    Identify this mystery bass: a prelude to a Pachyderm

    So, backstory: Les Claypool is transitioning into using those Dan Maloney Pachyderm basses full-time and now even live for 6 string song applications. But he hadn't yet had the Pachyderm 6 string ready to play at the time of going on the road to South America. A fill-in model was used. So, what...

    Bass players just have a way with words (Craigslist ad)...

    Not sure this is totally a "We've all been there" sentiment, but I feel for the guy. And if you respond to his ad, at least you know what you're in for (he sounds like quite the crusty character, but very upfront and honest). Bass player looking for drummer/guitar - musicians

  13. Danny E

    Is it really possible for your brain to understand how good of a bass player Les Claypool really is?

    I have recently started listening to Primus, and they're great, but I never knew for one second how complicated and near impossible the basslines are in Primus. I knew that Les Claypool was one helluva bassist, but my god, I never knew he was that good. He can basically play ever technique...

    Should I get a 5 fretted or 6 string fretless (For Playing Primus)

    I've been a big fan of Primus for a while and I know quite a few songs on the 4 string fretted but now I am looking to upgrade. I'm now stuck with the decision of whether I should get a 5 string fretted or 6 string fretless. I also play in a band where we don't play much primus but more classic...

    Primus and Mastodon Show at Red Rocks

    So, I went to the show last night and it was awesome. That's really all I had. Anyone else lucky enough to see them there? It was a perfect May evening as well. Sprinkled a little early on, but stopped. It's not fun to get rained out at Red Rocks.

    Primus songs without slap bass?

    I don't know if there are any, but I'm a finger style player and after seeing a primus concert in orlando I kind of want to learn one of their songs. I just can't slap, nor am I too interested in learning (not that I could possibly compete with les even if I did). So yeah if anyone knows some...

    My Name Is Mud Technique

    I've looked up so many covers on YouTube of Primus' My Name Is Mud, and I've watch even more videos of Les playing the song. Saw them live a week ago, too. Les' double slap thumb technique is quite amazing, and I've had a lot of trouble replicating it. It seems like he is playing...
