[QUOTE=ToolBox]No one answered how old he is...[/QUOTE]

Noone knows. His oldest amp is 17 years old, though, so he should be at least 25+.

Wintermute 04-24-2005 05:38 AM

Not necessarily. My oldest bass is somewhere betwen 9 and 14 years old, yet I've been playing for about two and a half years.

Thunder Fingers 04-24-2005 05:45 AM

Is this the guy with WAY to many strings? :p

It says on that mouse-over picture that he has OWNED the little Ibanez amp for 17 years.

Wintermute 04-24-2005 08:27 AM

Fair enough.

Yeah, what's up with all those strings! :confused:



















;)

Wintermute 04-24-2005 06:29 PM

Haha, welcome to the boards! :wave: :thumb:

Here's a question - is there a limit? Is there any point after which you would say there ARE too many strings?

Foxfire 04-24-2005 06:30 PM

Hey Jean. ;)

Just a quick question:
Any hope for getting another distributor for your stuff in the near future? I've yet to hear any Nuclear Rabbit.

:upset:

Radiobass81 04-24-2005 06:31 PM

I'm amazed.

It only took one post and two smileys for me to like the guy (as an MXer).

Useless post, but I have nothing to ask.

AlmightyPancake 04-24-2005 06:31 PM

"Jaco only needed four!" :lol:


Seriously though, your mastery of tapping and harmony absolutely leaves me speechless. At what point did you truly decide to take bass in that direction?

ridethelightning 04-24-2005 06:33 PM

hey jean! welcome to MX!


what got you into bass? where is the limit for amount of strings on a bass in your mind?

YDload 04-24-2005 06:39 PM

Who are your biggest influences, Jean?

(Yeah that's right, I snuck that question in first!)

eguitaranlead 04-24-2005 07:13 PM

hey jean my question is. how the "Joust" bass going, and can you put some pics up on mx here for us.

Jean Baudin 04-24-2005 07:16 PM

why set limits? :smash:

I'm fine with 11 for now. :naughty:

Sorry, I'm having fun with these new icons.

you know we had the whole new distributor thing rolling (it was the guys who handle buckethead's stuff) but we kinda stopped pursuing it once we lost our drummer. hopefully, we'll have something up soon. Our original distributor got bought out by a larger one and forget to include us with it. :mad:

there's should be mp3s up at [url]www.nuclearrabbit.com[/url] (and a video too I think) and I put a couple of songs on that myspace thing.

well, hey thanks. Useless post #2.

eguitaranlead 04-24-2005 07:22 PM

jean just a heads up you need to put all the http and stuff in order for a link to work on mx.

AlmightyPancake 04-24-2005 07:24 PM

It's funny, because Irish used to use that for his icon, so I have to keep reminding myself that's it's JB instead.

eguitaranlead 04-24-2005 07:24 PM

this link should work [url]http://www.nuclearrabbit.com/[/url]

when I started playing I was practicing 6 hours a day (more in the summer time) so I just went for it. I don't feel as if I made any decision in any direction - I just dig playing bass and wanted to get better. As far as mastering tapping or harmony - I have a long way to go, but thanks for the props.

PaulSimonon 04-24-2005 07:32 PM

I just was talking about you while playing PacMan today...

[QUOTE=ridethelightning]hey jean! welcome to MX!


what got you into bass? where is the limit for amount of strings on a bass in your mind?[/QUOTE]

I wanted to sing, but I sucked. my mom wouldn't let me have a drumset (too noise-y, too expensive) and my fingers were too big for guitar and I had/have a twisted ring finger so I couldn't make chords (at least on a tiny guitar neck). So I played bass. My first observation after my first day playing bass was "where are all the notes?" (you guys need a smiley with rocks being thrown at it - insert here). I soon fell in love with the bass and lived happily ever after. Then I added more strings and internet people scorned me. The End.

I'm okay w/ 11 for now.

BassVirtuoso 04-24-2005 07:40 PM

We were just wondering how old you were, since none of use could find it. And will you post some more or is this a one time thing?

By the way I'm the guy from Myspace who messages you.

tenorbass 04-24-2005 07:47 PM

Hey Jean, I really dig you stuff. i was wondering if you have a secret to tapping or bass. also how do you practice, right now i am using the metronome alot. also, why do have your basses made like old school games did you always like them or some thing i think they look great and it was a good idea. Also what are you doing now adays. So here is to you Jean :chug: . thanks for your time brother. keep up the great work.
