i hope you're not taking it the wrong way ... i like this forum..it's great for shortscale and geetar fx matters.. hell, some of the people here play guitar/bass/drums/keys and whatnot so they prolly post in several forums too for different matters..i'm just trying to find a nice bass forum where i can read some interesting stuff about old/new gear, stores, tips and things like that.
cheers.

I am not being a dick here--which basses are the ugly ones? The modern Ibanez, etc? I thought Pedullas were the shit. I like Fenders of course, although if I were playing, I might try an upright, archtop, or something with BIG FAT FUCKING HBs. Some of the only bass players that have ever made me stand bolt upright--because of a distinctive style--played for the Stranglers, the Attractions, Violent Femmes, and Mike Watt. The Stanglers had the most distorted bass mixed way up into the songs. Oh hell yeah.

I sold my Jazz bass this year. I had wanted to learn it because I feel that different instruments speak to us in their own way. I mean, they do have different voices and parts within the context of making music, right? I also find that playing a new instrument gets me out of ruts and expands my repertoire. Uh, but who has time for all that? I will have to stick to guitar and mandolin since I already know them.

I hope you find what you're after. I am only on this and Reranch. I started there because of all the refinishing info. I have learned so fucking much this year. Teh intranetz is a marvel.
