A Load Off My Shoulders

[RockinRayDuke]

Cameras are not my friends. Funny to see the much fatter version of myself though. I have a handful of pics that I'm proud of.

I have to call Adam tomorrow to see if they have the 3rd generation straps in yet

When you do get them in I'll take one. The one Lisa has there looks to be perfect for me.

What's up with that avatar Ray??? You look like a munchkin.

 

[RockinRayDuke]

How do I make it any bigger?

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

I dunno...go to The Hun maybe??

I think it's the same photo. He's pointing out the spot on the Bongo wherein the Dude DNA sample might be.

[RockinRayDuke]

That's it. I just don't know how to make a clear avatar out of it.

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

That's spot on pointing there Rayban.

Avatars are best when square Ray...optimum size is 80x80 pixels.

 

[Figjam]

Maybe someone could be nice and shrink it down to avatar size in photoshop for ya. I would but im on my brothers laptop at the moment, and he runs linux. No photoshop on here.


Steve,if you make it square,itll make him all squishy since the picture isnt square.

 

[RockinRayDuke]

I have Irfan View but don't know how to make it square.

Let me look for another pic.

 

[Figjam]

There ya go!

 

[Aussie Mark]

like on that black bird you're trading in

Ray, what's the story?

 

[RockinRayDuke]

As much as I enjoyed the T-Bird I enjoy the Bongo more. So it goes to Steve for a Stealth Bongo 4 banger, HS.

acrylic instruments are fun and have great sustain but they are a bit weighty. I need to shut up about heavy instruments now. I sound like I want to play a piece of rice paper.

No Light basses is where it's at, anything over 9 pounds doesn't come home Period, My light basses sound great too. DJ

 

[Dr Stankface]

Both of my basses are at 11 lbs. and sound great too.

I wouldn't mind a 9 lbs. SR5 though.

Heavy Basses sound great don't get me wrong, But there's just no need to have any instrument kill your shoulder. I have basses as light as 5 pounds that sound incredible, so we'll save all the heavy basses for the folks that still go to Golds .

 

[RockinRayDuke]

When ya get to be my age light basses are golden. A great padded strap like the one Lisa got are the best.

People who play heavy basses don't need to go to Golds, while people who only play light basses will continue to get sand kicked in their face at the beach.

well in 47 years Im yet to get sand in my Face, but when you Play 1959 and 1960 Fender P and Jazz Basses that weigh Nothing for 20 years and sound Incredible, don't tell me you have to play a 50 Pound bass to get tone.

Sorry it doesn't happen, Maybe in the Indonesia your considered a Man if your bass or guitar weighs 15 to 30 pounds, well they can keep sending them over there too.

 

[bovinehost]

I'll take an eight pound bass every day. (Wish I had more of them.)

And I shot a man in Wharton just to watch him die.

Wait, maybe that was a squirrel.

But still.
