The letter "b" is optional.
next question: What is it exactly you love about "chicks with bass"?.
Take the scenario forward some time, you are now living with "chick with bass" looking to a bright future.
a) do both of you play bass, but in different bands and not talk bussiness (think the move Mr & Mrs Smith).
b) both join forces and play in a 2 bass band.
c) one of you has to give up bass to raise the kids.
d) you offspring will also learn bass and all play in a family bass band.
Awesome! Did you keep it around for when you need an extra hand moving all that bass equipment for gigs?
Not for moving bass gear, but I did keep it for, uh, other purposes...

D baby, D
You are presuming that the chick wants to have kids. I'm childfree and proud to be.
autodidact: I'm having a grade 8 yearbook flashbacks (1980 for those who suck at math) and the urge to play the bass line from Hungry Like the Wolf.

If she is better than me, i would step down and pick my guitar up. No brainer.
All things being equal, I'd let her play what she wanted to play and I would play the other, no questions asked. I assume she would do the same. I mean, the whole purpose would be to make music together right?
Right?
I think playing a little jazz with 2 basses and a drummer would be fun too. But I'm an old-school rocker, so she would definitely have to be able to take the lead in that type of project.
I think Tbird covers that in on of the videos! Check it out!!
And Tbird, for the first time since 1989 while living in Macon Ga, I have serious gas for a Thunderbird! Good Lord, you have a great tone. Amazing technique too. Now I have to start dropping hints for Christmas
I was kind of disappointed that the turtle neck aspect of the sweater wasn't accentuated very much but it'll do.

In that vid I'm playing my Lull, it's a fantastic bass - the pickup is reverse engineered from a '63 Gibson, I love that bass! Being a devout pick player - that song nearly does me in!
Cool that the guys posted some shots too, You're all handsome gentlemen.
This one had me laughing so hard I almost fell off my chair. I think it must have been the absurd imagery... zombie movie meets porn or something...
Someone awhile back wanted chick with chick vs chick with bass. So, here's the comparison pic to go with the "chick with bass" I posted a few pages back (sorry to take so long to get around to the comparison, I'm slow...)
Or possibly I was confused and this is not what he meant by a "chick with chick" pic?

LMAO on the last 2 pages. You guys crack me up.
I'd post a pic of me and my spectacular moobs, but at my age, I'd have a troll festival to deal with. I have to take more care in my appearance as get I older. I don't want to be that guy in the sweat pants, wifebeater and high tops that you see in the 7-11 some mornings. I did iron my shirt for the gig at The Spot Underground in Providence where a fantastic young photographer named Kristi Kinsella took that picture. [The with bass pic]. I did pay her for the image so I could use it, and I had a couple of bucks in my pocket that day so all was cool and I finally got a decent stage pic.
She also took a pic of me with a Burns Scorpion that ended up on the Burns guitars website. I was flattered and paid her for that one too, as Elvis is on that page. Yeah, me and The King, we go Waaaaay back.
