    Anyone use this 'cure' for ~slippery~ basses?

    I've used hockey tape on slippery guitars and basses, works good but you may have to replace if the tape slides off which hasn't happened yet just little parts of it start to fall but stay on

    Why are most short scale demos played with a pick??

    I don't think it has much to do with people twisting your words, some of your statements are unclear and vague and your leaving it up to the readers to fill in the small details. Be more specific with your words or don't get so upset when people try filling in the blanks. My two cents I'll leave...

    Are bass amps obsolete?

    Unless the volcanoes erupt or the sun burns out before hand lol. besides I think alot of these ideas take the live performance/music out of going to a show so you wise we'll stay home and watch music on YouTube your your mp3 an BAM you've got a performance with earbuds

    Gah pick is hard...

    I find setting the bass on my left leg on a diagonal angle and picking close to parallel with the strings works for being the most comfortable with good distance playability. Just my personal experience

    5-string EQ Suggestions/tips for metal?

    Why would a blend noble kill the tone? My impression was you can just mix the overdrive with the clean tone and if the pedal doesn't ruin the low end when using overdrive how would the blend ruin it?

    Thirds Theory Practice

    No you got it correct, I do believe your right in your answer I just always thought that to play a scale in thirds you'd ALWAYS be going to play a minor or major third (3 or 4 half steps) after the note just played, you put marks between each pair of notes but for example E to D isn't a third, F...
