[QUOTE=sr800bkBassist;13413029]i think i have. are they kinda poppy? kinda funky too (not funk, but funky)? and they use an acoustic guitar? i've only heard one song.[/QUOTE]

Yeah. A bizarre combination of Jamiroquai, Postal Service-ish synthy/poppy songs, and Strokes guitars.

There's a flaw in your sentence.

The word "sexy."

Haha. You know it's true.

Cool, it looked like a good bass. How much did you get it for?

I will agree that they play amazing and that they sound amazing... but I just can't concede to the point that they're attractive.

[QUOTE=Pluperfect_Arson;13413003]I have tried to drink it on multiple occasions in the hopes that it would, magically, taste better, but that never happened, so I don't even look at it anymore.

Being extremely parched and having only that water in the room is horrid. :([/QUOTE]

yeah I just grabbed it because it was in the fridge and all the large glasses are in my room.

Akira 10-09-2006 07:41 PM

I love the look.
If they made a Bong sixer, oh lord.

I heard rumours on TB that there's a Bongo 6er in development for 2007.

If that is true, I would be so happy.

Has anybody checked the EB forums? I'll check now.

Yeah... it probably isn't.

And it still wouldn't make them any more attractive.

Oh vector imaging...

I'd rather have a different 6er.

BenJammin 10-09-2006 07:52 PM

oshi

HELLonWHEELS 10-09-2006 07:53 PM

I deserve some rep for that. I don't think they look that great. I wonder how it would feel

Akira 10-09-2006 07:55 PM

Jesus I am excited. If this is true.
Of course for the money that it would cost I could probably almost get a Chapman Stick.
Decisions, decisions.

[QUOTE=HELLonWHEELS;13413135]I deserve some rep for that. I don't think they look that great. I wonder how it would feel[/QUOTE]

They don't look great with 4 or 5 strings. Why would they look good with 6? :p

PietroCrespi 10-09-2006 07:56 PM

How much do sticks run?

HELLonWHEELS 10-09-2006 07:56 PM

I never said they look great as a 4 or 5 although that dargie delight bongo look pretty good

they will probably get an even uglier pick guard for it to! i mean the pickguard on the 4 is cool, but the 5 is just weird, so the 6 is probably going to curl up and wrap around the strings

Akira 10-09-2006 07:58 PM

[QUOTE=GoldfingerSpokesman;13413156]How much do sticks run?[/QUOTE]

A new 10 string (classic size) runs $1900 with the most basic pickup. The biggest probablem with buying a Stick is that Emmett Chapman makes them by hand in batches, so you could easily not see your Stick for a year after you order it.

Probably. I hate the 5 string pickgaurd.

PietroCrespi 10-09-2006 07:59 PM

$1900, holy crap.

i just jammed with my band tonight, and i had a jam of inspiration, it was wonderful

The Brad 10-09-2006 08:03 PM

He doesn't make them by hand, he's just too busy playing warcraft to turn on the machine.

Akira 10-09-2006 08:03 PM

[QUOTE=GoldfingerSpokesman;13413180]$1900, holy crap.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, they are expensive. From what I hear they are worth it, they seem very high-quality. When you consider they are custom instruments, the price doesn't seem so bad. The problem is that it's not like you can just go to GC and try one out.

I've always wondered why I've never actually seen one while I've seen like tons of people who are in love with them, but I guess the price explains that.
