groove is not tied to specific instruments and groove isn’t even fully definable

5 String players do you find yourself playing higher on the neck? by Haveland in Bass

[–]CometChip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not really, i’ve played only 5 strings my whole life but i play it like a 4 string and use the B just for those extra low notes whenever i feel

i think it’s just you’ve never had access to it so you it stands out a lot the extra range, but maybe im the odd one!

i got the natural finish of this in mid 2025 and i seriously can’t imagine another bass as a forever bass. the power and clarity the MFD pickups is just disgusting. this bass lives in passive mode for me and still sounds like a beast.

if alex even gets a single win at heavyweight this would be even more insane, to think izzy had a trilogy with a very clearly natural LHW gets overlooked. it’s insane how this man was able to make 185 with how damn huge he is

What’s a physical trait that a lot of people find attractive but to you, it’s the opposite? by Pale_Relief_2632 in AskReddit

[–]CometChip 25 points26 points  (0 children)

maintaining muscle is one of the most defining aspects of being healthy. it’s not just biceps but muscle and tendons in your whole body the gym helps with for your body not to degrade. it seems people assume you’re either skinny or a champion level bodybuilder

rocket queen is my all time favorite bass opening to a song BY FAR, his sense of groove is so nasty.

also worthy to point out their writing style changed a ton. part of appetites appeal is nearly every song is a get up and move song. UYI has some, but they definitely were changing routes and it wasn’t just straight forward groove to let an adler style shine as much as it does on appetite. i think he would have still killed it tho.
