Dude, go back and re-read the first post. These are supposed to be jokes, but they're a lot less cool when they need to be explained!

Just not a great sounding name for a Bass. IMO, of course.
Hughs & Kettner - shorten it up already!
Peavey - sounds like Peavely dairy products
Carvin - just don't like it!
Dr. Bass - Corny
Awesome company names:
Ampeg, Diesel, Orange, Hiwatt, Bag End, Spector, Ibanez, Ernie Ball, DanElectro, Ashdown, Mesa Engineering

Well said. That place is a hole. I lived there for almost 2 years.
Also "Slinky" strings. No thanks.
Get a nicer coffee table
Yeah...but then what would he do with the cinder blocks?

Human Bass...well, because it sounds kinky, reminds me of a certian Brian Bromberg CD cover. Some of you know what I mean
because it has a dorky name!
(This is a tongue-in-cheek type of thread, don't post here if you can't be nice about it. )
DOD - always reminds me of died on delivery
Crate: a crate of what exactly? beer maybe? empties perhaps?
Ernie Ball MusicMaster - I ddn't want anything that's been balled by an Ernie! Pre-shagged anyone?
Tongue firmly in cheek.
And it looks like someone shrunk the neck, and added six strings too, and replaced the pickups with guitar pickups, and... wait a minute... hey, that's a guitar!
I know, but they make basses just like it. As a matter of fact, here y'go.
music man it makes me think of that song, you know, "I am the musicMan i come from down your way and i can play...what can you play" yeah makes me think of that with An old man playing the bass CanCanning down a street.

Aren't you supposed to seek medical attention if something like that lasts more than 4 hours?

I'd be hesitant to invest in a "Henry the 8x8" cab (by SWR), just because of the execrable pun.
Whoever came up with that should have been fired on the spot.
I also wouldn't want to own any piece of gear with a lame, supposedly badass name like
"Destroyer", "Devastator", "Tormentor", "Dominator", anything along those lines.

The fat finger.
Some of us spend ages looking for the perfect balanced bass, install lightweight tuners and then screw a big lump of metal to the headstock.
Ashdown Labs.
Makes me think of geeks in white lab coats scurrying around with clipboards.
Trace Elliot.
Why would someone want to? You would need a big piece of paper depending on how big Elliot is.

Ever see the South Park episode when Mr. Mackey ("m'kay?") invented the self powered vehicle that consumed no gas, but required you to insert this thing in your posterior, and then put your mouth around this other thing to steer, and it turned out in the end that you actually didn't need the thing in your butt to make it work? That's what that lower horn reminds me of, one of those "things."
Can we call that the Mackey Self-Propelled Bass?
