hey Jean nice to hear you again my brother. how long will you be on this tv show? when its put up on your site will it be all of what you did on the show? Do you sing alot in Nuclear Rabbit? is it hard to sing when you play? When your tapping do you use all fingers on the left and right hands or does the pinky get left out? thanks for your time man.

sorry i forgot 2 things. who is your fav guitar player? do you like buckethead? i think you and him should do a cd that would be awsome.

I'll probably just be on for a few minutes - I should be able to put a quicktime of the whole thing up. I usually just sing back up in NR. But I do sing lead on a couple of songs (supermarket, crane to the head, etc.) - It's not hard to sing and play because I rehearsed/practiced it enough times. I use all of my fingers when I tap and even both thumbs (the left thumb for long stretches or weird chords). :thumb:

[QUOTE=Jean Baudin]Hey tryxx - the only guys that make 'em (that I know of) are Modulus and Zon... and they both stop at 6-strings. Apparently, you have to have a mold to make a neck - so I think custom one-off would be too expensive.

I've played Michael's hyperbass and it was a smooth neck and very easy to play.[/QUOTE]

There's a Modulus 7 string on ebay right now... Not quite 9, but it's better than 6! *Is happy with his Modulus Quantum 6*

favorite guitarist: jason becker, who I was fortunate to take a couple of lessons from and jam with. Shawn Lane, Joe Pass and Pat Metheny are other favorites.

Yeah, I like Buckethead. Nuclear Rabbit played shows with the Deli Creeps (the band he was in) and he and I talked about shredder guitarists - seeing as we both took lessons from them (he had studied with Paul Gilbert). Buckethead told me if made a movie he'd make me one of the villians. He would be fun to jam with... haven't talked to him in years though.

Excellent taste, good sir!

Ahh, hmm. Thought the Joust was a 9.

With the wood bridge... is it like some luthiers crazy adjustabel bridges made of wood, or a single saddle thing? If single... does that mean a fretless 11?

Jean,

I read that on your influences you rate some of the great film composers near the top of the list. I was just wondering if there are any specific films you watch over and over again just for the film score. I'm working on one myself at the moment but am unsure where to look as a guideline of sorts.

Also, how do you rate Stanley Clarkes soundtracks? I know he's done the "Transporter" and "Romeo Must Die" along with a handful of others. Being that he's a bassist first and composer second, I was just curious as to what you think of his film stuff.

Cheers
CK

it's funny, I've got just enough cash lying around for that bass
hmmm

That thing is teh secks! It doesn't matter than i can't play fretless or 7-strings does it? :confused:

i have a question for anyone that can answer me, why are there 9 string basses? am i the only one on the planet that thinks there flat out ugly, i think anything past 5 strings (possibly 6) is pointless and it just looks really bad.... just my opinion

There are 9 strings so you can use them. More sounds, more creativity. It's just like having effect pedals, or a different technique, it just adds to what you can do. Some are ugly, granted, but they are useful if you know how to use them.

Please NoOsh, search for my thread "Why More Than Four?" and read the enclosed article written by Mr. Stew McKenzie. Great piece, explaisn it perfectly.

the man likes shawn lane and keith jarrett! thats awesome, shawn lane's my favorite guitarist and keith jarrett's my second favorite pianist after ahmad jamal

kind of a bizzare question but...

where do you get your strings for things above 6 stringers...i would imagine they are pretty hard to come by

At least I found someone who knows Jason Becker, who to me if he didn't have that illness would still be the best guitarist in history. Jean, in your opinion isn't he at least one of the best?

A friend of mine is utterly utterly convinced that he IS Paul Gilbert.

Don't suppose he had his mask off backstage? :)

I'm convinced Buckethead is actually a woman.

Buckethead=Brian Carroll

Stop it with the buckethead stuff now, he's not a woman, or paul gilbert, or steve vai, or whatever your crazy minds may come up with :p

edit:more info (in portuguese, I think?) [URL=http://www.gitaris.com/Buckethead.p]here[/URL]

Why do you post a portuguese link in an english forum???


Edit: Just figuered it out

[QUOTE=hazletbassist89]Hey Jean, how's it hangin'?

Anyway, not sure if this has been asked yet.

Have you ever considered getting a Chapman Stick, or something similar? It seems like something like that would be right up your alley![/QUOTE]

It's been asked...

Hey jean man its tenor again i know, i have been listening to supermarket alot lately. Awsome song man. can you explian the slap pattern you do in it? like slap pop mute etc...... thanks bro

[QUOTE]edit:more info (in portuguese, I think?) here[/QUOTE]

WTF?? that isn't portuguese , it's indonesian... I was getting all excited...

since it's been 4 months since jean baudin, shouldn't we be able to say "and you thought ask-a-pro was over! (Now you're right)" ?

[QUOTE=SWR410]since it's been 4 months since jean baudin, shouldn't we be able to say "and you thought ask-a-pro was over! (Now you're right)" ?[/QUOTE]
Nope, because he still comes here.

I'm Portuguese, and that sir... is not Portuguese. And this talk of Portuguese is reminding me of Family Guy....... hm.......




-Mike

I apologize for the double post but. As a matter of fact, I live in a town right by where Buckethead came from. His father coaches Highschool Football at Damien, an all-boys private school in his hometown of Claremont as I recall. I could be totally wrong.... except for the Claremont part. Interesting tidbits of information.
