Which note does he give you? C ? A sharp? B natural? I hear them's very good for general, everyday piracy - good for the sea-legs and scurvy and stuffAnd that's why when I'm sick, I need a note from my doctor!
My doctor prescribed a G note........but when I went to the pharmacy to get the prescription filled they wouldn't sell me a whole note.......I had to buy a pack of 8th notes.......
Exercise extreme caution if you lay down the boogie and play that funky music. You could die.
More controls, pickups and strings are the holy grail to becoming a superior bass player.
Troubadours are wild and romantic and can be easily identified by their authentic gut strings. Falsebadours, on the other hand, are lame and uninspiring and use petrochemical and ferrous strings.… They tell tall tales and should never be trusted.
if you own a bass or a guitar, sooner or later it will be destroyed by the insect pictured below.
It is Frigginbiggus Axemuncherus and is found in all guitars and basses that have any kind of wood in them.
The larval eggs are so tiny they cannot be seen by the human eye. They love basements, bedrooms and dark gig bags.
When they hatch, they reach adult size in 48 hours.
The eggs are common on the hands of people who don't wash their hands before assembling a bass or guitar at a factory. They are found world-wide.
They will eat all the wood on a guitar or bass.
Top picture shows a full-size female.
Bottom picture shows a guitar wrestled away from an infestation five minutes after they started eating it......

Willie Nelson breeds giant gophers who eat beetles.
Fred Dakes of the band "PixieDust" saw footage of Jimi Hendrix setting his guitar on fire with lighter fluid.....and was so impressed he wanted to try it himself.
But Fred decided to use gasoline instead of lighter fluid.
The picture shows Fred's guitar just moments after it caught fire......Fred and everyone at the show escaped unharmed but the building burned down.....

Many musicians want to know what kind of pups should be used on their guitar.
The pup in the picture below is a hum-bucking pup.
As you play, it carefully listens and when hum is detected will lick the strings which cancels hum.....
