If there was Bass Heaven....

well, I remember this one joke...
A bassist dies and after a long consideration of his long life or rock-drugs-funk they send him to Music Hell. He arrives, goes through the gates and sees that all the legends are here, jamming, Jimi Hendrix points at an endless wall and says :"Hey man, welcome, grab the bass you want, plug in, join the jam". The guy does so, and they start playing... And they play an amazing psychodelic jam for and hour, then two and three... at last the bassist says, ok man we`ll do this 2 bars and then coda, let`s take a break. Jimmi looks at him desperately and sadly says:"Man, we`re in hell, there`s no coda"
:)
 
Lmao no one has mentioned double bass.

But yeah, in Bass Heaven, there are angels that exist only to drum, and they can groove. If you need there are some with double bass pedal. Hahah yeah and there are no keys in bass heaven haha. Hahah it rains spare strings not because strings are broken, strings don't break in bass heaven, it's just so you can have new ones before you play. Every time you play something awesome you can always play it back on a magic tape recorder that will play anything you want to hear. Oh yeah and theres never any fret buzz.
