It's confusing because she wrote one set of books, and then kind of started writing "fill-ins" if you will and sticking those left and right.

[QUOTE=Spaceman Spiff;13558693]Just dented my bass. :lol:

It slipped from my hand and hit a metal corner on my computer desk. This has happened once before on the same corner. This one is bigger and deeper than the other.

Whoops![/QUOTE]

Just gives it more mojo.

Yeah, I didn't read anything but the 'core' books because everything else she does sucks.

My favorite damage is all the paint chips below the C string from my double thumbing and popping and stuff. At least those are there because of my playing, and not my clumsiness.

I don't understand how people get those.

I slap and pop the hell out of my bass and have no such marks.

I realized the other day how beat up my musician (the bass in the video) really is. Has a lot more paint chips in it than I noticed when I bought it, but I don't think that any of them are from me, as I am really careful with it. The clear coat on the neck is almost all warn off as well. It must have been a heavy player before I got it.

We must be some sort of super-breed of bass players, Phil.

Do you slap through the string? Or do you bounce? I find that I hit the body more when I slap through the string (which is all that I do now).

No, Phil's bass is an armored tank.

definitley not, it is made of hardwood, but itll take a dent just as bad as an ibanez

[QUOTE=BenJammin;13558777]I slap through.[/QUOTE]

I worked the hitting the body out of my slapping because it was starting to hurt my fingers. I sometimes still do it when I get aggressive with slap.

My Ibanez has falling apart. I still have a hole in the back where I dropped my capo from like...2 feet up. A literal hole...

I need to go hit up New Orleans and Baton Rouge in the next few weeks and go to all the bass shops.

I think the paint chips are there from my finger nails. Occasionally a nail will catch the bass the right way and make a little chip in it.

You hit the body when you slap?

That doesn't sound right at all.

I wish I had an acoustic bass so I could do body thumps.

[QUOTE=Spaceman Spiff;13558838]You hit the body when you slap?

It happened when I first switched to slapping through the string. It was a combination of holding my fingers wrong and my slapping motion. I would slap through the A string and my popping finger would slip down too far and hit the body (only when popping the G string). Now it slips nicely under the desired string.

I've gotta find a more cost-effective way of doing this.

Colour cartridge = $35

I'll be in a perpetual state of not making money.

That's because he's modest as hell. I doubt there are many adult bassists who can tap like him, much less many kids his age. I think a little part of me dies every time I watch his version of the Maple Leaf Rag. There are better bassists, but I absolutely love how he plays.

Your selling music to make money? :amaze: SELLOUT!

Seriously though, a printing shop will be cheaper in the long run.

Photocopying.
