Surf Music Is Better Than Punk..

[MYLOWFREQ]

The best bass for surf would be the one in surf green color.

If punks could swim would they surf?

And, if so, would they play a new style of music and call it surf punk?

So Cal band from 1983

^^^^^^

@Humbled - aspects of this video might appeal to you. It was produced by ABC for local broadcast on "Goodnight L.A."
One can easily imagine the cameraman enjoying the romp, and calling for more inserts "for the editor."

I'd go more for a surfboard bass:

Roland made a bass that had some of those features.

Same skewed humbucker neck p'up as the Mosrite, but the proper look.

 

[bassbully]

ok.

Silly me. In the words of the Biblical King Solomon "nothing is new under the sun".

Miles, Jaco, Monk, Parker, and my mom

You do know that jazz also encompasses G, as in Kenny, and other smooth jazz artists.

 

[Off-Beat]

I need to know: is it okay to sit in a chair and play surf music?

Only if it's one of these

I prefer metal

As I alluded to earlier. This particular conversation is awesome. Here's a good bass for surf and/or punk. The right color for surf, the right attitude for punk.

If you want a great example of surf and punk mixing in 2015, here you go. Throw in some whacked out Fun House saxophone, too.

Love these dudes from Minnesota!

I used to skate to Agent Orange. That was before I worried about things like breaking my hands!

Ah come on man you don't need octaves SK8 & Destroyed.

The best side effect of this entire conversation is the references to Agent Orange. How have I never listened to them before? I just spent two hours on youtube. In a word...awesome. I'm wondering why they didn't become much bigger.

Who cares, they are still touring! Great band.

Awesome. I still have a chance to see them live. It's a rare occasion where a band makes an instant impression on me. Next time they're in Europe, I'm there.

Living In Darkness is one of those cd's that often gets stuck in my car cd player for days and/or weeks at a time. A true "all killer, no filler" album right there!

 

[Michedelic]

Yeah, there only room for punk and surf snobbery

Absolutely! Gotta keep this trollfest on point without any additional red herring argument distractions.

i don't care about a word in this entire thread until my question is answered: what is the best bass for Surf Music?

A Fender P-Bass of course....

Seems a Stingray would be more appropriate.

Punk, Surf, its got it all.

 

[Carl Hillman]

After carefully analyzing and studying the two for quite awhile now...there is absolutely no doubt that Surf music is better than Punk in any form....

Ocelots are better than mangoes.
