In case it eventually gets removed, here's the initial post for posterity's (and humor's) sake:
its barley even a reall instrument when we solo they play a quater the notes we do and when do rythems they just play route notes on monster strings! SOME TIMES INSTEAD OF PRICESLY PICKING THE NOTES THEY JUST SLAP THE UGLY BEAST. And is it just me or are most bassist failed guitarist. They wont admit that though. any one ever looked on the bass forums theres like 9 million threads about how bass is actually better than guitar and harder than guitarr... THERE LYING TO THEM SELVES ITS LIKE DRUMS BARLEY CONSTIFIES AS AN INSTRUMENT!!!!! And every one ever notice how annoying bassist are to jam with they try and pretend there on par with u. THEY DONT PLAY A GUITAR NOW DO THEY!!!!!!!!!!!! Im sure theres a couple good bassist out there though. NOT!! lol. and why do pple worship cleypool his bass annoys the frak out of me. Its so clanky its like a million times worse than listening to guy play a strat clean with the bass knob cranked and all the mids down. You know when i record a song my self i put in everything rythem guitar l;ead drums vocals but i skip the bass cuz i hate bass. I put it to u UG do u hate bass and bassist!?
Pretty funny, actually, though the replies are just as good.
He gets ragged on pretty hard by the other members.
