[QUOTE=PaulSimonon]I want a nice bass before the end of the summer, though.[/QUOTE]
Yeah... I know what you mean. If you do get a job, buy as much awesome gear as you can..... don't get crappy stuff either.... save up and get the best stuff you can. Get your dream bass and a $2000 stack if you're sure you want to stick with it. I can't tell you how often I wish I'd bought a bigger amp when I was in High School and didn't have to pay bills and rent.

Spaceman Spiff 02-12-2005 01:28 AM

I'll finally have my new bass in about 3 weeks time.
Waiting sucks the big one.

It'll be worth the wait when my sexual SR506 arrives.

[QUOTE=Spaceman Spiff]By the way, I just wrote that Spaceman Spiff adventure.



I often write random little things like that when up late/early in the morning.[/QUOTE]
I've got every Calvin and Hobbes comic ever run on my hard drive. It's a beautiful thing, I tell you.

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 01:29 AM

I only need to make 1,000$ or so altogether.... If I get the 4x8 I'll have my dream stack for only 550$!

Spaceman Spiff 02-12-2005 01:30 AM

The comics are way cooler when you have the books, like I do. :cool:

Spaceman Spiff 02-12-2005 01:31 AM

I'm gonna need a job before I can afford anymore gear, and I really need an amp.

Saitoku 02-12-2005 01:32 AM

Cool. The stack I eventually want to get is a Avatar 2x10 and 1x15... I'm not sure what amp... My dream bass.... well, I think you've probably seen that DHuff that I adore...

If not:

Oh god I accidentally went into The Pit, someone, get me to a decontamination shower.

*Shudders*.

I used to have a ton of the books, but they were all ruined by water.... :upset:

That really sucks. :upset:
I hate when water ruins stuff.

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 01:35 AM

Darrin seems to be pretty cool, judging by his TB posts.

Yeah, those guys in the pit can be real bastards....

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 01:36 AM

Gaslight, it never washes off.

Saitoku 02-12-2005 01:37 AM

[QUOTE=PaulSimonon]Darrin seems to be pretty cool, judging by his TB posts.[/QUOTE]
I've emailed him a few times. He does seem pretty cool, but not quite cool enough to make me a replica of that bass for $600. ;)

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 01:37 AM

Haha! I be he could do it with plywood and toothpaste though.

Saitoku 02-12-2005 01:38 AM

Don't forget my rubber band strings.


(Woo! 2,500 posts!)

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 01:39 AM

Yay Saitoku!!

Saitoku 02-12-2005 01:43 AM

I noticed about a month ago that there's a guy on talkbass that has the same avatar as I have here except his is colorized.

Well if water can't get that layer of tainted skin off...

Try the turpentine.

“Must……make… clean…”

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 01:48 AM

Yeah. I like the black and white myself.

Saitoku 02-12-2005 01:52 AM

Yeah, me too.

Floyd Pepper is the man.

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 01:56 AM

Does anyone have any suggestions basswise for me now that JP has.... retired....?

gaslight 02-12-2005 01:56 AM

Anyway guys I'll see you later, I'm actually leaving my house :eek:.

To go a party :eek:.

Crapdragoon 02-12-2005 01:56 AM

Fantastic

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 01:57 AM

A party?!

Morning guys. Whats going on.

Its 8AM and I can't be bothered to sleep anymore.

Crapdragoon 02-12-2005 02:01 AM

not diggin the pickguard.

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 02:03 AM

I like it. It kinda ties the whole bass together between classic and modern stuff.

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 02:03 AM

I guess I have a thing for ugly pickgaurds... the one on teh Peavey is pretty ugly.

Saitoku 02-12-2005 02:04 AM

I'm a bigger fan of natural woods, but that's me. If you dig the orange, I'd say go for it.

Don't make a choice before you play a G&L L-2000, though.


Hey, Crapdragoon.

Hey, Paul.

How are you guys?

PaulR 02-12-2005 02:06 AM

I'm a little bored. I have to go to my Grandads later, and spend the whole day in Putney, the most boring part of London.

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 02:07 AM

Yeah, I normally like natural stuff, but orange seems to catch my eye. So does the array of names on that bass... Mike Lull, Modulus, Alembic, and Ken Smith.....

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 02:09 AM

This bass looked intriguing as well...

PaulR 02-12-2005 02:10 AM

I don't like the body shape on that one, and the pickguard is kinda fugly.

Saitoku 02-12-2005 02:11 AM

[QUOTE=PaulR]I'm a little bored. I have to go to my Grandads later, and spend the whole day in Putney, the most boring part of London.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, but you'll still be in London... I'm stuck in Farmington, Maine.

PaulSimonon 02-12-2005 02:11 AM

As well as this one... [img]http://www.bassnw.com/images/Used%20Basses/Lakland%20Skyline%20Jerry%20Scheff%204%20LPB%20Close.jpg[/img]

THAT bass look sweet. I like that one much more than the first one.
