Orange caps have to be peeled and have the seeds removed or you won't get as wet a sound.

Let's spread some musical misinformation

Seafoam is a cool name for a band, and all the instruments must match.
And you can only play a Mustang when horsing around.
You can only play a Jaguar if you're feline like it.
You can play a Warlock bass if you're spelling another player...
Even worse: The wood stock (yes two words, no capital W) was also destroyed by this fire.
No one knew exactly which wood to use and how to prepare it.
Wait, there was a fire at Woodstock? Oh, the tonality! Women and lead guitarists first!
Also, fact: the lower you can wear the bass on the strap, the better it will sound.
'Tonewood' is almost as good a band name as 'Seafoam'!
Skrillex, dropping the bass? Never gonna happen.
Larry, Moe & Curly Joe were Iggy Pop's original band.
Shemp, of course, was the bassist, which is why he's not in the pic of the band...
Janet is not his sister, they are the same person. Have you ever seen them in the same room together?
Spot on! In fact the whole "wardrobe malfunction" and subsequent gratuitous boob shot was all faked with prosthetics just to throw us off track.
But none of this explains why Angus and Malcolm Young wanted AC/DC to be a pop/dance act after Bon Scott died.
Well obviously they wanted pop/dance because they suck at Salsa dancing. Everyone knows that.
If you hook up three Looper pedals you can travel in time, but you have to be careful you don't get stuck.
If you buy a signature bass, you will sound exactly like the signature artist, regardless of what you plug it into or any effects in your loop.
Signature models let anyone, regardless of skill, sound exactly like the artist in question.
In fact, depending on where in the manufacturing tree your bass is from, you need fewer things to make it work. For example, let's say Squier released a Groovy Peter Tork Affinity Bullet Jaguar Bass. It would need better pickups, strings, 'tonewood', ect. Meanwhile, the Fender American Pro (?) Groovy Peter Tork Jaguar Bass could play itself, even stripped to just the decal and plugged into a banana.
