    The Major Fourth

    Huh. I dunno, man. A fourth in my improv (jazz, rock and metal) would probably be hit around 15% of the time, maybe once every 2 measures. That's just me, it's your improv.

    What makes a bassist a "hack"?

    Not necessarily being a pick player, but when they play live they: Strum! sounds weird, i know. They aren't playing chords- but they are unsatisfied with resting their hands, and they swing arms live. see Tom Araya

    Hartke

    Hey guys, I was wondering what you know about Hartkes. I love that crisp clean tone from Dave Ellefson, and Alex Webster- and I know that dave endorsed Hartke a while ago. So, I was thinking of taking a Hartke AK410 cab with a LH500 head- would that get me that tone?
