[QUOTE=thelowsoundofbass;13596200]So I need a way to get better grip on my pics. I love the way that the pics that I have feel, but they have no grip on the, they are smooth. Sweaty hands + smooth pic = lots of dropped pics.

Just get a knife and score cross hatches into them.

And i think you can buy dunlop picks with a special grip thing on them...

[QUOTE=Thonk;13596204]I'm not really fond of Modest Mouse. I dig Minus the Bear though.[/QUOTE]
I get music... then i just... stockpile it :/ Then it just sits around untill i can be bothered listening to it.

Get a little knife, razor blade even, and make a pistol grip (criss crossed lines) pattern on the part where your fingers touch the pick.

I think the bassist from SOAD does that.. I tried it once and it worked pretty good.

Edit: beaten. :p

Beat! Plus my explantion was better than 'criss crossed lines'. God knows what couldve happend if hed tried that.

Too bad picks are for failed guitarists.

Anyone know the study of skull sizes as a science? The nazis used it to prove "racial superiority"?

Nevermind, I found it. Eugenics.

Just picks?

Bass is for failed guitarists, first and foremost.

Nope. Just picks.

Bass is for failed musicians. That's why it's meant to stay in the background where it can't be heard.

Well, after killing it with my (joking) negativity, I think I'll head off to bed.

I'll leave you with this message: Someone's got to do the culling of the fold.


If it doesn't make sense, find a way for it to make sense... and make it make sense in the worst way possible. Only then shall you find the true meaning.


:lol: <-- And imagine he's evil. It's an evil laugh. That's me... evily laughing.

Are mental and nervous breakdowns are the same?
Nevermind Wikipedia says YES!

wahahhaaaaaaa


major life desicion haaaaaaahaaaaaaa.....I hate lame threads and the "General Discussion" forum.

Does any one have any programs that allow me to record my bass onto my computer? I have the USB attachment, I just need a program to actually record it.

Edit: omg, theres a thread that has the same question right below this. :lol:

Audacity is free.

I'm downloading Audition that Ben put up.

I downloaded it once....if it comes with a key or some number please post if here. It worked for 30 days .:(

The one that Ben uploaded comes with a key generator.

Worked fine for me.

hey guys

PHOENIX DOWN[I]!![/I]

renegade was awesome

renegade is a first person shooter right?

[QUOTE=lemoley;13597039]renegade is a first person shooter right?[/QUOTE]

Likewise. ^_^

I really like Generals, the game is just so nicely balanced IMO. But I don't play against people often, and when I do, they're not the l337 hXc rush types. They play like gentlemen. :D The missions are too easy though... This coming from a guy who couldn't beat a Brutal mano-a-mano until today.

The new game is going to be fcking amazing.

Also, I am craving Tiberian Sun now.

well im glad you like it then ;)

anyway guys im outter her, see ya

hey, its alive
-sixner

...and im back

Anyone?

lol @ the bass lod being dead, always.

Hey guys, what would be a nice P/J configuration (around Seymour Duncan price ranges) for Justin Chancellor and Juan Alderete tones? My bassist friend is quite into Tool and TMV. I'm thinking a Quarter Pounder P and some form of an alnico-magnet J Stack would do him good. Opinions?

Sitting in class... though this one is ending in a couple minutes. Then I have English, which is pretty lame.

Hi guys!! I'm back! :)

yo, casual.
