    Stolen Schecter Gryphon 4 in Raleigh NC

    I just found out that my house had been broken into while I've been away and my Gryphon 4 and a cheap SX guitar were stolen. Fortunately that seems to be all they got from me while some of my roommates were less lucky. I also have plenty of pictures and the serial number, but right now I'm just...

    What do you all think of this $100 find

    Rather cool looking, if it's built well and sounds decent then $100 is definitely worth it.

    How far can you get? HARD Flash Game

    Got 10.6 my first try, it's too annoying to try again.

    Adding a Bass to my collection

    Honestly, I though the MIM Jazzes or the Squier VM Jazzes played great... but then I tried a Jag. No comparison, the Jag was much more comfortable and playable. It's a bit of an odd spread you have there, but if you could save up the money for the Jag it would be worth it.

    Is it a fish? A chupa-cabra?

    We do need sound clips, with just the two strings. You can't ruin this instruments pristine oddness by giving it a full set of strings.

    New Yamaha RBX5 A2

    At this price I want one of these bad. Shame I don't have the funds now. Maybe I could sell something, but that would require actually putting the effort into getting rid of something.

    Why do GC "customers" feel the need to thrash the gear?

    These last few posts have been dead on my problem with GC. Of course the last post isn't only kids, if I can hear you playing a bass from the second I walk in the door, it's too loud. GC isn't a concert hall, it's a store, there are other people who want to try out gear as well, turn it down...

    Schecter Basses?

    Another vouch for the quality of these, plus they're some of the most comfortable basses I've ever played.

    To Chi or not to Chi? That is the question-

    I personally love the sound of the chis, so I would get them. That said they probably won't fit every style, just listen to the soundclips on Lakland's site, they're pretty useful.

    i-pod or zune

    I have a Zune and love it. I got a first gen right after they came out and it's been flawless. The software was rather clunky to begin with, but it's better now. The new Zunes are great, the touchpad is a great input method. Plus it's just great not being tethered to iTunes.

    Parker Fly Bass... Opinions?

    I'd love to try one, but their guitars weren't really my cup of tea when I tried them. The neck might work for some, but it was too oddly shaped for my tastes. Extremely low action too, but once again it was too low for me. I could see a lot of people liking it, but I wasn't particularly...

    R.I.P. Michael Crichton

    Wow, did not see that one coming. I always did enjoy his books.

    Lock it or drop it

    I have Dunlops for my guitar, the bass does without. Of course my bass is lighter and has thicker ends one its strap, so it can do without.

    Can you play the Game

    I already won this game once. It's kind of weak now.

    Well how about a BONGO CLUB? (Pics inside)

    For what it's worth I like the black better.
