That's a newbie, and with (but one) bass :o

Enjoyed it much, Paul. Many thanks.

Yes, but it isn't meant to be of use by guitarists. Don't touch it. Don't even look at it. :lol:

SHHHhhhhh! Don't give 'em any ideas! They might find out the secret!

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Last quick note re: Oregon so as not to derail the thread: Sleepy towns with bigger, busy cities not far off sound ideal to us! We're thinking we might make a trip out in mid-August. I will let you know! Would love to grab a coffee or meal or something! Sort of like a confluence extension! :D
Looks like they made it! Amy emailed me through RRF and said they're gonna be in town later today,so I'm gonna show them around the bustling metropolis of Brookings. I don't know where we might find vegetarian fare,though.....

Woody treated us like royalty and gave us every detail about what it's like to live on the Oregon coast! He told us all the places we needed to visit, took us to the VIP room at an awesome local pub for dinner, and treated us to delicious baked goods and espresso from the farmer's market for breakfast.

All I can say is – we have been all over the world and met tons of people, but bass players are without a doubt the most amazing breed of people on the planet!!! :D
