (almost impossible lol but...

True I should've said he could've downsized and still got something decent lol.

I've always heard rumors of these things like how Slash from GNR's Gibson isn't actually a Gibson. It seems interesting and if there ever had to be a conspiracy theory in the world of instrument it seems like this would be the ultimate one. Until we find that Leo Fender was actually a shape...

If you are Putting everything through a main, It might be worth getting something with a built-in DI like something Peavey has been doing. I would make you less likely to be lost in the mix when the sound guy is doing sound check.

It's what sells. People are more likely to pick up an instrument they had bought for cheap then put it down not long after. I guess fender thought they would be making another $20 per sale of squier's. I've never liked them, I always said if you want good low end go to Ibanez or Epiphone. Maybe...

I feel like Basses age like cars. They're nice depending on how the original owner and the ones after it had treated it.

That's what I'm saying. I think the only reason you should listen to cassettes anymore because they are nostalgic or if you can't find a CD copy of it. Or maybe there's a reason why there is a Cassette copy of the album. Like Macintosh Plus' Floral shoppe, when it actually portrays to the art...

You know I usually find people on cragslist not know what they have but this one takes the cake. I wish my area had ads like this.
