Def the dad’s. Or maybe they got it yard sale cheap?

I dabbled with a friend’s S-Berger bass and they were really interesting until you played it. Carbon and resin, weird pickups.

I have to have a stop for my hand/thumb, otherwise I don’t fret well from 1-3 on the neck. The head is functional.

I’m 100% here for the math rock era.

I was really hoping headless guitars would go away after the coke-fueled Steinberger craze of ‘86, but somehow they came back.

This movie is so much perfection. The Richard E. Grant pitch versus the final movie, the Whoopi/Lyle interrogation/intimidation with regards to Freaks, the intense headshot sex scene at the spa in the desert…

It’s Altman’s best, IMHO.

This reminds me of this video I saw with EEEEEE tuning.

I’m barely talented enough for standard and I learned to play using a book of actual chords, so leaving standard (or drop D) makes it a different instrument.

Which pups did you go with?

I love the shell pink.

I’m trying to talk myself out of a Bass VI with some fun money I have. The alternative is buying M a Squier Jaguar bass. She’s playing a $40 Craigslist Bronco now and sounds great, I feel like she could use an upgrade.

Thoughts?

I suspect the sphincter in the spout combined with the reflex of the bottle to go back into shape creates a steady vacuum that stops the drips as you squeeze it.
