The craziest Jaco video you will find. Ever.
I kid actually. Yes it is a joke, Jaco and Scofield never sounded like that. This is hilarious, whoever dubbed this video is a genius.
I dont know anything about music, I'm just the bass player.
I found this t-shirt while looking up bass books on amazon. (Click Here) I feel like someone just got lazy and slapped this onto a t-shirt.
Just when I thought bass clothing couldnt get any worse.

How many bass players does it take to change a lightbulb...

I never really liked musician jokes, you know the cheesy ones that stereotyped people by the instrument they played. But they are funny sometimes. Here is the best list I could find of jokes about Bass Players. Most are chuckle worthy.

He does it all folks...
Apparently Mike Huckabee, presidential hopeful, not only plays the bass but also steals songs from shitty bands like Boston.
Huckabee got a letter from the founder of the band Boston telling him to stop using their songs.
Please Huckabee put down the bass. You are making the rest of us look bad.
But seriously, do. We don’t need you.

You have GOT to be kidding me...
This right here is to a replica of Jaco's famous Fender Jazz bass. I would be fine with it being just the model and type or whatever, but they actually put in the scratches and ware!
That to me is like buying a hat that already has the brim worn off.
I hope I never see anyone playing one of these unless they got it for free.
They are actually charging 4 grand for a pre-worn bass? I don't care who's name is on it you would have to pay me to use this bass as my main instrument.
I wish I was there during that marketing meeting. I could literally name 50 different basses in that price range that aren't NEARLY as pretentious. And that includes the Gene Simmons bass.(If there is one.)

The tuner I use
Have you ever been stuck without a tuner? Well the link below is to a free online tuner. This is a link that I use so much that it is on my mozilla toolbar. Check it out, you can even preset it.

If you like rock bass solos then this is an album you should not be without. Bassist Brian Ritchie rips on an acoustic bass giving a brilliantly unusual tone to the bands crunchy-punk dynamic.
Check out the tracks:
