Pete Quaife along with schoolmate,Ray Davies, founded the KInks in 1962. He a played a very aggressive bass style on a Rickenbacker.
The last number of every show concluded with an extended bass solo colloquially called Quaifing.

Orville Rickenbacker makes a very fine corn based guitar that sounds even better with a little butter.

Robert Trujillo learned his moves from Haka dancers and brought Metallica out of obscurity as his back-up band.

Rock On , Robert

The first bass guitars were extremely heavy due to the solid body being the size of an upright bass. There's a sound recording of the reaction of one musician trying it and complaining about the weight. Unfortunately it was censored some time ago and the only words not bleeped out were "rick" and "back". The rest is history.

In order to save the rainforests, only short scale basses will be allowed from 2025 on.

When changing strings on a set neck instrument, it is important to never remove all the strings. The glue is a non-newtonian (dilatant) fluid; as shear rate increases, shear force increases. This means that if you remove all the strings, the glue can become liquid and the neck fall off. But, it also means that the neck/body angle is easily adjusted by loosening all strings, changing the angle and tuning back to pitch.

If the stork brings human babies, it stands to reason that the goose brings baby ukes. Don't thank me, it's my way of helping.

So you are only going to post the pictures then?

Those pics would have to be blurred out for over 80%.

I call nonsense and tomfoolery!

Everyone knows that Geddy has written another book. He has given up music and wants to be come a paperback writer just like his hero - Nikki Sixx

Tremolo is derived from "Tremble Low," which is what Leo Fender named it on his 50s open back Bassman amps. He thought the added throbbing and rumbling effect would take his electric bass guitar to another level.

Leo didn't always get it right the first time, and the early Bassman 4x10 combo amps with Tremble Low would shake and tremble so much that they fell apart. NONE survived. So Leo omitted Tremble Low on subsequent Bassman combos.
