My Carl Thompson Thread.

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

he only had about 6 or 7 basses in his shop, and most were quite incomplete.

Never played one, but i like em. For some reason i always think they're graphites, like moduli, but they're not. If i could get a fretless 6 buzz, i'd take it in a heartbeat.

would my ibanez be able to stand ADGC tuning, or should i get some lighter strings.

EDIT-

i actualy might have enough to do

Code: Select all

tuned           A      D     G     C
gauge         .085   .065  .065  .045
norm tuned      A      D     D     G
will that work?
