Why? You wanna know why?

Why? because I still don't know what the tartelian hell is tartan felicitaions!


does it have anything to do with Elvis impersonating? anything at all?

what about Johnny Wayne was a Joker or Raindrops keep falling on my Bed? am I getting close? Does Ken know yet?
I've heard that Ken and Arnold both know but they are not sharing it -you know - like their secret way of installing a carbon fiber rod into a neck...I guess some of their knowledge we will never by previledged to know-let's see- do they implant the rod in a young maple tree- no that would take too long. . . raindrops keep falling on my bed...

Raindrops keep falling on your bed? Wayne, that's Acid rain and from the looks of things, you are orally extracting just the Acid!

Try sleeping with your mouth closed!

Ken, I get it. I've been in the States for close to 26 years. I live in Montclair, NJ. I'm just two blocks from the Wellmont Theater, where they've been having some excellent jazz concerts lately. As for Dominican Republic, I hope you realize that the majority of Bass guitar players on Merengue bands have been using your guitars and are regarded as the standard...so I've been told. When I fianlly caved in to the family about learning to play...(I usually stick to writing lyrics) my uncles just said...buy a Ken Smith if we're going to tewach you...so hear I am...waiting for a deal from one your posters...lol. As for Wayne....I was born in 1975...Momma had to name me after the "HOTTIE" on the picture...guess who that was...yep... Elvis..circa 1963....

Just what does this have to do with my one-a question?

tartan felicitaions---HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO

Wayne, rain on your own Parade. This is Elvis's thread. Do the math, mouth open if you must.

Hi Elvis,
Welcome to the forum.
Just want to share with you an experience I had 33 years before when I was 17.
I really thought that the Jazz Bass was the only necessary thing in order to play like Jaco.
My father was enough tired of me baging for this bass that finaly bought me the mighty Jazz.
It was my biggest chance in my life to learn three essential things:
- I was playing lousy even with the Jazz Bass, so I started seriosly to have bass and music lessons (Thanks God)
- My first bass was the top ( for that time) and if something was wrong in my playing it was nobody else than ME.
- My first bass was a Jazz Bass and I could live and play with it all my life and I still have it and it still sounds as goog as a Jazz Bass must sound. My taste for high end basses had some high refference. After owning about all high end basses, Smith was the next and maybe final step.
What I want to say? Stay away of cheap, trendy or coloured basses.
Save your cash and go get yourself the Smith of your dreams, I'd bet you will never regret.
Best regards

I am serious- I want to know what it means. What's wrong with that?

I ain't the sharpest blade in the shop, but I do have a curious mind- I can't find tar fel in the dictionary-

do you know what it means- is it the name of a special breed of dogs, perhaps. Maybe your new member doesn't have the ability to put pictures on your forum, like me, but the closest thing was his dogs name-could that be what it means? You get your own umb brella- you young whipper snapper.

Wrong thread.. Ok?

[Elvis Bernal]

[Elvis Bernal]

Mr. Smith: I apologize for Wayne's blatant Hi-jack of my thread...all in good fun. However, I'm new here and don't want to appear as if am encouraging him. Lol....you know him better than I do.

"I got to go to work?" Wow, that's the smartest thing I've ever heard you say!
