just got the action lowered reallly low , on my corvette

gaslight 10-23-2004 12:25 PM

I'm thinking of having the action set really low on my Ibanez SR500 when it comes in.

So my other basses have a high action and I will practice on them, so when it comes time to play the SR500 my fingers will find it must easier.

So I just went to Best Buy. I said to myself, "Ted, you spend way too much on the computer."

So I picked up Star Ocean for PS2. :cool:

[QUOTE=ShelBel]Greetings all! Lucky me, I'm working today, and I've had one- yes, one- hour of sleep due to the fact that hubby and I hung out with our friends' band last night. Had a blast, got drunk, got a little bit sad when the drummer told us he's leaving in a couple months, but still had fun overall.

Anyone else go out last night?[/QUOTE]


...out?

...but... then... how would I check the forums...?

Surely though you will need practice on a low action bass to ensure you don't get fret buzz and things? High action is harder to play, but it's a lot more forgiving.

Foxfire 10-23-2004 12:28 PM

I never beat the Star Ocean for PSX. :upset:

I've really gotten behind on my video gaming.

FUNKNBASS 10-23-2004 12:29 PM

I'm waiting for GTA: SA to come out.

I figure I would get used to the low action during the period of excitement when I get the new one?

I guess I'd have to see.

Left Shoe 10-23-2004 12:30 PM

my action is currently 2/32 of an inch

ridethelightning 10-23-2004 12:32 PM

GTA:SA looks soo good i cant wait for it

FUNKNBASS 10-23-2004 12:32 PM

Very nice.

When?

FUNKNBASS 10-23-2004 12:52 PM

Today, probly in an hour or so, whenever i decide to get up and go down to the guitar shop down the street.

Wintermute 10-23-2004 12:53 PM

Erm?

I think if I was going out to get a new bass, especially as good a one as that I wouldn't be sat around online, there'd be a hole in the door.

FUNKNBASS 10-23-2004 12:55 PM

My guitarist is at the supermarket with my car. He called and said he'd be back soon.

e p 10-23-2004 12:55 PM

That's great Funk.

I wish I could blow a grand or so on a whim.

Pictures when you get it
