I fucking love the messages about "I haven't changed my strings" or the weak gear shit. Like fuck off. I'm a 16 year old who worked about 20 hours a week this summer at a minimum wage-paying job ($7.25/hour) and I managed to get a Squier bass, Rumble 25 amp, a power chord and neck strap, countless lunch runs, and a used fender jazz bass. That all totaled up to almost $1000 and I still have around $400-$500. And I'm willing to buy new strings for my bass, I'm going to soon as my jazz bass is used and I don't know how long the old owner had it. Plus the strings on it are kinda trashy anyways even though the thing still sounds miles better than the Squier. But I managed to do this as a 16-year-old making $7.25 an hour and working around 20 hours a week. HOW CAN A YOUNG ADULT (20-25 years old) BE SO LAZY AS TO BRING IN A SQUIER WITH STRINGS FROM THE LAST ICE AGE WHEN I'VE DONE WHAT I'VE DONE AS A TEENAGER?!

Like I said, it is typically a phrase that leads to someone not wanting to pay you. (And this is from experience as a professional digital artist, BTW) When someone actually intends to pay me for some bit of work, they don't start out with "I'll sort you out. " You know what they say? Something like: Hey, I really need this thing done. What's your hourly rate, how long do you think it will take, and can you cut me deal of it's less than an hour? Thanks, man. You're a big help. 99% of the time, if someone starts out with something other than straight up asking about actual cost, they're hoping it'll just be a favor to them. Or maybe a beer. Or maybe "exposure."

Glen, thank you for being the voice in the back of every engineer's head. I think I may have one group of people, who rank lower than your bass players. My bad apples were RAPPERS. It's a whole other level of narcissism. I had to take these sessions in by necessity, as I was the financial backbone (the only engineer) for the commercial studio, I was working in. I am a music producer of different genres, grew up playing death metal, but moved into different stuff like acid rock and electronic stuff like Aphex Twin (NOT DANCE MUSIC) - so I didn't mind taking on a few vocal recordings. Real easy money. Up until I had dabs dripped into one of my day-old synthesizers, our studio raided by strangers to party all through the night, and didn't help clean up. The worst was the gun threats, received for criticizing a recording take. For some reason none of the other musicians in other genres acted this way. Didn't matter what color they were, the rappers came in and fucked shit up, on the regular.

I really liked how Glenn changed shirts three times during the 14-minute duration of this video. I couldn't decide which one was better either, dude.

"just cuz im black" in an all text based conversation sums up our modern victim-culture perfectly.

I've been a bass player for a long time. Even when I was a broke ass teenager I always loved the sound of new strings and tried to put fresh ones on every few months. Unless your playing Motown or something that requires a flat dull sound, I cannot for the life of me understand why bass players do not want to change strings or otherwise properly maintain their instrument. I love my bass and treat it like any other fine instrument, and always want to sound my best in public or on a recording.

The first two minutes of this video is what got me out of teaching music, I started teaching guitar in my teenage years on my own, everyone instead expected to become friends and get free lessons. I later got employed by a studio that ensured I was getting paid for my work; even then people still expected that over time lessons would be free. It still to this day surprises me how many people think they can barge into your life and get free work out of you, unless I know you personally outside of my passion, I am probably not going to invest the time, time which would benefit me in no way whatsoever.

This series keeps getting better each episode! Keep it up Glenn, Love from Italy!

If I had a guitar that I wanted to give away, I wouldn't give it to a person who wants to break it. That's just fucking stupid, I never got the appeal of the instrument destruction. When I was a stupid teenager dreaming about being a "rockstar", I had an idea of making fun of it by putting a guitar together on stage quickly before a show or two.

Hi, Glenn. I'm wondering what your opinion of bass players who can't afford to change their strings is? I have been playing bass for (about) 4 years now but have never changed my strings due to the fact that I'm too poor and am in college. I get the whole "change it before you record" thing as it gives a much better tone for the track, but if I can't afford to rent studio time should I even be giving a shit about the flat tones I get on my bass that much or should I just focus on practising before I step into the industry? Hope you see this as it will help me immensely, thanks. (My bass was also a cheap as fuck knockoff for like £40)

Yeah, seemed pretty obvious fake to me.

I mean I hope it is.

The last text exchange is gold. And makes me weep for the future.

On basses with strings that don't get changed, I recently read an interview in which a bass player recounted the following: When we recorded our lest record the producer asked me if I wanted to give his Precision a try. He said I should have a go with it, because it had an amazing DI sound. The next day he brought it to the studio and I played it dry a bit while he was setting up. The strings were dead. Absolutely dead! So I said "OK, I'll do it, but let me change the strings first". He went "No way. These strings will never get changed. This bass with these dead strings has been on some albums I've produced. Its tone is legendary." The bass player: Roger Glover. The producer: Bob Ezrin. The records he mentions: Pink Floyds "The Wall", Peter Gabriel "Peter Gabriel(I)" and Alice Coopers "Schools Out". So Glover didn't change the strings and it's on Deep Purples "Now What?!" When I read that interview I thought that the role reversal (bass player wants to change strings, producer is strictly opposed to it) was kind of funny. And sure, that's not going to work 99% of the time, but then again, you can't argue it didn't work for Ezrin...

Anyone got a link to the video playing in the corner during the Glenn's Children bit? That looks hilarious.

Greatest freakouts series. Look up youtube user Wafflepwn

Thank you for the ride this far. It's been an experience. I'm also happy to see you are getting much better at pronouncing all that wierd spelling over time. ;-)

Dude I never comment on a video on YT but these vids keep me laughing everytime. As a young music engineer and guitarist in a band I feel both of the pains. Keep up the good work greetz from the netherlands!!

That guitar's neck joint was AWESOME!!

These problems with price negotiations remind me of my own work as a legal courier. The last time someone called from out of the blue to give me work as if it were a done deal without negotiating a price first, it turned out they expected me to do it for less money than doing what they wanted would have cost me in gas and bridge tolls. And they were basing that price on a completely different service I provided to them two years earlier. You really do need to get in writing what you are going to charge before you agree to do anything.

*To the person who sent in the last text:* Thank you. My grandfather died last weekend and that's the hardest I've laughed since. Gotta love the SMTs. :'D Thanks Glen!

the fact that you read these texts as written is killing me! LOL! a gift indeed

Another great video man, Awesome to have met you/got a pic with you at Fanexpo this year. Hope you enjoyed the convention. All the best

Oh man, I laughed so hard at you reading back the last one, brilliant.

Been looking forward to the latest one of these for ages, these videos were how I originally came across your channel, great content, genuinely.

I love that you sound out everything as they spell it. Especially the last one LOL

"Glenn, fuck, you're old!" That killed me.

Ok comparing this to the show now, you’ve come a long way bro. Keep it up!

I know a guy that has a Höfner 182 bass from the 60s that still has the original flat wound strings on it. For a cheap hardly working bass with 55 year old strings on it, it actually sounded pretty good surprisingly. Weird how flat wounds can still sound nice after so long.

HAHA dude you had Me Laughing so fucking hard at your "Call Glenns Children" with the strings behind you

ok... just finished the video. best channel on KZread. don't stop. won't stop. can't stop. I will buy things soon
