Re: This pick is insane, but it works

Re: Resolutions for 2019?

<t>I've just (as of today) started trying acoustic while standing. Based on that attempt I see it will be some amount of time before I'm ready to do it while performing. :huh: <br/> <br/> Turns out, at least for me, I can "cheat" while sitting and watch where my fretting fingers go. When standing th...

Re: Are there any bass teachers in TG's future?

<t>So, the last post on this thread was not quite three years ago...but forgive me the early inquiry? :silly: <br/> <br/> I'm thinking the economics and logistics of this concept didn't gel sufficiently for it to happen; fair estimation?<br/> <br/> I've finally begun trying to learn to play mine and...
