Let's spread some musical misinformation

That's what jumbo frets are for.

I thought they were because anything else is too delicate for a pachyderm to play on?

The more syllables a band name has, the better the band is.

The original working title for Queen's We Will Rock You was Stomp Stomp Clap.

This is how a great bass neck is made.

You ought to see them splitting the advanced stuff... Although they paint that stuff black and call it 'graphite'.
