    [quote]Hi David,
    welcome to the Art of Slap Bass!

    I’m sorry to hear that this w-site makes you uncomfortable.

    My main focus was more on giving useful information about slap bass than colors on the forum. But I do want to make it as pleasant as possible, so please let me know what bothers you and what would be your suggestion to make this forum and w-site better.

    Any other thoughts on this subject (design and general look of the w-site)?

    Thank you![/quote]

    Yeah need to customize everything too, the default layout looks good just different.

    Overall great looking site and I can see a lot of great info coming out of it. Already a lot of good members that I have noticed from other forums that actually help people out when they ask questions instead of bashing them for not already knowing the answer.

    I tore mine off too, someone told me the end rubber thing from cruthes works well, think I will try rigging that up somehow so it doesnt keep getting torn off. I tend to drag my bass around a lot.

    Thats awesome, I learnt a few maiden riffs now just to mess around with on upright, the gallopy riffs are so fun to get a good slap rythm going with.

    I like steels myself so far but going to try out those superior wackers and see what they are like.

    like nekroman said on some forum, once you get to know your setup and strings well enough you can make it sound however you want. I like to believe that and one day hope to be good enough to accomplish that haha.
