Oh... you're one of [I]them.[/I]

Haha, what for?

Sneaking out of my house to chill with the lady friend.

Boo, that sucks.

My lady friend has over the top parents.

She still has a bed time... :/

Meh, that's not so bad.

It does when it's 10 oclock.

Either way, we see each other alot anyhow so it's not bad.

Actually, her mom is a professor at my University.

... i have no idea what that is :confused:

Ah, well i dont know, but you dont need a motorbike over here. Or a car for that matter.

All new residents to Australia are presented with a kangaroo upon entry. You simple sit in the pouch, tell the kangaroo where to go, and your set.

Hey.

For real? I wish America was like that. :upset:

Fo realz.

All they give you when you reach America is a cavity search.

Don't forget the coca cola, apple pie, lard, and blue jeans.

Is it warm apple pie? It damn well better be.

The only lard I got was our vice president.

It's warm cause he recently had sex with it.

Akira's Conklin is beautiful, nice grab.

I love it. I still can't believe I found it at GC. And I feel really lucky - I saw it yesterday but didn't go get it today. I am so glad no one bought it.

How is it tuned?

BEADGCF

They've had a lefty one come through there a few times, but I didn't see that one in there.

I don't think I've seen one there before. They also had a used Line 6 Variax, which would have been awesome if it worked right. For some reason they only had like two sixers in the whole store though.
I feel like such a bad bassist because I know I am going to spend like all my time in the high strings and neglect the low stuff.

Don't see yourself as a bassist then.
Musician :p

I'm excited for my 6 to get here.

That's a pretty lucky score, even if I had the chance, I don't think i'd buy a 7+.

Maybe that will change once I get used to my 6.

I actually don't consider myself a bassist at all really. I mean I like to play bass lines, but I like to play melodies too. I play bass because I like the feel, and really the timbre too, but I don't subscribe to the common idea of a bassist's role.

Band wise I do.

I do my roots, I do my lines. Whatever creativly fits.

When I'm at home, I take more of a experimental side.
Effects, weird riffs, stuff from the heart really.

Yeah. In a band I play like a more typical bassist, just because that is what works.

I can't over how weird my four feels. I pick it up and the neck looks like an inch wide. It's creepy.

EADGCFB#?

I bet the Conklin neck is almost 2.5 times the size?

[QUOTE=PaulSimonon;13528666]EADGCFB#?[/QUOTE]

I might try it sometime.

If I had that I'd tune it CFBbEbAbDbGb with the C being between the normal low B and the E.

Or DADF#BEA. But that would be for a 7 string acoustic guitar...

[QUOTE=One Groovin Clown;13528668]I bet the Conklin neck is almost 2.5 times the size?[/QUOTE]

My ruler says the OLP is 1.5" at the nut and the Conklin is 2.5" at the nut. I might just be tired and measuring stupid.

An extra inch wider?

How does it feel in your hand?
Do you find it's easy to get accostomed to?

Sounds right on the OLP, probably spot on or within a few 16ths of an inch.

Dunno the measurements on the GT, but that's about right.

I will probably keep it standard. I considered before I found this getting a six tuned tenor, but the problem with that is I would probably end of missing the B even though I wouldn't use it a ton.

Yeah, that's how I am... I'd barely ever use a B if I had one. A C on the other hand....



But I've been reduced to a guitar player mostly now that I've got my fine lady around. Not to mention that the human lady in my life takes up some time too...

[QUOTE=One Groovin Clown;13528703]An extra inch wider?

It's pretty massive. I definitely won't have to worry about my hand grabbing the neck like a baseball bat. :lol:

That said, I have very long fingers, so it's not bad. I can do a 1-5 stretch on the low B. It's going to take some time for my wrist to adjust though.

I can't play guitar. I've tried, but it just is totally unappealing to me. The strings are too small and close together. Plus I like the timbre of bass better.

Guitar is unappealing to me as well. The higher frequecies bug me.

All i can do is power chords :cool:
