Rabbath : out of the window

[noetical1]

Yes, he did a short stint with the Who back in 2005...

[doublebaspim]

where can I order this piece;) Is it also arranged for viola?:)

[Tbannu]

My god, that's the most violent thing I've ever seen.

[chdinaut]

why did he not give this bass to me...i could never buy this instrument...

[Jshaw1ful]

Wow that hurt

[iteachbass]

This just makes me ill! I'm grateful to my wonderful teachers, who taught me how to actually play in POSITIONS on a bass tuned in fourths and carry on the great traditions of Simandl and Zimmermann.

[frankiepoolboy]

Was he in The Who?

[mrkrauley]

That bass was so junky, I don't think it would have benefited anyone by keeping it around. This man did the world a service by ridding us of its presence. Makes better firewood than a bass.

[black325ibeamer]

What a waste. Is this what happens when we are immune to the value of anything we own because we lost focus of how hard it took to earn it? This is such a waste. How about a young student in need of a bass like this? Very disturbed.

[banjojanet]

I can't tell you how hard my husband and I worked and how long it took us to save up enough money to buy a bass for me. Don't worry Eric and friends at Upton Bass....I would never even dream about doing something like this to my bass. It would be like throwing a piece of myself out the window....Just not happening.

[revorrah]

I love you, Francois.

[volozbass]

very good!!! the  sound of bass was not good..:)

[ojedia]

I can't believe that is really Rabbath doing that stupid thing...

[boomgungun]

that gave me heartache, waste of resources, craftmanship, energy, hard work for exactly what? i wish i own a decent bass...

[gevantassa]

THIS is the main difference between Rabbath and every one else. Lo que rabbath tiene son huevos y no las chingaderas que traen colgando todos los pendejos que no entienden algo tan sublime como es desprenderte de un objeto de esta manera

[wohodude100]

Shit man that was awesome, I was always wondering what it would look like if someone dropped a bass from a window. Thanks Rabbath for doing it so we don't have to

[Nboy514]

Stay classy asshole.

[ralph5656]

No wonder I never heard of this guy. he can't play. Throw him out th window

[gevantassa]

@ralph5656 you really dont know what you are talking about

[clasicalfan]

I just cant imagine someone like Guy D. Tuneh or Gary Karr doing something like this!!

Dear Francois, even not as a Joke!!

[FORANYREASON]

a bass is way better on a sinking ship than jumping of an airplane

[tocamadera]

definitivamente no tiene nada de aerodinámico, a lo mejor con otras cuerdas...

[gevantassa]

@tocamadera es que el puente estaba mal ajustado XD

[tarastar18]

C'est la seule sortie possible pour quelqun qui manque d'humilité face à l'instrument ...Pas étonnant , très banal dans le fond et dans les faits !

[Flitzpitz]

Der Typ ist  doch völlig bescheuert!!!

[clasicalfan]

W.T.F.???!!

How can someone do something like this to a music instrument??

A real musician will miss a heart-bit before doing something like THIS!

SHAME ON YOU!!!

[kadenbass]

This is why I stick with Gary Karr.

[Basspfeifer]

Good thing that bass didn't go to some needy kid or school...

[hbfosho]

That is the worst thing i've ever seen. it completely ruined my night. on the oter hand, based on how the bass sounded, i would have done the same thing. I still love Rabbath though.

[tatillon]

plutôt rabbath-joie, non ?

[RyanPridgeon]

O.o
