[@paulg1897]

Hi Tony, I hope you read this comment. My 3 best friends and I formed a band when we were about 13 or 14. It would have been around1983 or 84. For young lads, we were aged beyond our years, influenced by older siblings. Our main influences were The Beatles, The Who, Zeppelin, Aerosmith,(the 70's records), BadCo, and we had just discovered Rush. We played every Sunday at the drummers house. Then The first Firm record came out. We said "WTF is that.??" We were instant fans! Your bass and Jimmy's guitar were like fluid, spilling out of the cassette player and all over the damn floor. My friend, the bass player, ran out and bought a JB Player Fretless bass that week!!!. Many nights the four of us would shoot pool in the pool hall, with "Mean Business" blaring from our boom box. I have a photo I wish I could share, but it was our first big gig in 1987, in front of 3000 people at our High School and we played, "Live in Peace." Today us four lads are still best friends and cherish our youth and how The Firm was a huge soundtrack to those formidable musician teen years. Although I'm a guitarist, the only bass I own is a fretless bass! Thank you Tony! ~ Cheers PG

[@FretlessMonster]

Hey Paul. Thanks for your great message. Those moments, especially at that age, are so meaningful. They never leave us. I loved hearing that. And it’s so cool that you’re still best friends. My best to you all!

[@countzero1972]

Happy belated birthday.. we are close on the day but you have 10 years extra 'life experience' than I do. Bass caught my interest in my teens, but I only really started poking around in my 30's (I am a drum guy primarily). There is no way I could catch up to your bass playing level but it is fun to try. Your vids are great for giving me fretless riff ideas. I use tape wound strings to preserve the delicate fretboard on my inexpensive fretless, but it still sounds pretty good through my 100 watt 15" combo. Not many 'famous' bass players were or are dedicated fretless players and I can count the current number of people rocking the fretless bass on one finger! Keep making the great vids. Thanks

[@FretlessMonster]

I appreciate all that. Happy belated to you. Just keep having fun with the Fretless. That’s the way - I’m doing the same. I prefer tape wounds over regular flats. I need the rounds to get my sound. Yes Fretless seems to be a rarity - especially in heavier music. 🤷‍♂️🤩

[@chrissullivan1810]

Happy Birthday, my friend!!!

[@BigSunn0]

Happy Birthday maaang!! Hey, anybody know what's that stuff on the nut around the A string??? Is it to stop rattling?

[@FretlessMonster]

I had a slight buzz on that string. The rest was perfect and I didn’t want to mess with it. The little piece of cloth did the trick.

[@chickberth]

Happy birthday to you and my daughter both!

[@FretlessMonster]

Thanks! And Happy Birthday to your daughter.

[@wademiyataki9221]

Happy Birthday, sir!

[@klistarf]

Happy belated, Tony. All the best, Mate. Here's to the next 61. In that time, you may get a chance to get some practice in and, who knows, you might even get to a half decent level. Pmsl! Of course i jest! Keep up the stellar work, Sir. And keep happy and smiling. Best wishes and huge respect, as always... 🤟😎

[@FretlessMonster]

Thank you kindly. I’m still practicing 😂👏🏻😩
