    About Geddy Lee's Bass Technique

    Yeah I noticed that as well, most of his picking is done with the index finger and occassionally I'll see him throw the middle finger in as well. I guess Jamerson was similar?

    Jane's Addiction and Eric Avery reunion.

    I didn't know Eric Avery played with Alanis. Pretty weird considering her old bass player left to play with Janes as well.

    Fender converts

    My first bass was a MIM P-Bass and I hated it. I didn't like the way it sounded and the neck felt too big (I have small hands). I went to return it and get my money back. When I was there they had 2 70's MIJ Re-issue Jazz basses, one had a maple fretboard, the other one had a rosewood fretboard...

    I know he played for Ozzy. Not sure about BLS though.

    The 2008 Stanley Cup Playoff Thread

    The Season is a long one. They should shorten the pre-season and maybe think about canning the All Star break.

    Playing the acoustic bass solo way

    Cool stuff. I checked out his site and saw that he has pictures of your two basses in his gallery. Mind if I hit you up with a couple questions before I place an order with him?

    Playing the acoustic bass solo way

    Is that a Kinal you're playing? I want to get an acoustic and he's based out of my home town.

    Gary Sinese

    I actually went to see Segal play at the River Rock Casino when he was here in Vancouver. He's pretty weird now, and for some reason he kept talking to the crowd with some sort of a jamaican accent.

    Flea... with METALLICA?!?!

    Yeah, I'm the same. Like on Sad But True there are a couple parts during the main riff where i can hear a low end rumble.

    Flea... with METALLICA?!?!

    Some songs i can hear the bass and then I just sort of lose it along the way. My ears suck though. When I listen to a song I can only hear one thing at a time, if that makes any sense. For a split second the bass will stand out, then the drums, then the vocals etc. etc. I know a lot of people...
