Let's spread some musical misinformation

You forgot to mention fine wines and whisky. You can mature your TS9 by pouring a good twelve year old malt into it. For smokey blues, empty an ashtray into it after bourbon. John Lee Hooker gave the full recipe for sounding like him.

That listing got me thinking. If old analog pedals and amps age, then wouldn't the same thing happen to digital amps? I mean it's all circuitry...
 
On the topic of the tonal effect of having clay dot markers on your bass:

Clay dots are said to add a lot of mojo to the brown side of the frequency spectrum, like they will emphasis the powerful fecal tone qualities that extensive scientific studies has shown have a huge and vivid impact on how we physically percept the sonical quasi dimensional structures that inhabits the neural link between general sound waves and the time/space continuum, as well as progressively alternating the concept of the transcendental relationship between the momental velocity of the imperative momentum and the lethargic nature of procrastinating contemplation.

This comprehensive effect is speculated to drive women absolutely and utterly wild!
 
I thought I was on the "Misinformation" thread, but wasn't. I figured I'd copy and post in the correct thread. See what happens when you get old! ;)

Commenter 1: Very cool bass, I like the paint scheme. There's another famous Soviet bass out there, a Tonika I think it's called, which is a lot weirder-looking. This one is just conventional enough to fit in and just different enough to stand out.

Commenter 2: Hand made in the gulag wood shop.

Me: Hence, the rare and much sought after Jatoba/Gulaga Ibanez necks. After the Soviet Union collapsed and the gulags were shut down, the second iteration was Jatoba/Bazinga, but Sheldon used all of the bazingas. Now, it's just common Jatoba/Bubinga necks that Ibanez makes.
 
Every thread on the electric side of TB which goes on for more than two pages always ends up being about classic rock.

Once you have thousands of pages, it becomes sedimentary rock.
Though if you go deeper, it might morph into igneous rock.
Of quartz you know, even deeper, it's liquid rock.
At the core of it all is heavy metal.
There is some iron-y there.
 
It was Leo Fender's wife who helped make the Fender P a success.

Every day she would thoughtfully encourage him with remarks like:- " Are you going to sit around on your duff all day..or get busy and make something of yourself!!?"
Actually, Leo is short for Leonnora, the classic woman behind the man. Most people think Leo is HIS name, but his name is Lynyrd Fender. She insisted they use her name and swore to never let the truth be known,and he finally agreed. But alas,Lynyrd got into an argument with his brother Skynyr Fender and at that point,he decided to tell all to the National Enquirer. :):D:laugh:

The women's model is called the LADY GULAGA/BUBINGA.
