Chuck is all that and more.Word.
Super player from what I have seen, not just good or better than many, electronics wiz, rebuilds engines, (likely does brain surgery in the garage as well in spare time), and is one of the nicest humans on Earth.
Really ticks me off too. All that in one person and I's stuck with me....
Thanks for piling on!
Looking a little confused. Must be a bass player.
Because he's a bass player. Groupies always laugh at the bass player.
I'd guess E A D G but one octave higher.
That's just 2/3 of a guitar, not a bass.
So essentially it's the 4 lowest strings of a medium guitar set, but it's going to be higher tension due to the longer scale length.
I need one of those. Is that yours? Gotta be careful laying the king down...
You're way kind your highness....brings up the interesting point of the American fascination with the lead guitarist.....haven't spent years playing in Europe I recall their attitude (which they often voiced) of Americans dancing to the lead guitarist while Europeans favoring the bass and rhythm section....at the end of the day Becca or any other lead guitarist may sustain a screaming note for three bars (for example ) looking REALLY cool while the bassist (playing 16ths in this example) just pumped out 48 notes for the guitarist' one over the three bars which begs the question of which is more challenging in that instance....yes granted, the opposite happens often too but should not discredit the first scenario.....ime, non musical types are visually driven to make up for their shortcomings in properly hearing and understanding music.....
Some beautiful people in this club...thank you Donnie, no excuse (imb) for not having met in person yet......say, don't you have anything I can fix for you (on the house)?Word.

EADG an octave above like a guitar...yeah I dig Foley's stuff with MD,(Stanley Clarke played an Alembic one for years as well) you literally chord it like a rhythm guitar....thing here is the shorter scale lends itself perfectly as I don't care for the tension of piccolo sets on 34" scales...
Thanks for piling on!
Oh, lest we forget Roller Derby chicks dig him. It's endless...
Tom Cruse could only dream of all that (but does likely have more money--just a hunch--but given everything else who would need it).
...Tom Cruise wins.....he owns a P-51..
Who’s heading where?Some expensive chess pieces!
Me, with California on my brain........
In a good way!
I wish, always wanted to gift my dad one of these, got photo courtesy of (thx Mike) @GonePlaid .....
Mike finally got a decent camera?
