The Bass Geek

That little truss rod adjustment has really brought the Stingray back to life - it’s playing like a dream now, and it sounds great. Which is good, ’cause rehearsals are running long. Quite long. Still, the music is a joy, and I’ve got space to do some cool stuff within the ensemble.

I’m also doing some beta software testing - nothing worth commenting on, but just some fun playing around with a new program. It’s fun to try and break these things.

Still working through “The Music Lesson” - comparing a book to the work of Carlos Castaneda isn’t the best way to appeal to me (I tried in college, and it didn’t take. At all.). Some of it is interesting (especially the learning music through immersion parts, although that’s been tackled by Suzuki), and some of it I already do, just not as framed in the book’s terms. Some of it makes me want to kick a hippie in protest. Such is life - I suppose there’s a lesson to be learned there as well.
