Yeah, like we talked about. I have really only tried maybe 6 types of strings in my life so I am game to try a lot. I actually like a pretty bright string for my cleans. I always end up playing a lot of melodic kind of chicken picken type parts before stomping on pedals.

i have no idea what that means, but i'm sort of in love with the phrase "chicken picken type parts".

Playing with thumb and first 3 fingers, hitting lower note wih thumb, plucking with other 3 fingers. Sort of a country/banjo type technique, sounds good doing other stuff, I bastardize the technique as well.

So, is this sorta a slap/pop/banjo roll hybrid?

not gonna lie. you just ruined some of the magic of that phrase by explaining it.

that was an explanation?

Give me input goddamnit!!!

I'm not the tech guy. I just come in with one liners and emo biatch posts, every now and then.

Ooh, I wonder who the cool (secretly gay) guy with an attitude is? And the funny black guy! Oh, isn't he funny!

I just did an image search for "bondage goat zombie". I'm disappointed.

HAHA!

The chickin' pickin' reminds that I need to work on my finger technique as it's been slippin'. But... Posting at I Love Fuzz reminds me I should go out and look at a Pedaltrain 3. I could do both but I don't have that kind of attention span...

I mean the chicken pickin' technique that I use is definately my own variation. Behndy, just because it has a Bluegrass/Banjo/ Americana/Old School Country/Hill Billy roots doesn't mean you have to play that type of music with it. I played bass by myself, in my room, for a long time. I was in bands for years. Then I quit playing bands and just jammed with other people here and there. I was writing songs on bass, so I found a way to play melody and have some low notes too. So, I still write stuff like that, then show the band, then I decide if I play it like I wrote it or play more normal bass lines or what. I actually learned about the technique from a Zak Wylde article in guitar player in 1992 or something. He does it with a pick between thumb and pointer (like normal) and uses his other 3 fingers. I pretty much don't play with a pick so I worked out my own version.

nope. THE DESCRIPTION RUINED THE MAGIC.
