Let's spread some musical misinformation

Bad news dudes........there is only one black hole. It has as many entry points as there are apparent black holes in our universe. Therefore, at some point, equilibrium will be achieved and Albert Halls will start popping out at random places in the physical universe. Just think of it as a way to explore far away galaxies..........
This is not information. British slang defines Albert as:
British


  • A watch chain with a bar at one end for attaching to a buttonhole.

    Therefore, an Albert Hall (hole) is a black hole that creates a chain linking and allowing travel through both the universe and time but while traveling all you hear is a G7sus4 chord.

Albert Hall is in actualty the great grandfather of Monty Hall. Both being outstanding bassists,and entertainers. This family trait is still evident today in Montey's grandson Daryl Hall.

All the halls are secretly supported by the aluminum sliding industry, where bauxite is turned to elemental aluminum by the hall process, the best bass to play metal in any of the aforementioned Halls is an aluminum one, particularly one made from recycled beer cans. The basses made from recycled pop cans are used for pop music.
Don't make the mistake of using the wrong recycle bass, you will have join the Hawaiian lap bass society as punishment. And no island tours, or tiny bubbles, you will have to work the mid west tiki bar circuit, where it's pay to play.

Megan Trainor is all about the bass, and has an extensive collection of vintage Fenders.

Oh so much wrong there.

Megan Trainor is not actually a trainor, she is actually a trainee. And as much as she claims to be all about the bass, even the most cursory analysis of her music reveals that she is primarily about the treble.
 
After decades of intensive study on TalkBass and abroad, it has finally been discovered that the determining factor in the variance of the tone of Fender split coil Precision bass pickups (circa 1957 - 1969) is actually due to the plastic pickup covers and nothing else....

People consistently underestimate the effect of the strap on tone. Stay away from those cheap polypropylene ones. For real vintage tone, you need brown leather, unless you want a more metal sound in which case, you need black leather. I can't say what the best strap for metal is, but I will say that is it pink.

Also, the length of your strap determines what type of music you can play.
