    A Bass Tip

    I'll have to try that! I wrapped a big rubber band around the very tip of the neck - - because the "vibrational" sounded like it was coming from right there ... basically my biggest problem is my E string (on my upright) ... but I do get some buzz from my Fender electric, too.

    Acoustic Bass - In Its Many Forms

    I have a half-size upright (I'm a 5'1" chick and can't imagine using a three-quarter). My dad was a wholesaler but had gotten out of the business, however, he had a friend still in the business - - so the guy sold it to us at wholesale, minus a couple trade-ins. It seems like it cost $600...

    Oh wait - - I just thought of a very important one ... *laughs* ... Paul McCartney! Where would we all be, were it not for the fab four?

    I can respect those ... I've not fallen-in-love-with any rock bassists as of yet, but I notice that when I love a song, it's often because of the bass line. Weird, I know. My son think that .. is it Flea? ... is awesome. I can't get past tRHCP's lead singer's voice to hear anything else.

    So I'll start one: Who is your favorite bassist? I'm into jazz so bear with me. I like Ray Brown and John Clayton for starters.
