Sick playing!

:drool:

I laughed way too hard at this :roflmao:

Up for sale is my G&L L2000 CLF Series E. Jet black and maple neck. Plays and looks amazing. Only blemish at all are some light scratches on the back from a previous owner. Bass is light at 8.2 lbs and balances beautifully. Includes OHSC which is also in perfect condition. For all the specs...

I have this exact bass in burnt apple. Absolutely beautiful and the necks on these are incredible. GLWTS!

Thanks! I agree, I haven't seen too many of this finish recently. Definitely lighter than many other J's from this time period, and sounds huge -

As I recall he taught sections of guitar 1, 2 and so on which included notation, music theory, etc... The guitar ensemble class I was in was an audition group with the sole focus of performance, which I assume is why he went the tab route. And of course there were normal band, orchestra, and...

Are you under the impression that every professional bassist is reading notation?

I don't disagree that notation is valuable. There is a reason it has never been replaced and never will. I am grateful for my experience and for the music I was able to access as a kid who didn't learn notation. Had we learned notation we would have been playing Twinkle Twinkle instead of...

I played in a guitar ensemble in high school made up of about 60 kids playing steel string guitars and all of our music was tab, transcribed by our teacher. We played classical music from Bach, Vivaldi, Mozart, etc... The tab was written the exact same way notation is, but with tab as opposed to...

Thanks! Its a sick bass for sure

Up for sale/trade is a 2018 Fender American Professional J in roasted ash with maple neck. This finish is gorgeous in person. Sale includes a Bartolini NTBT-918 pre-amp that I wasn't really in to. I will include it in the sale so you can make it active again if you want. That configuration has...

I have Fender Pro J that plays beautifully in every way EXCEPT when I'm slapping and pop around the 8-12th frets of the G string. It doesn't buzz at all even when I'm digging in playing fingerstyle on these frets. I tried raising to action at the bridge a bit and this didn't feel good or fix the...
