Let's spread some musical misinformation

During the most recent technological advancements, Mathematicians, scientists and psychologists, while studying bassists, bass guitars, strings (flats, rounds, half -rounds) and bands in general, were able to establish several new types of theories: String Theory, Chaos Theory, Game Theory, Disputational Theory, Gear Acquisition Theory, and most importantly, a new law of physics: One good pluck deserves another.

Psychologists updated the DSM to include: Gear Acquisition Syndrome, Lead Singer Disease, Fired Drummer Syndrome, Vertical Speaker Cabinet Attachment Condition, Gxxtard Syndrome(now since removed), Suspended User Syndrome, Banned User Disease, Never Delivered Product Criminalization Syndrome, Mixing Cab Depressional Condition, How Come My Body Hurts Complaint Syndrome, Am I Too Old Depressional Condition, Tinnitus Chorus Attraction, Tube vs Solid State Mindmeld Dispossession.

There are a few more coming out so updates will be provided.

One day you're okay and the next day you're not. Good luck.

Short scale basses are young basses that will eventually grow to full size long scale basses.

You can tell the age by sawing the neck in half and counting the rings. In places with harder climates they take longer to mature which is why Geddy Lee likes old basses as they take that long to get to a 34" scale in Canada.

Bass VIs are just guitars that grew too fast.

The larval form of the bass is the ukelele.

Bass cases are just chrysalises. If you open them too soon you may find the bass is just mush.

Some bass larvae, much like the axalotl fail to make the transition to an adult form. This also occurs in Mexico. These can also regenerate parts if removed, which is why bass factories moved to Mexico, as instruments there can be farmed for parts.

Naturally the grand piano is the choice for portability too!

High quality grand pianos have a 3hp engine to allow you to drive them between venues. Piano tuning refers to getting optimal performance from the engine.
I wish my cabs had engines, in order to be driven from and to the van. My basses could use some aviation technology, so they can hover at playing height.
