Yeah, 5MP isn't enough for me. I like huge resolutions so that I can edit and crop without having to sacrifice image quality. My new camera shoots at 4416x3312. :lol:

Epidemechanical 07-13-2009 03:01 PM

ben, that is ridiculous.

I would love to have a camera capable at shooting good quality photos at 2000x1750 so that I can shrink them and work with them as well.

I'll probably buy a now Canon this fall (Black Friday, maybe?) that has 10.0MP or so because it will be dirt cheap and it's all I'll need.

I just bought a Nikon Coolpix package. lawl Should be fun, though.

It's one of the few point and shoots I've seen with 7x optical, so I was drawn.

gaslight 07-13-2009 11:10 PM

Haha, fishbulb, nice, nice..

m-dirnt_fan101 07-14-2009 08:56 AM

awesome, I do to...we should like totally start some kind of forum for bass players:p

FunkMetalBass 07-14-2009 08:58 AM

Hey, I ate bass last night. Can I join your forums?

PaulSimonon 07-14-2009 09:41 AM

No.

gaslight 07-14-2009 09:47 AM

I dunno, I can't see a bass forum standing the test of time.

You added me to Facebook the other day, didn't you?

gaslight 07-14-2009 12:30 PM

Gonna get some new strings and a new single-instrument stand tomorrow. New strap too if I spoil myself.

FunkMetalBass 07-14-2009 12:31 PM

My next tat will read:
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=5][B]Όλα είναι αριθμός[/B][/SIZE][/FONT]

It's Greek for "All is number" because Pythagoras was the man.

BenJammin 07-14-2009 12:40 PM

I'm considering buying a 4 string to have as a beater/live bass/something I can really wail on. There's a kooky Danelectro on TB that I'm considering, but I need to sell some stuff first.

Why not just buy my Aria 6 and use it as a beater? It's on sale for the low low price of $425 shipped....

I'll also be selling my '96 Fender MIM J for $300-ish if you really wanted to go in the 4-string direction...

BenJammin 07-14-2009 01:07 PM

Because I want a 4 and not a 6. I have to 6's. They're not what I want to rock out for an hour on stage with. They're great for recording and solo work, and quiet, acoustic gigs, but I want something a little different for doing H&S live.

I'd consider the J, but I'm more looking for a P. And the Danelectro has a great quirky look to it.

BenJammin 07-14-2009 01:23 PM

This album = awesome.

Just got it earlier today, and am just finishing my first listen-through. I can see why it won so much critical acclaim.

I hope you're right, because the last Plant album that I bought blew more *** than Big Gay Al, Mr. Garrison, and Mr. Slave dressed in Richard Simmons costumes at the Gay Pride Festival.

A single picture of your face
Is hanging on my wall.
It reminds me that possibly,
Maybe I've got it all


I hate when I come up with partial lyrics and can't figure out anything other lyrics or music to work with it.

I'm totally going to do this too. I don't know if I'll use it ever, but I really want a good 4 string to dick about on as well as my 7s. Though I wail on all my basses anyway, so it won't specifically be for that.

What are you selling?

Epidemechanical 07-14-2009 10:02 PM

danelectros are awesome.

Jimbobntnr 07-14-2009 10:15 PM

I bought a 63 baritone a few months ago.
loved it.

Jody LeCompte 07-14-2009 10:31 PM

Apparently, my job does random drug testing now.

Wtf...

I heard a funny story about that a while ago.

Some guy knew he was getting pulled up so convinced his brother to piss in a little cup and smuggled it in. In he goes, they give him a little sample jar, he goes into the room and pours the clean piss in, comes back out and the guy says "alright, now just head up and around the corner for the drug test."

Pwnd.

Jody LeCompte 07-14-2009 10:55 PM

They drug test in store, they're too cheap to send it off.

I just think it's obsurd. I guess they don't realize that only potheads work in pizza joints and they're going to lose everybody.

gaslight 07-14-2009 10:57 PM

Yeah that's a bit strange I think. Like, if your job is to operate heavy machinery, you can't be doing it high, but if you're just making pizzas, what's the worst that can happen?

funkyhoney 07-14-2009 11:13 PM

Some of my co-workers get high on lunch break. No one can tell in a bottle-shop.
