Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

#4,282
Man I had been playing guitar only for a long time till I finally finished up the Forever bass build. So last night I pulled out the Bass Tab Method book because it has all these simple bass lines from classic Rock and Motown songs, like just the main riffs only and mostly in first position and lots of open string notes.. It was more fun that a barrel full of monkeys and I didn't get the stop noodling and play a song already jib from the ol lady. What a cheap and fun book, glad I picked it up. Between waiting for the neck to adjust to the strings to do a proper setup, not playing bass in a long time, some much first position work, and round wound strings, my left hand is actually sore from playing, haven't felt that pain in ages lol.

Yesterday was the first day of my last class for my degree. Man 5 weeks of solo projects, group projects, reading, research, exams and quizzes, but then it's all over!

In other news though, there is a girl who sits a few down from me, and I must meet her, she looks just like a young Winona Ryder.

My girlfriend breeds hedgehogs and sugar gliders and a gal met us at Sushi King parking lot before we went in to eat. Well out of the car comes a Kate Beckinsale looking gal in tights!!! And she was searching through her car looking for her pen and she had an arse you could bounce a quarter off of!!! Oh those tights, I am not deaf but I could read her lips!!!

Cool, reminds me of the cottage I rented on the Chesapeake Bay when I first moved to Virginia. Loved being right on the water, but I moved just in time, the damn thing flooded a month after I moved. Only to the floor but that would of still sucked big time. Plenty of yard for a mini pig and goat LOL
