Categoria: great stuff

History: bassist for almost 20 years – play in a signed band. not saying which one.

Purchase: Bought at Bluebond guitars in Phila, PA for $600. Saw the red pearloid pickguard and fell in love.

What I Like About The Fender Precision Bass (Made in Japan): C’mon, it’s a P-bass. It gets one sound but does it so well… The Japanese made fenders of the 80’s are truly works of art and are the only decent made intruments from that era. This is my second MIJ Fender; the first was sold off for a Carvin when i didn’t know any better but i have since learned my lesson. 80’s American Fenders are crap – the ones made in Japan were the same instruments built with the same parts but with better workmanship for half the price. The neck is a joy to play – beefy like a P should be but not the hard U-shape of some that i’ve used. The tone is lovely, thick and punchy with that P-bass THUMMMMM sort of sound. Black with a red pearloid pickguard… simple, elegant and big-bootied.

What I Do NOT Like About The Fender Precision Bass (Made in Japan): a little neck-divey sometimes and the volume pot is a little loose. i’ve turned myself off before when strumming. otherwise, no complaints.

Quality: it’s a slab securely bolted to another slab – what could be bad? good, solid traditional hardware that was put on very carefully. you could use it as a baseball bat and it wouldn’t need much of a setup.

Summary: it does one thing and it does it exceedingly well. it will not crackle, it will not SING, it will not tiptoe. it will bounce, shake, be throaty and aggressive, and generally be big-bootied. it’s forgiving and articulate, but not delicate.

I’m currently in the planning stages of building a hosted Java web application (yes, it has to be Java, for a variety of reasons that I don’t feel like going into right now). In the process, I’m evaluating a bunch of J2EE portlet-enabled JSR-compliant MVC role-based CMS web service application container frameworks.

“What have we here laddie?
Mysterious scribblings?
A secret code?
No – poems, no less – poems, everybody!
The laddie recons himself a poet!

Absolute rubbish, laddie!
(smack!)
Get on with your work!
Repeat after me:
An acre is the area of a rectangle whois legs ….

…
You can surrender
Without a prayer
But never really pray
Pray without surrender

You can fight
Without ever winning
But never ever win
Without a fight

by Neil Peart

Just put me in a wheelchair, get me to the show
Hurry hurry hurry before I can’t let go
I can’t control my fingers, I can’t control my toes
Oh no oh no oh no

All that you touch
All that you see
All that you taste
All you feel.
All that you love
All that you hate
All you distrust
All you save.
All that you give
All that you deal
All that you buy,
Beg, borrow or steal.
All you create
All you destroy
All that you do
All that you say.
All that you eat
And everyone you meet
All that you slight
And everyone you fight.
All that is now
All that is gone
All that’s to come
And everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

There is no dark side of the moon really. Matter of fact it’s all dark

I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly

I’d fly above the trees
Over the seas in all degrees
To anywhere I please

Oh I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah

Scarry also!
