    Cocky "musicians" in the Audience.

    I don't see why a 5th string would indicate skill, I personally don't like 5 strings because I would never use that low B for anything, but that doesn't mean that I'm suddenly untalented or something like that. I would have wanted to knock him out too if he pulled that crap on me.

    best and worst things about shows with moshing

    At one of the first local shows I ever went to there was some kid in a circle pit going around punching anybody within reach, I was standing on the sidelines and he hit me square in the chest, I can't stress it enough how badly I want to just deck one of those guys whenever they pull something...

    How much of a problem is neck dive?

    Neck dive can be annoying because you're constantly having to cradle the neck with your hand, which can get tedious if the song you're playing takes you fretting hand all over the board because the neck progressively drops and you have to bring it up every 20 seconds. it's a pain, but it doesn't...

    Do you agree with this statement.

    I left this out, sorry. but music shouldn't be about whose instrument is harder, but about the music itself, and it seems that a lot of block headed guitar players can't grasp that.

    Do you agree with this statement.

    I think they're difficult in their own ways. basses have huge frets and bigger strings, so doing real complicated stuff can be a little difficult if your fingers can't stretch and maintain strength to push down the strings, that's why I feel guitar can be easier sometimes, because you barely...

    What bass lines influenced you the most?

    Megadeth- Five magics that's the song that made drove me to learn bass.

    New Jackson JS series basses?

    dude, I'm stoked, I've wanted a jackson for a while and these basses are targeted towards being cheaper than Jr's sig bass.

    Basses that disappointed you...

    I remember a Musicman that had a muddy and muffled tone, it sounded horrible, no matter what I did with the nobs nothing would happen to the sound. and same thing with a 5 string warwick.

    Do you own the best bass you've ever played?

    Nope, I'm still on my first bass. and I can't say which one was the best yet, they all sounded so great to me but I'd have to say the very best bass I've ever played was either a Warwick corvette fretless or a Musicman sterling 5 HH bass. I think the MM sounded a LOT cooler but the fretless was...

    If someone disrespected your gear...

    Well, if you knock the guy out you can count on him never putting his _____ on your equipment again.

    It's official! I'm part of a cult.

    very nice, I played a very nice MM at GC once, although it wasn't a bongo is was still a very high end bass and sounded awesome.

    Double Bass Has this ever happened to you?

    Have you talked with your drummer about it? maybe one day you and him should just jam since it's both of your jobs to hold to pulse, maybe you'll time your bass parts to his drum beats as time goes on.

    Hats off to Schecter!

    I like schecters, They're a very classy bass for type of sound they can put out, and they seem to be in decent supply, too. the only problem I've had with them is whenever I play them at GC the action is so low that that strings are almost touching the neck before I even put my fingers on them.
