TB Cliché's and their opposites

[cymbop]

Tone is in the gear you buy.

Fender's quality control is really soaring these days.

 

[Slevage]

Fast neck opposite-
Slow technique

 

[MuseChaser]

You forgot alto clef my guy.

Only because it never shows up in legit bass parts. Treble and tenor frequently do, in addition to the usual bass clef.

 

[BismarckHerring]

One finger per fret - One finger per string

Floating thumb - Sinking pinkie

 

[Honkey tonk]

I love fender clones and poop on real 7enders

Does anyone remember The Butterflygirl?

It was practically a meme. But no one knows what happened to it or who owns it now. It's probably lost to eternity, never to return.

Mothman ate it. As was foretold in the prophecy.

 

[mambo4]

I had a respectful honest adult conversation with my band and our issues were resolved

If it's too quiet, you're too young.

I like the way you think. Pickup truck is the right direction as an opposite. But first, you have to realize there IS no carrot. Once you understand you will know that, conceptually, carrots ARE the opposite of carrots.

At that level of enlightenment? Rutabagas become interchangeable.

i REALLY like the way you think

 

[Jim Nazium]

I love UPS, Fedex, and USPS! Never had a single problem with any of them! I can't decide which one to use to ship my next sale beacuse I like them all so much!

 

[JenderBazzFass]

This is the least incredible bass I've ever played, I bonded heavily with it, but I've got to thicken the herd

"today i would like to whine on and on and on about some of the good things that are happening in/with my music!"

[Paul New]

A P Bass always sits well in the mix.
My P bass is mixed up so i threw it in the well.

 

[Tom Bomb]

Sure could use a good Rutle, right about now.

Rad bass for sale with AWESOME UPGRADES
vs.
A formerly pristine bass for sale with MAJOR downgrades! Since I did them myself and they seriously detract from the character of the bass, I'm reducing the price by the full cost of the components plus the amount you'll have to pay a pro to bring it back to stock. SORRY, my stupidity is your gain!

Need the magic pedal to give me that mojo that my current chain of 473 FX just doesn't have!
vs.
I'm going to unplug everything between my amp & bass and PRACTICE more. Won't be posting on Talkbass for a while! Tone is in the hands!

 

[creaturegods]

what is the opposite of "threw a set of Chromes on it" and "put it through the paces"?

 

[MasterMonkeyMan]

"Took a bit of Edge off it?"
"Never touched it again?"

Just some guesses
