I have been playing music over 60 years. I started out as a ignorant rock n roller but have grown musically into the person my parents sent me to for classical guitar lessons.
If i have a question about musicianship, theory, jazz, or music publishing, I go to DB, remembering most of these guys have music degrees and own a tuxedo or two.
I spend a lot of time at BG but have little or no interest in gear effects electronics usw. I avoid the beginner theory threads as there is a freakin universe of good info already out there on the internet. I look at the bass guitar as a tool, not a wife , so I dont get hung up on the tort vintage signature debates unless its the John Mayer model (great thread). I really dont see any serious stuff going down now in instruction or technique and i freelance so i really dont care about band angst. So i wind up in miscellaneous a lot.
One very useful piece of info i have gotten from BG is Grolsch washers as strap locks.
Scared of forums? Not really. I can usually back my statements up with facts. I know stupid by the smell and usually will go mute rather than start a flame war with the left side of the bell curve.
