Bass Photography!

These, and any decent pics of Brubakers I post were taken by my friend Preach...

No offence, but what do you need 10 strings for? To play harp?

While that's probably a question for the owner of the bass, I'll answer anyway.

Yes.

Wow that is beautiful! Thanks for the pictures! I sure would love to hear a 192khz DVD-A recording of you playing this bass... Maybe soon??

Thanks. It's not mine but I'll check with the owner and see what he might have. It's a handful but it was actually not as hard to play as it might look... for basic stuff. To really explore it's potential is another story entirely.

I'm actually considering getting a three string.

Wow! why did you give that up? It looks gorgeous! I had a Spinal Tap moment, could sort of 'see' the sound from that thing.

it was a HUGE mistake
But I still have this:

I took these a few years ago with a 3 Mega-Pixle Sony Cybershot that I no longer have. I've a 10 Mega-Pixle Samsung, but I really would like to invest in a pro camera. I have 3 pro quality cameras that require film but none that are digital with changable lenses.

Anyway, onto the bass.

I'm not sure how I feel about this.
On one had, it's cool as hell
on the other......well......it's pink.....my daughter would love it!!!

Might as well put a pic up of mine.

Following Fender32's advice on taking better pics with a pocket camera I took these pics of my recently sold Acacia Gruv/GLB.

I got all excited and took a bunch more that you can check out here. I took some macros but I wasn't happy with how they turned out so they aren't they're I'll post some of the bass I should be getting when I get some time .

Those tips worked wonders. My pics used to always turn out blurry and unfocused but now they look pretty sweet. And I don't know if Fender32 mentioned it and it's probably common knowledge knowing how slow I am, but natural light is your best friend when taking pictures. If you can't get outside get a room with some windows that let the sun shine right through.

Both my daughters dig it because it's pink. They call it "their" bass.

But, it takes a real man to strap on a pink bass. Sounds cool as hell though.
