Kevin, could you imagine the amount of practice it would take to master a Hyperbass? I'd say years at my current rate.

The detuning stuff is really crazy, you'd like have to specialize only in that bass.
'Course, can you imagine how long it'd take to master a 9-string ERB? |
In my opinion, nobody ever has fully mastered a string instrument.

DID ANYONE F*CKING ASK YOU, CELLO COLIN?!  |
...except for me and the cello, of course
|
Yeah, you are pretty f*cking amazing on that cello. |
yep.

Gah, it's 52 degrees outside and the air coming in the window feels like it, but I don't want to close the window. I guess I'll have to sit here and be cold.

Making the jump from a 4 to a 5 string bass was incredible what it did to range, I'd imagine going to a 7 is even better.

they play exactly like any 6 string, basically, except LOW Well, I guess the frets are spaced further apart too, but it's insignificant IMO

So Matt, what's your favorite style of trombone, bass trombone or standard? I prefer the bass, because it offers a wider range.

Ew, I think some of the guys in my hall are playing wookie cookie in the bathroom.
That, or having an orgy or something. Naked people keep running up and down the hall.
