    Give My Iceman A New Face! :)

    Paint it like an elephant. With the lower horn as a tusk and the headstock as the end of the trunk. Would look pretty cool, in my mind, anyway.

    My favorite child is growing! Spider content.

    Spiders bother me a lot but I'm glad it's doing well. Ultra-5 is an awesome name though.

    Very cool video about how Carvins are made

    Thanks for the video, Dave. It was incredibly hypnotizing, I liked it. Too bad I can't afford a Carvin. :atoz:

    Warwick Bass necks

    I like the neck on my Corvette. I think it fits my rather large hands pretty well. I get no cramping or anything on my Warwick like I do occasionally with my other basses.

    Choose one magic feature for your fantasy bass!

    You find a wizard in a cave. He says that he will cast a spell on any single bass you bring him and from that point on you will be able to change one of the following features on that bass with your mind. They can be switched back and forth on the fly. Fretted/Fretless - Pretty simple, nothing...

    Dark Knight poll..for those that have seen it

    I couldn't really take the "Batman Voice" very seriously. It kinda just made me shake my head whenever Bale did it. Killing off Rachel was kind of... I dunno, weak. It was needed for Two Face's development, but it just didn't feel right. I'm positive Two Face is still alive. I didn't like...

    The schecter stilleto studio 6

    I have the fretless 4 string stiletto and I completely agree with tranceFusion. While the bass looks nice, balances well, is very light and easy to play, the sound is lacking. Thin and fabricated is a good way to put it. It sounds even worse with flats! I am in serious need of new pickups or a...

    For all you Claypool fans.....enjoy!!!!!!

    Basslines That Inspired you to Play

    I first started playing bass when I was getting heavily into Black Sabbath. I had just purchased the "Sold our Souls for Rock and Roll" album and Geezer's bass lines in the whole album made me excited about my instrument.

    Best Synth and Octave Pedals?

    I have to say, I've really been diggin' the EHX Bass Micro Synth. That is, until mine broke. But other than that, I'd recommend it. Sounds great.

    epiphone thunderbird is it worth it?

    I used to think my Thunderbird was heavy. But then, I got a Warwick. The Thunderbird is really a pretty good bass. Not exactly a buffet of bass tone, but the few it does have are really good. It has a great boom to it and if that is what you want, this is a great choice. Although it is...

    Surprise! Guitar center employees are idiots.

    I almost forgot about my most recent Guitar Center unpleasantry. I recently purchased a Warwick Corvette Std. from the GC in Flint, Michigan via the GC website. I had been discussing purchasing the bass with a guy there and he was very helpful, emailing me pictures of the different basses...

    Surprise! Guitar center employees are idiots.

    I find it helps if you know exactly what you want beforehand. For example: You are less likely to get a "Duh, why would you want that type of string? This kind is better." if you tell the fellow behind the counter the exact kind of strings you want. Pointing helps too. I've been met with...
