This is a link post Hilarious forum post of Bass players' self portraits
If you play a bass that has more than four strings, or is fretless, or you spend your evenings learning bass scales, you might enjoy this photo set.

If you're like me though, and are more of a fan of the traditional four-string bass type, you'll find these portraits of jazz-hatted, long-haired, prog loving douchey bass players pulling awkward facial expressions while holding their phallic, 12-string, bass monstrosities... rather funny.

This is a normal post Well I liked it
There are indeed a few daft looking people in there.

And the guy with a 7 string bass? Really? Why? Even on a guitar I think seven strings is a bit much.

This is a normal post I like my 5-string fretless :)
Although it is showing it's age a little...

And yeah...those just appear to be pictures of bass guitarists. I was expecting more of this kind of thing

This is a normal post I presume Arena

This is a normal post One of many reasons
I just stand and play. Stupid facial expressions do not a great bassist make.

This is a normal post I look really bored when I'm playing
Some stupid expressions might make me look like I'm enjoying it

This is a normal post Too many times I shouted "Twat!" at the screen
I know I'm not good enough yet to play while wearing sunglasses, hat, rock-on snarl - and think I can get away with it.
