Please stop with the " Plays Like Butter " thing ...

[Major Softie]

And the guitar salesman describes the bass guitar above as having "lots of Mojo." That's even worse to me than reading "Plays like butter."

If that bass had any more Mojo, there wouldn't be an bass left.

I've never played a stick of butter with strings so I can't help u with that phrase.

 

[eban3]

my bass plays more like cream cheese ..............

If Paula Deen were a bass player all her basses would not only play like butter, they would actually be made out of butter!
Oh, and they would all be white!

I once tried out a bass a guy had for sale and the action was so high from a ruined neck it was silly.

The guy started fishing for complements and asked how it played. I told him the first thing I thought of when playing it was it felt like sticking my fingers in cheese when I tried to fret it.

Maybe describing playability as which hard or soft cheese it felt like one was sticking their finger in would be more acceptable to the OP?

Just trying to offer helpful alternatives to buttah.

It looks and plays like butter!

Every bass is better with Blue Bonnet on it.

 

[Shakin-Slim]

All three of my basses play like margarine.

A cheap, tasteless imitation of the real thing?

LOL! Good one, Zen!

Us old timers remember that commercial all too well!

All my basses play like cocoa butter and smell fantastic.

Strippers here in Indy do not smell like cocoa butter. Unsure what the "scent" is but im pretty sure they have a 55 gallon drum of it at each club and all the dancers use it.... or so ive been told... yeah thats it
