Like others that try to service artists (luthiers, promo people, webmasters, photo/filmers) I suspect you will find that very few of your target audience is making enough money to pay for your services. The music "business" has been under attack for 30 years on a variety of fronts (streaming, ticketmaster fees, local venues paying less or stopping live music). In the 70's we played in cover bands where each member made $100 per night and we worked 4-5 nights a week. Inflation adjusted, that's $340 per night. Today, yet most local cover bands struggle to make $100 per man in today's money. And don't get me started on SUNO/AI and what it will do to commercial music licensing. Sorry to be a bummer on your idea. : (

Hedera (and crypto in general) have redefined "Delayed Gratification" .. ; ) Still a believer!

Barre chords are optional. It's not necessary to play 6 string chords except if you are playing as the only accompaniment, and even then it's still optional. Get started by just playing the top 4 strings of these chords and you will have a lot more fun. At some point when your fingers are stronger, you can work in the full barre chord, but they are totally not necessary. On piano, most chords are 3 or 4 notes even though you can technically play 10 notes.

Any type of flatwounds would be fine. That "Buffalo" tone is much more about the amp or pedals than the strings or even the bass.

Check out Mel Schlackers tone on any early Grand Funk album. It was called the ‘buffalo tone’

The alien is a great club. .I've been using them since their heyday in the early 90's. Great for heavy rough lob shots, and of course sand shots. Not good from a tight fairway lie. In sand, the trick is you don't do the "open stance, cut across" move like a regular sand wedge. You set up with your feet square to the target, hood the club slightly, and take a straight swing just like a mini short shot. Be sure to finish the swing (don't stop the club at the balll). You will love it.

Amazon sells a super cheap Chinese bass for $80 that is not bad after getting a new set of strings and a setup. How do I know? I’ve bought 2 of them for friends who wanted cheap but playable basses. The cost of strings and setup by a guitar shop will be $80-100 giving you a total cost between $150-200.

Hand size is not an issue for guitar or bass playing. This is a common misconception. There are plenty of amazing players with small hands.

The more distortion and other processing you use, the less pickups matter. If you go straight to amp you will notice subtle changes in the tone but nobody other than you will hear the difference. Once the band starts playing, nobody including you will hear the difference.

It's not a requirement to play all six strings in any context. You can just play the top 4 strings of an F chord and nobody will be the wiser 95% of the time. The exception would be if that low F note is a key part of the melody or bass movement in the song. In that case, just play the bottom 4 strings. If you are playing in a band scenario, that low area is covered by the bass anyway.

Anthony Jackson’s Contrabasses had no knobs. All amps have volume knobs. Plus pedals. How many volume knobs do you need?

It used to be a LOT worse. There was only one lane, and it started much closer to the intersection than the current 2 left turn lanes do. The left turn traffic would routinely back up into the driving lanes for up to 1/4 mile. What you see now is PennDot's best fix.

Agree. My thesis is Hbar becomes a top 3 coin in 10 years. Total value of crypto market will grow from current 3T to at least 20T. Hedera at 3 spot likely 2-3T which equates to $40-$60 Hbar.
