they mention him along with vai, portney and petrucci as alumni :thumb:

but its not like your there to play a million miles an hour, they want you to understand the music and the techniques of how to play, what you play is up to you

Left Shoe 10-31-2004 11:19 AM

thatd be one helluva band , portnoy vai and hamm

Wintermute 10-31-2004 11:30 AM

Hamm was doing well, he just chose not to complete the course.

Dude, my dad just asked me if I wanted to go to GC.

And we all know my parents hate me.

What could this be? :confused: :D

Wintermute 10-31-2004 11:34 AM

Interesting...

Report back!

Tryxx 10-31-2004 11:35 AM

Wintermute...I have a small favor to ask. I'm running the noob comp, and we're going to have lots of polls that need to be up. What do you propose we do to keep from litering the forums with them? Do you think you should close them so they die after they're done?

bottlerocket 10-31-2004 11:36 AM

Oh I will, we're not leaving yet, so I have time.

I hope they have the bass I want to try there. For some reason I'm dying to play a 'Vette again...

Haha whoa how ironic is that.

I was just playing Medal of Honor, and there was a guy who's screenname was
[FGM]Wintermute[LoA][BOA]

He kept killing himself. :p

Wintermute 10-31-2004 11:37 AM

Sure, just let me know when you want one closed and I'll close it.

My profile is crammed with ways to contact me.

That's the downside of stealing a name from a book...

Lol.

And alright, thank you very much.

:lol: :lol:

Well, at any rate, as of now I'm in a pickle:

My next bass additions are definitely going to be a new Music Man, a GK head, an Avatar cab, and updating my Mexi J bass (badass bridge and barts for PUPs).

But for the MM, I don't know if I should get the Ray 5 or the Sterling. I like the Ray 5's tone and I want a 5 string, but I don't like the Ray 5's body (the pickguard aspect of it makes it look so cheesy), and I like the sleekness of the Sterling. They've both got the same tone and everything, so I'm caught between looks and feel.

:confused: Any suggestions, comments, or ideas? Much appreciated.

On my Conklin GT, I've found I don't use the low B. It sounds...evil? I guess.

You said that almost exact thing in our IM :p

TherodoreFoxfire: the low B i don't use on my Conklin often cuz it soudns sorta...evil :-(

Wintermute 10-31-2004 11:43 AM

I use my low B a reasonable amount, because I've been playing Sergeant Baker a lot, and it's a lot easier than zooming down the fretboard

Foxfire 10-31-2004 11:44 AM

I'm still contributing.

:cool:

[QUOTE=Wintermute]I use my low B a reasonable amount, because I've been playing Sergeant Baker a lot, and it's a lot easier than zooming down the fretboard[/QUOTE]

So would you say Ray 5 or Sterling?

Anyone can answer this.

PaulSimonon 10-31-2004 11:47 AM

*Has no low B*

Wintermute 10-31-2004 11:48 AM

Having never played either, I refuse to venture an opinion.

bottlerocket 10-31-2004 11:48 AM

^ Respectable...

Anyone else?

Foxfire 10-31-2004 11:50 AM

At the current moment, I prefer 4 to 5, and even 7.

However, I plan to get a DWB35 one of these days. :cool:

PaulSimonon 10-31-2004 11:52 AM

I have been fancying fours more and more lately. I played a Cort Curbow 5, and immediately switched to an SRX500.

bottlerocket 10-31-2004 11:57 AM

I'm off to GC...later MX. :D
