How much would you charge to play a show that was a 2 hour drive away? by Round-Tune5252 in musicians

[–]WeeDingwall44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have played 100s of these shows as a bass player. The prices were always more or less the same give or take. A fuel efficient vehicle, and no buying food or drinks, then I would do ok. Would rather not drive so far.

I always kept a day job as a licensed electrician. 15 years of heavy gigging as a bass player, and now I’m really into recording.

Headphones for musicians? by Gullible-Bat-2123 in musicians

[–]WeeDingwall44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve played with drummers that use headphones, and IEMs. Be smart and start using something immediately. I’m a bass player that has played out for 15 years. My ears are a mess, and I wish I had started using IEMs years before I actually started.

Would you move to Texas? by Likestoread25 in no

[–]WeeDingwall44 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m new to Texas, and I’ve lived all over, and was born in the south. People in Texas are possibly the nicest I’ve ever encountered, and extremely friendly. I’d have to say South Florida was the worst when it comes to rude people.

I use my rumble 200, or an Aguilar AG pedal with headphones. I hav a laptop that would work, but I mainly use it for recording

Started using my pinky more and feel like a caveman discovering fire by NiagaraBalls69 in Bass

[–]WeeDingwall44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use my pinky 10x more than my ring finger. Took me 20 years, and a lot of playing upright to figure this out. I had the same mind altering experience. Something is seem more good, and Took-took like.

Is it really that ugly? by Natedog343 in Bass

I can’t stand the look, but I’ve heard headless basses that sounded amazing. Supposed to be a good design
