Thanks for the link, Rip. I checked it out and it looks worth the try. I'm a 5ft tall nurse by day and play bass all night so my back always kills. I'm pretty sure I have a pinched nerve. Sorry to hear about your back pain Fishtx. (I found this thread looking for strap suggestions.) A...

I meant it to be hypothetical answer, and then just got into the idea of wonder whether I'd be fired for getting so mad about it/refusing to play it or quitting bc I just would lose interest if my band played a song I hated and we agreed not to play; that's all. Didn't mean to say you were...

Here at the job, and everyone asked me to switch the station when SRV came on (what the??) to contemporary adult hits.... and guess what song came on... CALL ME MAYBE. It's terrible. I don't blame you for hating it and being very offended when your bandmate wanted to play it when you agreed...

Possibly me +1! I'll be on vacay, but I'm a benny:p , so not sure if we're going down that way. What kind of music is it? I'd check it out, but work has myspace and facebook blocked. :help: Edit: Just checked it out! Fun stuff!!

Hello fellow NJian! Checked out your soundcloud. Love the dub stuff. :D

Hooray!!:hyper: I mean :cool:

Hello fellow NJ-ians... lovely weather we're having. Just checking in. I'm from Jersey city. :cool:

Good point. Never thought of that... use the mix to make it more full.

Thanks. Just checked it out. Sounds pretty good in this vid. Didn't hear much delay... Not in love with the guy's "guitar" tone, but it still sounded pretty full.

I think the Squier Modified Jazz bass is a pretty dead on choice for you. It's a $300 Jazz and fretless. You'd probably have a lot of fun.:bassist: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/bass/squier-vintage-modified-fretless-jazz-bass

Awesome! I have the game. I don't think I'd ever leave the house if I they'd expand it for bass.

Hello, I'm just a musician (keys, guitar) that picked up a bass one day and couldn't put it down. I think I've found my calling. Glad to find the gamut of skilled bass players represented here. When I'm not here, I'm scanning YouTube for a new lesson. Love to read about gear and effects...

Looked this up just yesterday! Here's some theory, a video, and a pretty helpful transcription of Carol Kaye Chordal Scale Exercises from a teacher in Australia: Invalid Link Removed

This pedal came to mind as soon as I saw this thread. I feel like it could be pretty awesome during solos, especially for 3 piece bands.... There seem to be mixed reviews here on the forum, with tracking problems in the bad reviews. No reviews on Musician's Friend. Does anyone know of...

Same order goes for me. There's a finesse to fingerpicking that I really enjoy. Slapping I use to get a point across. I find I rarely go to a pick... for me, it's good for speed.
