Jesus dude, wash your shaging hands.
Nothing kills the mood like some yelling fire in the hole. I've had this happen before even after washing my hands twice. Damned high heat jalapenos.
I figured she liked it... She came back for more of Bryce's special sauce.

After trying a few things it's very possible I'm just not a jazz bass kinda dude. Every time I play one I just wind up trying to make it sound like a P bass
So, I emailed CL guy with the Peavey preamp - his girlfriend that I was supposed to meet tonight forgot to take the preamp with her so now I wait until Thursday when dude is back in town. Frustrating but he's still in communication at least so hopefully I get the thing. I WANT IT.
Sabbath next Friday, roadtrip to motor city for that one, don't care - Sabbath.
Other than that busy busy busy. Work, school, band, work, school, band.

Who's got that kind of time?! Ha!
I just decided I can either keep the Custom Shop J or the Dingwall Super J, not both. Leaning toward keeping the Super J
That's hot.
Local pawn shop has a 80's Gibson Ripper on the wall, want so bad but can't really justify it.
Sell the CS Jazz, keep the Super J, buy another Precision. After all the different types of cheap ripoff, respectable name brand stock, high end made to order and custom basses I've owned...I like my DIY pine body P bass with the Mighty Mite neck best. Knowing and accepting your gear preferences is pretty difficult when there's so much cool stuff out there to try.
Day 2, no blood was spilled this day.
New Shogun/old VEGA tune. The guitarist basically went into riff coma as we shoved riffs after riffs into his brain helmet

My happy place.
Really comas of most varieties. Green comas, food comas, exhaustion comas and riff comas. Basically everything that puts me down for the count. It's not that I crave death, it's more that I want to sleep through life.
I always want to like jazz basses, but I just can't. The bridge pickup is so much less useful on its own than the one on my Rickenbacker.
i just woke up, gotta meet up with the photo girl today and meet up with the painter girl later, dedicated myself to practicing every day for at least 30 min like i used to in 7th grade to avoid the weird winter stiffness and muscle memory amnesia i'd been dealing with the last few weeks
I love the look of a custom colour Jazz, especially with a matched headstock. I think a Shoreline gold Jazz, matched headstock, with binding (inlays can go either way, I like dots and blocks), lollipop tuners, and the covers is one of the coolest looking basses ever. Or Burgundy Mist. But I prefer the sound of the P-bass by far. When I use the jazz, it's almost always neck pup full on, bridge pup full of, to try to get as close to a Precision as possible.
I used to play exclusively jazz, but since I bought the Ibanez P, it has become my main band instrument. I set the jazz up back to standard tuning and it's now my home practice bass.
I like the jazz neck, but prefer the p pickup by far. All kind of moot points because I'm not a fender person.
