Bass Bible? No, just the only current book available in that depth but some of what he would do would never be allowed on my basses.
He is not MY mentor now or in the future, ever. Just a guy that found time to write a book.
It's best that you and others know this difference.
So on a bass 6 feet tall, 1/4=2/8 is better than 3/8 to vibrate? So 1/8" difference is better on a 6ft tall bass over 2 feet wide and deep as 3 cellos. 1/8th inch?
Maybe I can sell you a bridge if you believe that! The Brooklyn Bridge maybe? Interested? I'll let you pay it off monthly..
