I'm listening to Buttercup...it sounds like trash punk, like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. At least, imo.

PaulR 08-30-2004 12:18 PM

Bass+Fingers+Amp=Groove 08-30-2004 12:19 PM

Foxfire 08-30-2004 12:21 PM

Country Music is a super fun song. I'm going to put together a medley of a bunch of Hamm and Wooten songs to try out for band at school.

Bass+Fingers+Amp=Groove 08-30-2004 12:21 PM

[QUOTE=PaulR]What stuff are you trying?[/QUOTE]

well i had the intro to country down, but the insane tapping solo part.... hard,

Foxfire 08-30-2004 12:23 PM

Which solo part? In Quahogs Anyone? A Night in Hell?

PaulR 08-30-2004 12:24 PM

My tapping could be much better.
I just havent really found any good resources on the web.

Lift with your legs.

Duncster 08-30-2004 12:36 PM

I've been trying to get quahogs down for awhile. It;s so much easier then it sounds on kazaa :o. I've got all up till sexually active pretty much down then most of country music. Course I can't play it they way hamm does.

Bass+Fingers+Amp=Groove 08-30-2004 12:52 PM

Yeah, there is Playing it, and then there is "playing" it. ;)

e p 08-30-2004 01:24 PM

When I go into Guitar Center, they never seem to have basses I like/would like to try. They either have outrageously priced Warwicks or crappy little Squiers and the like. Should I just ask the manager or someone when a bass I like would be in stock? Is that how it works or does the GC near you just have a good selection?

Foxfire 08-30-2004 01:33 PM

EP are you talking about the one on Halstead and Diversey?

e p 08-30-2004 01:39 PM

[QUOTE=Foxfire]EP are you talking about the one on Halstead and Diversey?[/QUOTE]


No. It's the one on Roosevelt in Villa Park.


What I'm trying to say is I would like to check out some basses but their selection doesn't have those basses(or at least at the moment).

I was just wondering what you guys do when you get your from GC/how to get mine.

Foxfire 08-30-2004 01:41 PM

You can ask them to order it specially for you. If it's a bass that people aren't asking for (say, an Ibanez SR506), they won't stock it, as no one wants it. Squiers are beginner basses and appeal to newbs; Warwicks appeal to some people who want to spend more money on basses (read: some).

Ask them to order it for you and to call you when they receive it, as you'd like to try it out.

e p 08-30-2004 01:44 PM

Ok thanks man.

Later guys I'm off to plant some shrubbery.

Foxfire 08-30-2004 01:44 PM

300 pound shrubbery? ;p

Have fun.

SporKsBaSSisT 08-30-2004 01:52 PM

Just on a side note:

Great job keepin up with the crap threads Wintermute.

Bass+Fingers+Amp=Groove 08-30-2004 01:54 PM

check out same ash near midway, they have a [i]different[/i] kind of music experience.
:p

the guitarcenter on halsted is rather... subpar.

Foxfire 08-30-2004 02:02 PM

Meh they have a used Warwick Thumb 4 there for 1200 USD...

Bass+Fingers+Amp=Groove 08-30-2004 02:06 PM

Then buy it then. :rolleyes:

Foxfire 08-30-2004 02:10 PM

It's not worth it unless it's fretless, duh.

PaulSimonon 08-30-2004 02:49 PM

[QUOTE=Foxfire]It's not worth it unless it's fretless, duh.[/QUOTE]
123.... they guy at the guitar shop where I spend most of my time said my Cort Artisian fretless (OF COURSE) "reminded him of a warwick" Not bad for 300$ eh?

Foxfire 08-30-2004 11:02 PM

WOW I can't believe this fell so far back!

Anyways...I'm looking at the Curbow websites and it makes me sad that a fretless 6-string Curbow would cost 725$. -_-

I think I might have to get one after my Conklin. Sorry BFAG :p

Bass+Fingers+Amp=Groove 08-30-2004 11:20 PM

heh, good :evil: SR506 is all for me. go get your fretless. :D

Foxfire 08-30-2004 11:35 PM

:p Though if I decide I want a fretted 6er, I'm grabbing a SR506. I wonder if Curbow'd do a 7-string fretless...

Bass+Fingers+Amp=Groove 08-30-2004 11:38 PM

fretted 6 and 7? :p whatever floats your boat. when does the conklin come?

Foxfire 08-30-2004 11:40 PM

The guy hasn't sent it out yet. -.- I want it before friday, but we shall see.

I can't wait, I can't wait. :D :D :D

I'm sure Leo would go "WTF is your problem, a[size=2]sshole[/size]????"

:p

Bass+Fingers+Amp=Groove 08-31-2004 12:09 AM
