Look at my Basses Here (Finally)

Topics about musical instruments other than guitar should go here. There's bound to be a Carter, LeRoi, or Yo-Yo Ma out there.

Because Vic does it :P

It's supposed to deaden the strings when you're tapping. If you drag the yarn/hair tie down to like the 4th or 5th fret before you start a tapping riff/solo, you don't get the open string tones when you let off the notes.

Sweet bass man...I wish I had one (the quantum, that is) :(

I don't really know anything about basses but I can say that Wildlife factfile owns. I have one myself from back in the day.

I don't play bass but they look nice, how do you like that acoustic ibanez bass, the bass player in my band just got one 2 months ago and he doesn't really like it, I forget why, just curious on your opinion :)

as far as acoustic basses go... it sucks ass. but in a pinch when you wanna randomly go to the beach and play guitar with your buddies around a bonfire, its fine, or somewhere where you can't plug in. otherwise, i don't play it.

what i need is the 900 dollar tacoma acoustic bass at my guitar center... that thing purrs.
