Unless those are the ones you should use, of course...

I hate strings with silks. Last time I used them, I tried getting the silk parts off with a knife, and then a lighter.

They are definitely not the ones you should use.

I heard you can get rattlesnakes to lick them off.

Been away for a few days getting ready for my wife's operation which she had this morning (thyroid cancer), so I guess I'll be preoccupied for a while longer. Didn't want to just drop off the face so to speak, will be back to annoy you all again soon, be warned

Best wishes to your wife with the surgery and recovery, hoping for best possible outcome.

Glad to hear things have gone so well, Colin.

Thanks for the kind words, gentlemen. I hope to report a successful operation and recovery in the next few weeks as well. Staying positive since negative thoughts don't help anyone.

All the best to your wife and family Larry. Yes, stay positive.

Thanks, Mark.

LOL - Kat - your quick wit and dry humor should be shared on this thread...
Let's spread some musical misinformation

 

[Gaolee]

You are threatening to unleash our Kat on the rest of the world? I'm not sure that's a good idea.

In my mind, that is the best reason to do it.

 

[Gaolee]

Letting any of us get out into the general population too much is probably a questionable idea. It sure is fun, though.

I live to offend the sensibilities of others.

That sounds pretty Buddhist.

I knew a pretty Buddhist once.

LOL - a couple of our TBird clan are regulars over there. The misinformation thread contains a vast wealth of expert knowledge on every aspect of owning and operating a bass guitar. Kat's rattlesnake hack is exactly the keen perspective sought on that thread. Here's a taste of my sage advice to all those bitten by the bass bug...

Kat and others on this thread would fit in perfectly over there.

I gotta stay away, I'd just be taking pot shots those 7enderistas and their white hats. Get me kicked outta here

Took out the new Epiphone Tbird with active EMGs to practice tonight. Thing sounds so different from my other Epi and Gibson bird. Not anywhere as deep or growling as they are. The EMGs do sound good and the mids do cut into the mix very well. They also have a more modern sound compared to my birds with passive pups. Nice change of pace and will make a good backup to the Gibson.

Chiming in... I tend to play between the sweet-spot and the neck.

Sounds kinda sexy, don't it...

Pardon my cultural ig'nance... But what is that?

And probably! Lol...

That would put your taint in the middle of your back, so no.
