I want to play fretless, but I cant find any good fretless sixers in the $500-$600 range.

Fair enough...... furry muff.

I don't know anyone around here who would be capable of doing it.

I didn't do too bad...The wood must have been really dry though, because whenever I popped out a fret, the wood actually cracked a little..

Phil: I played guitar first, I say that all the time but people think Im joking...

Omega Red: My main bass was $600, my main guitar was $450. If you honestly think you HAVE to spend over a thousand for a good bass then you must not pick up many basses in your shop...

[Omega Red]

bailey is a horrible fretless player, his intonation sucks

[Thonk]

Nope..and tbh, it doesn't really bother me that it's chipped up a good bit.

It's going to be coated in polurethane anyway. Sure, it would've looked a bit nicer..but I don't really care.

ok there is a diffrence between a guitar the works, and a really good guitar or bass or what ever. you can find something that ok at your local guitar center, but if you want a really nice nice instrument you have to spend a little more than 500

they're a half decent guide, before the 7th fret you muscle memory should be good enough you dont even have to look at the bass. above the 12th fret they help as a point of refrence, but you need to listen to actualy get the notes right. if you play on the lines you're going to be off

i work arround 3,4,5,6 thousand dollar basses everyday. there is no reason to be afriad. have you ever broken your guitar while playing it? no, maybe you busted a string, or something minor like that. but most pros really arent that concerned on how it looks or how expensive it is. the most important thing is the tone, and feel of the bass. my basses have scars, a friend of mine named kevin, who's toured with derek sharinian, and tony mcalpine has a fodera emporer. it has it battle wounds. trust me you'll grow out of the i dont want to get it scratched phase, and you'll realize as long as it still plays in a great instrument.

[lemoley]

my neck trhough fretless has a bunch of scratches where the neck and body sort of meet, but its still solid and sounds wonderful, my fretted looks like it has a knife wound on the back of the neck near the 3rd fret, still slaps like a beauty

The first bass had a effed up neck joint, it snapped right off. The second got smashed because the neck was messed up. I took it to every shop from here to Baton Rouge and they all said they couldn't do a damn thing about it. So I just bought my Ibanez and it hasnt givin me a lick of trouble

Except I hate playing standing up, just because of how uncomfortable it [the strap] feels. But then I can't justify spending the money on a new one because I never play standing up.

Vicious circle.

[kilian]

I've got one white leather strap.

But when I buy the wine red Yamaha BB414 I think I want straplocks, an nylon black strap and learn a guitarspin. :lol:

I really can't wait 'till I have the new bass.. I've outgrown this bass now. Well.. It's a good bass, but I like the BB414 so much better that I rarely play these days. :amaze:

[Polyamarous]

I'm just in one of those lame emo teen moods.

I hate my life. haha.

Not true, but ehh.
I actually feel a little bit like that sometimes lately, sortof.
It's my mums fault, shes got clinical depression and nothing seems funny anymore. Its ****ing annoying but I guess she can't help it.

:chug:What've people got planned for the holidays?

I've already had one week off.

I'm just wasting time though. I don't have any mega plans.

You?

[Jody LeCompte]

I love my bass, but Im hurting so bad to play it through the Eden that I cant stand it

ever since they wer baught out their quality has suffered

[Jody LeCompte]

ever since they wer baught out their quality has suffered
I walked in to buy a Nemesis combo at the clinic and I ended up winning a Travellor 550 head, but I can't use it until I buy a cab.

Until then, my dad won a nemesis n-8 practice amp. It works, even though my B string hurts it.

[BenJammin]

John Zorn is sweet.

I have study leave in 6 weeks.

I'm doing basic revision, nothing intense.

[BenJammin]

i cant agree or disagree with you 'cause this is my first one, so yeah

Lol. Yeah. You'll go and you'll agree with me, but if you don't go, you'll regret it.

[PaulR]

Lol. Yeah. You'll go and you'll agree with me, but if you don't go, you'll regret it.
Don't you just hate situations like that?

[burtonbassist_101]

Lol. Yeah. You'll go and you'll agree with me, but if you don't go, you'll regret it.

haha yeah probably

[BenJammin]

Don't you just hate situations like that?

Oh yes. Haha.

Prom, graduation, all of that... completely overrated.

Did I go? Yes. Am I glad? Yes. Did I enjoy it? Hell no.

[PaulR]

Oh yes. Haha.

Prom, graduation, all of that... completely overrated.

Did I go? Yes. Am I glad? Yes. Did I enjoy it? Hell no.
I have a party tomorrow. I only half want to go, but I know that if I don't, I'll just sit at home moping.

So I'm going to go, and mope with some friends.

[Led_Zeppelin678]

Oh yes. Haha.

I skipped my graduation ceremony to play a crappy little gig for like 8 people. But I'm very glad I did it, and I enjoyed myself quite a bit.

Pretty much.

[BenJammin]

/bored

[PaulR]

Ditto, very much so.

I want a new avatar.

[BenJammin]

Well, I think I'm gonna go play bass (or try) and if that fails, then I'll play Mario Kart.

See you, Paul. And/or anyone else of any possible worth.

[PaulR]

Have fun. :wave:

[lemoley]

hey guys

[burtonbassist_101]

hey

then I'll play Mario Kart.

i haven't played mario kart in ages... i should dust off the old '64 sometime soon...

[lemoley]

hey burton

is the xbox 360 worth it?

[FunkMetalBass]

so my prom's tonight

Dude, have fun. I had loads of fun at my prom. I had a hot date (you can see pics of her on http://www.myspace.com/thegreatestband). And, to top it all off, I won prom Prince (the Junior equivalent of Prom King).

It's totally worth everything you pay for it.

The after-prom activities aren't that bad either. :naughty:

[Thonk]

I got to play a 360 yesterday.

The graphics are straight up insane.

[FunkMetalBass]

There are a lot of negative attitudes about life in this thread. Situations are what you make 'em. I was always very anti prom, but then went with a bunch of friends and had a fantastic time.

Make the best of a situation and you'll enjoy yourself.

[darrell]

I went to my Senior Ball (Prom for Seniors instead of Juniors)... it was pretty fun. It all depends on your attitude, like FunkMetalBass sort of said. :)

[Thonk]

I just got done putting the first coat of poly on my fretless.

I had that as my desktop background for about 2 weeks.

I laughed everytime I turned on my computer. :lol:

oh my god

:lol:

[lemoley]

on google video type in 'ask a ninja'

:lol:

[Tryxx]

I bought three sets of strings, one for my acoustic bass, one for my acoustic guitar, and on for my fretless... I love playing, but changing strings is a bitch and a half. It's just time consuming. Especially on the acoustic. ****ing pins.

[lemoley]

tryxx, is it illegal to make a 'check my band out and tell me what you think' thread?

[Thonk]

Mike, you play guitar right?

[lemoley]

yup


and im **** hot at washboards ;)

[Tryxx]

tryxx, is it illegal to make a 'check my band out and tell me what you think' thread?

Nope, we've got tons of those threads. :lol:

Feel free.

[lemoley]

oh ok, cheers man lol

[Thonk]

Do you know if I can replace soapbar type pickups (think EMG) with humbuckers? (think DiMarzio)

[The_Red_Death]

Wow, I really want to find a band soon. My town sucks. I was in a band for a while, but it was going nowhere, so the drummer and I quit. I've even put up flyers, and still, not one reply.

[lemoley]

it depends...

soapbar pick ups are smaller than humbuckers so they might not fit unless the soapbars are humbucker size

[BassVirtuoso]

I've realized that I can't stand anything in basses besides humbuckers and single coils.
