has anyone used an ashtray as an actual ashtray?

You mean it's not?

That explains the mess.

I'd be amazed if there aren't at least some bass-playing smokers (as compared to smoking bassists) who have done so, despite the impracticality of an ashtray with sides missing.

You're all wrong. It's clearly a turboencabulator. If you're not familiar with it, the original machine had a base plate of prefabulated amulite, surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two main spurving bearings were in a direct line with the panametric fan. The latter consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzlevanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented. The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-deltoid type placed in panendermic semi-boloid slots in the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a nonreversible tremmie pipe to the differential girdlespring on the "up" end of the grammeters.

I've been trying to find more info about the reciprocating dingle arm.

... but if there is no human around when it falls, does it really make a sound the owner still cry about the dinks in the finish?

FIFY!

I thought rockers used them that way as a matter of course. I even heard that's why they're called ashtrays.

Mine is sitting on my dresser, Mrs. Tedious throws the picks that show up in the laundry in it.

Pic, or it...
