Let's spread some musical misinformation

[Drgonzonm]

Clarence L fender was going to name the bass with frets the accuracy bass but he could not keep the bass in tune without tuning pegs.

This is correct,one other thing though,this needs to be compressed under 4 Ampeg 8x10 refridgerators.

Those are much better for keeping your milk in than anything Smeg makes.

It's the clothes you wear that makes you a good musician, just like expensive gear and a V8 van.

 

[Drgonzonm]

Those in the medical do not play in the keys of G, D, A,E or B, playing with #'s is considered hazardous in their fields, and require red labeling.
The people who work at discount tires assure that. Musicians play only in the keys C &Am because they remove sharps and. Fix flats for free. Modes are optional.

Bass cabs should be of lousy quality, so nobody notices your flaws.

People with high amounts of vitamin B in their blood become bass players! And the higher the amount,the better the player!

Sealed cabinets were originally invented as a means of preventing rodents, and insects, making nests inside the enclosures.

As part of the manufacturing process, they are sealed full of helium, to make them lighter to transport.

And the lightest of all are Ampeg 8x10 cabs!

only after you remove the beer and coldcuts

Everything sounds better on kazoo...

Some extra vitamin B is required to play the low B string. If you put a drummer on a vitamin E, A, D, G diet, he might pick up the bass one day.

Best to feed the synth player vitamin K. Some vocalist thrive on oil - it makes their coat shiny.

In the 1960s they used hydrogen, which is how the Yardbirds turned into the New Yardbirds after all the other band members apart from Jimmy Page were lost in a tragic bass cab explosion.

I'm pretty sure Geddy's cab leaks helium.

The best pressed petal rose"wood" fretless fingerboards are made from the Alberta Wild Rose...

MWAH!!

View attachment 2821221

The darker the petals used to make the fingerboard, the darker the tone will be.
I find it's best to have a blend of light petals near the nut and darker petals at the body, so when you venture into "solo territory" it doesn't sound shrill or nasal and still maintains some bottom; conversely, playing around the nut doesn't get too boomy with the brighter petals.


Frankly, I find domestic hothouse roses make the fretless sound boring, hence my preference to get wild.

Playing around the nut also requires a delicate touch, as too much pressure can be painful.

Many bass cabs have been replaced by Uber.

Many bass cabs have been replaced by Uber.

That's because Uber cabs feature an automated switching system, which puts the cab into lousy quality mode as soon as a lousy bassist is detected.

I'm very happy with my CashCab,sounds absolutely awful, but every time I turn it on lights flash, and I answer a few questions correctly, it spits out money. But I sometimes miss my old AbaCab,but one of the speakers blew And Then There Were Three!

The Steve Miller song was really titled "Abbacab-dabra".

Finger picking was discovered by Charles Darwin. He sailed the beagle to the south pacific where he met some head hunters. They used the severed fingers from headless corpses to play coconut basses. He also invented the headless bass as a result.
