Actually, it was the neck pitched forward that changed the angle for my wrist, stressing it.
Relax on here. I know what you mean about fitting in. Nobody's perfect. I hope your cat is going to be ok. I had some older dog issues a few months ago. You're not bringing anyone down. You're OK man. :D

I remember trying the Gibson Signature Krist Novoselic RD Bass last year when it came out,
I found it uncomfortable to play......I remember saying to myself,..... I'll take a Fender any day over this ..

Hi James. I tried one also. The same thing for me about not feeling comfortable playing it. I thought the sound was ok, but not enough to go with it because it was a long scale Gibson.

The neck had an odd thick feel to it,.....it's not exactly a fast playing neck,..& this is coming from a guy who owns a Steve Harris P-Bass with a chunky neck yet I find it comfy to play ......same thing goes for The Sting P-bass..it has a chunky neck yet nice playing.. :) IMO

Another new Bass for Glenn!

It must be time to change the air conditioning filters in my house. Since he seems to get a new one every four weeks, he is a great reminder to change the filters. If he'd buy a new amp every six months, I could easily remember to change the batteries in my smoke detectors.

:mrgreen: :mrgreen:

It's probably time to change the box of baking soda in the refrigerator too. Hey Mark buddy, what's up man.

The Precision worked well toward the 4003.

Can you send me a bass so I can change my furnace filters and baking soda? An amp would be a good reminder to change my oil- can you send one of those too? Thanks man. :D
