Was it obscure to you?

Bored again huh?

No. Occupied on multiple levels at the moment. You understood where I
was
going with my comment about Raytheon.

Yes.

And admit it - you are bored. :)

Speaking of bass guitars...

I'm thinking about getting one of these.

What do you think?

I thought you didn't like bass? Or, was that a thing du jour?

Not what I asked - what do you think?

I'm just thinking of getting something a little easier to play.

I messed around with one of these yesterday and had a lot of fun with
it.

Don't know that I want to learn a whole new technique though.

Kelly has a good reputation, and for acoustic instruments, Fishman
electronics are highly regarded. But, there's one thing to consider with
acoustic basses, and it's true regardless of the brand: When you're playing
alone, it'll sound plenty loud to you, even without an amp. It's an
illusion. It won't hold its own against other instruments, except maybe a
flute. Bass needs more power to go anywhere significant.

I don't expect to play with others - this is just for my own amusement
and trying to keep the fingers nimble enough - I've been having some
problems with dexterity and need to exercise them more.

And I hate the exercises the therapist recommends.- Hide quoted text -

How about keyboards?

Me, I just go play with sharks
