I guess I got VERY lucky.

[QUOTE=wardrobe malfunction]I think it's in Arlington heights. It's by Woodfield.[/QUOTE]

GAH what the hell, I went there and they said they didn't have any. :(

Guess I'll have to go sometime. :evil:

Well someone ordered one the night before and they got it from a different store.

Ohhh okay. Then that's understandable.

6-string basses = unpopular. FRETLESS 6-string basses = impossible to find at Guitar Center.

I'm not that pissed, though. When I graduate this year I'd like a Conklin GT-7, anyhow, and then see if I can't find a used Warwick Corvette 6er. *shrug*

I wish I lived in Chicago to talk to you guys :upset:

BFAG, IM me on AIM ASAP, I gotta explain something to you about what happened earlier tonight :lol:

I'm sure that if you lived in Chicago you'd go to the top school here and I'd know you through friends. ;)

At the moment my friend is the best bassist at the school, and there's only two other good bassists, and only one of the six bassists there (my friend included) plays a 5-string; there's nothing more? I'ma be the first 6+ player :D

He said there are kids there (the nerdy kids :p) that picked up bass to be cool.



Why the HELL would you pick bass if you wanted to be cool?



:upset:

All the bass players at my school suck.

;p

Later.

In my opinion, though, if you wanted to be cool you'd pick guitar. Seems like common sense to me.

Sure it true. : )

He he was really energetic. The Classic guitarist of Yonder is amazing at fingerpicking. But the Madolinist has got some crazy skill.

Hey Im bored and new to this site so I thought Id reply here. Ehhemm *clears throat* Im canadian, 16, and i play guitar for about 1 1/2 years n bass for like half a year. Is anyone into Paul Reed Smith guitars? Im looking into gettin one but I dunno what they sound/feel like, or how expensive they are.

Ohhh PRS. I totally forgot about them. *is bass surfing at the moment*

And your best bet is to try to find one and try it out.

Yeah I just play an Ibanez AX guitar and a ibanez bass now, but I wanna find something different and I was lookin around the net n found PRS. A lot of big bands use them and I hope theyre not toomuch $$.

I have two basses at the moment, a Jay Turser P-Copy and a Cort Curbow 4.

I LOVE THE CURBOW TO DEATH. Cost me $400 and is a wonderful bass.

no we are bassists so i dont think many of us are into PRS guitars. :lol:

santana plays one though, and i love santana...

I would like to thank you guys for being so cool and such helpful folks. The bass forum is a cool place indeed. Many a question has been answered here.
Thank you.




400th post.

How long you been playing foxfire? I wanna sell my bass cuz it just didnt stick with me like guitar but I cant find any buyers yet.

This is comming way too quick. I don't like it. :upset:

To BFAG:Oh Ive ridden that several times actually.

My bad... didnt know she was a girl. Is chicago actually a windy city?

I got my stuff all packed up to move into the dorms, its coming up. :D

Trains are so cool.

BFAG could be the super l33t train conductor that conducted a magical train that could fly, and break into Guitar Centers to get high end basses.

Sounds like a kid's show, eh?

Yes, but the name comes from the polititians of yesterday. wind bags. ;)

[QUOTE=Ibanez30]My bad... didnt know she was a girl. Is chicago actually a windy city?[/QUOTE]


The skyscraper and buildings sometimes creat a wind tunnel effect at times.

The Lake wind is very intense being that it can blow for miles with nothing to stop it.

Yes at times but it really depends.

[QUOTE=Ibanez30]My bad... didnt know she was a girl. Is chicago actually a windy city?[/QUOTE]

Only sometimes.

In the Winter it's warm. In the Spring it's hot. In the Summer it's hot. In the Fall it's warm. (At least last year ;p it's been sorta coldish this Summer *shrug*)It's windy all throughout the year, whenever it wants to be. ;) Weather tends to be irritatingly random, since we're right on Lake Michigan.

[QUOTE=Foxfire]Sounds like a kid's show, eh?[/QUOTE]

Only if theres a clown involved.

[QUOTE=LightRaven]Whats wrong with the girls were you live?



Where's Kandyman?!?! I want my bipolar friend!!! :(

Don't worry Heather. I am here now. I had a long day at work. That sucks that you have to move. Will you still be visiting the forums?

I've had to move way too many times to count. I was already in the double digits by the time I was seven. Biggest culture shock was moving from Utah to Southern California. Im gonna go back and read the rest of the thread now.

Hi Everyone.
