    Where do you want to go?

    I'm planning on pulling a Kurt Cobain once my band revolutionizes the way people listen to rock and such...

    check out my band, i need advice...

    If you're not happy with the layout, then by all means change it. I don't think it's half bad, myself, but meh. And are you having problems with your current drummer? He seems to be getting the job done.

    matching guitar and bass

    Now THOSE are matching basses and guitars. You couldn't get closer if you tried. OP showed us that.

    A teensy bit of sweet revenge

    Sounds like a pretty clean break compared to the other stories ITT.

    Craigslist "stand-in bass player wanted" ad of the day

    I'm sure they're all outstanding members of society. The bassist was the black sheep of the band.

    Gigging in a band on an instrument other than bass?

    Being a bassist is 25% knowing your ****, and 75% ignoring everybody else.

    A teensy bit of sweet revenge

    People just think it's easier to break all communication and move on instead of going through the not-so-messy details of leaving a band. You did the right thing. I'd be ruining the guy's reputation too if I had the chance.

    TB'ers I need your help!!!

    Are you sure nobody just bought it already, which is why it hasn't been relisted?

    Affect on neck: keeping basses in case vs on a stand

    I always keep mine out on a stand. I have enough space to not have to worry about bumping into them, knocking them over, etc. I do have a quality case ready, of course, if I expect an earthquake.

    Why don't they make affordable basses look nice?

    I got my shiny, new Ibanez for about $200. It looks nice and gets the job done. I'll be on my way now, it looks like you have enough people proving you wrong in this thread.

    Showing off new Acoustic full stack

    What kind of music do you play? And any links yet of your new talent live yet? I'd love to hear what all this awesome gear actually sounds like.

    Critique my Band?

    Could they have given you a smaller stage? You guys were pretty good, I'd pay to see you live. And I can't give any pointers on the camera work, sorry. What kind of axe you playing, sir?

    Eric Bass of Shinedown

    Shinedown is already in my book for good bands to watch out for ever since "Second Chance" came out and topped iTunes. And the rhythm section knows what it's doing and how to do it well.

    Being a bass player...

    And such short necks on those things!! The few times I've tried to play guitar have been... embarrassing, so I've learned my place, so to speak. Then again, so have the multiple guitarists who have tried to pick up my bass.

    8 String Fretless Jazz

    I doubt you'll be able to comfortably fit all 8 strings on a jazz neck and headstock. Just go with the Warmoth neck, and happy modding.
