I don't want to sound too greedy, but can you take a picture of the serial #? davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 10315 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Saturday, July 30, 2011 - 5:19 pm:    Great shots of a wonderful bass! The fingerboard looks really nice! artswork99 Moderator Username: artswork99 Post Number: 1562 Registered: 7-2007 Posted on Saturday, July 30, 2011 - 6:11 pm:    Beautiful bass Jon. Play it Healthy! jon_jackson Member Username: jon_jackson Post Number: 82 Registered: 12-2008 Posted on Saturday, July 30, 2011 - 6:13 pm:    Here it is Flip. Sorry it's not better, but this is the best of three: jon_jackson Member Username: jon_jackson Post Number: 83 Registered: 12-2008 Posted on Saturday, July 30, 2011 - 6:16 pm:    I've never played an upright, so the learning curve is steep... However, learning something new keeps you fresh. -Jon fc_spoiler Senior Member Username: fc_spoiler Post Number: 1293 Registered: 5-2006 Posted on Sunday, July 31, 2011 - 12:43 am:    Thanx! I was wondering where they put the number on a Classico, play (and learn) in good health! charles_holmes Intermediate Member Username: charles_holmes Post Number: 148 Registered: 3-2009 Posted on Sunday, July 31, 2011 - 8:33 pm:    Simandl is always the best bet in learning positions, scales, arpeggios etc. Welcome to the world of the Double Bass! I can't seem to put mine down, but it's a 3/4 fully carved Sinoman Bass. Wait till you get to the thumb position which traditionally starts at the 12th fret.I'm going to have to start working out on my Distillate because I haven't played it in over a month and I have some electric gigs coming up soon. Good Luck. charles_holmes Advanced Member Username: charles_holmes Post Number: 214 Registered: 3-2009 Posted on Saturday, December 29, 2012 - 10:49 am:    Hey Jon, How is the progress going with the Classico? jon_jackson Intermediate Member Username: jon_jackson Post Number: 156 Registered: 12-2008 Posted on Sunday, December 30, 2012 - 7:13 am:    Pretty slow. I had to put it aside for some other things, so haven't had the time to get any muscle memory going. Mostly been working with my electrics. charles_holmes Advanced Member Username: charles_holmes Post Number: 216 Registered: 3-2009 Posted on Sunday, December 30, 2012 - 8:03 am:    Ah..I understand that! I bought a Digital Piano over 6 yrs ago and this past year I finally got around to really committing to able to play it. Now I am at the point where the Muscle Memory (tactile) is starting to "kick in." It was really frustrating because I had to literally start spelling out-loud, every chord again & that was really frustrating since I don't have to think about spelling chords/arpeggios when playing the basses. Just hang in there! Try learning "Killer Joe" which is a really easy tune & that might "prime the memory muscle pump!!" Happy New Year!!!! roymus Junior Username: roymus Post Number: 25 Registered: 2-2010 Posted on Monday, May 19, 2014 - 11:58 pm:    Hi there all, I have often wondered what these are like for slap[ rockabilly style etc] as I have never even seen one in the flesh.Do they lend themselves to that style and also do they have any body sensors.
