Volume 2 Let's Assemble! Dream chaser! Chapter 209: Buying Bass
Wu Sheng and Xia Qi became friends, and they said goodbye to the two of them.
There is no shortage of yakiniku restaurants and izakaya on the neon streets.
The three of them casually found a house with thick smoke and bustle, and walked in.
Luffy, who had just received a huge sum of 1.5 million, was extremely bold, what was the best snowflake cow, the best cow tongue, and the general location where he didn't want money, Wu Sheng was a little frightened when he saw it, and hurriedly persuaded.
"According to your amount of food, let's still order cheaper, so that we can eat more."
"It's fine!" Luffy waved his hand haughtily, go to these first! Not enough to order again!
The waiter looked at the three of them in school uniforms, silently calculated the written menu in his hand, and felt a little guilty in his heart, not because he was afraid that the three of them would not be able to finish eating, but because he was afraid that the three of them would not have money to give.
But looking at Luffy's bold style, his lips moved for a while, and finally he didn't speak, but turned his head to place an order.
"Loser......" Wu Sheng shook his head, no wonder the Straw Hats in the Pirate World had to starve to death on the sea voyage several times.
It's because Luffy is too edible, and he doesn't have any numbers in his heart.
"Sauron has given up a famous knife, and I want to compensate him." Luffy patted Zoro on the shoulder and laughed.
Zoro doesn't want to eat this: "Don't me, you just want to eat it yourself." ”
"Hey, hey, hey, hey." Luffy leaned back and stepped out of the way and asked the waiter to set the charcoal fire.
Then a plate of tender beef was handed over and a table was filled.
Wu Sheng sandwiched it up one by one and put it away, while Luffy gulped down the cabbage that the store had served.
"Today, the 6 million is really lost." Wu Sheng looked at the beef slightly rolled up on the barbed wire, a little distracted.
He is not a person who still talks about things after the matter is a foregone conclusion, but today's transaction is really too much of a loss, and he can't let go of it until now.
It's still too poor, if you have money, you won't sell a treasure at a low price.
Wu Sheng was a little ruthless, feeling that he was a little rich and peaceful, even if he crossed the awakening, he still couldn't change it.
If they had "written" songs with Brooke earlier, maybe their first album would have been released by now!
"Anyway, I can't use it, why do you put it mildew." Sauron is free and easy, he is now bent on pursuing the best sword skills, and he has a much less desire for good swords.
"Yes." Luffy also chimed in: "Isn't it fragrant to change to barbecue?" Takeda, let me tell you, after eating this barbecue today, my combat effectiveness can increase by at least 5 percentage points! ”
“......”
Wu Sheng didn't doubt it, this guy ate, slept and ate every day, didn't exercise, and didn't train.
But his combat effectiveness has always followed Wu Sheng and Zoro closely, and he has never fallen behind, which really makes people wonder if he has opened something.
In Wu Sheng's view, only the protagonist of the invincible flow of the system has this kind of terrifying progress.
Even if the old man is plugged in, the protagonist has to suffer a lot, don't look at a certain Yan who fights and turns into a horse, but people don't suffer a little.
It can only be said that the stronger the belief in the sin realm, the stronger the power rule of the awakened, which is too explosive.
How straightforward is Luffy? How strong is the conviction?
Isn't this just in his arms?
We are a Ben San boy who has to doubt his life at least three times a day, and he really can't compare, he can't compare.
Wu Sheng shook his head, didn't think about it anymore, anyway, he didn't have to pay for it himself, of course he could eat it!
Just let go and grab meat with Luffy happily.
"Wait, I'm optimistic about this one!"
"There's no name on it!"
"Is your mouth made of iron? Stuff it without blowing it? ”
......
The three of them had a very hearty barbecue.
Even when Wu Sheng walked out of the store, he felt that this summer night breeze was blowing with a pleasant atmosphere.
The whole world seemed to be clearer in front of me.
He breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction, a luxurious meal,
The improvement of people's spiritual quality is so domineering and unreasonable.
"It's nice to have money." Luffy also stretched: "I've wanted to eat like this for a long time, I originally wanted to have a chance after entering the underworld, but I didn't expect it, it's done now!" ”
"Sure enough, we should go to the Temple of the Sin Realm more to explore and eliminate more evil thoughts!"
"By the way, it seems that the treasure jade that eliminated the evil thoughts of other elites in the Sword Hall has not been opened yet?" Zoro suddenly remembered.
Luffy's eyes lit up: "That's right! There are several! Maybe ......"
"Alright." Wu Sheng interrupted him: "What's the hurry, wait until you run out of money, we have to rehearse the song wholeheartedly this week!" The campus festival is just a few days away! ”
"That's right." Luffy nodded.
"It's good to understand." Wu Sheng snapped his fingers and waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go buy bass." ”
That's what whims are all about.
After eating and drinking, Wu Sheng didn't want to wait for Brooke to buy it together, anyway, he wasn't going to buy a particularly good one, buy a professional bass, comfortable to use, the right size, excellent sound quality, and like the appearance, just do it.
He didn't look around, and took Luffy and Zoro back to Jimbochon.
There is also a large musical instrument shop here.
Buying a professional instrument that is completely your own is a very fulfilling thing.
This feeling is probably similar to changing equipment in an online game.
Although it can be used before, this one is better, stronger, more handsome and cooler!
He rejected the clerk's recommendation and chose to see it for himself.
At this time, I was in front of a row of shelves full of bass, carefully selected.
Luffy and Zoro kept making random suggestions, what is more dazzling, this one has the smell of death metal or something.
Wu Sheng was so annoyed that he hurriedly said to Luffy, "Do you want to buy a pair of drum sticks of your own?" ”
Luffy's eyes lit up, the drum stick he was using now was also the property of the school.
"Buy! Miss clerk, where are the drum sticks? Is there a metal death black? ”
"This is ...... aesthetic ruin," Wu Sheng shook his head and looked down again.
When he played in the band in his last life, he had always used a beginner bass, and he had never tried a more advanced professional bass.
When I was young, I always thought that a bass was a bass, a guitar was a guitar, and the same was a number of strings, would there be any difference?
Later, I learned that there are also types of basses, Pre bass and Jazz bass are the two common categories, and there are other more niche ones, and many people who play bands may not have heard of them.
Although the two basses have different shapes, this is not the main reason for the difference, the main difference is the pickups.
Pre bass generally have only one P-type pickup, while Jazz has two J-type pickups.
The tone of the Pre bass is more gentle and thick, not easily covered by the guitar or other instruments, and the backing accompaniment is very solid.
The Jazz bass, on the other hand, is more round and smooth, highlighting the high and low frequencies, which is more comprehensive and has more SOLO space.
Of course, it's not just the type and pickups that affect the tone, but also the strings, the material of the body, the material of the handles, and even the subtle tweaks in the structure, which can lead to a difference in tone.
Basically, even if it is a brand and a model of bass, the tone will be different.
Therefore, when the primary selection was made, there was basically no big requirement, and he would not buy a knife and customize it according to the width of the palm of his arm, and Wu Sheng would not pay too much attention to comfort when he selected.
Musical instruments like electric guitars and basses will be constantly rectified as the musicians get used to it, and it will be like changing the car, any part can be changed, you can add it, and the more comfortable it is, the more comfortable it is.
Therefore, in the selection, as long as there is no problem in workmanship and pitch, the main consideration is timbre and appearance when choosing.
"Can I try this?" He asked the clerk who was standing far away.
Wu Sheng chose a black-brown P-shaped bass, the shape is not as sharp as the geometric shape of that heavy metal, the whole is round after all, even if there are two corners, hold it
It is very comfortable.
The stainless steel round strings should also be very comfortable to play.
The clerk nodded, hurriedly ran over and carefully took it down, and handed it to Wu Sheng: "Please be careful." ”
This kind of instrument that needs to be plugged in is impossible to play like an acoustic guitar.
Wu Sheng found a suitable speaker on the side, plugged it in, and played a few notes, feeling a little too low and muddy.
But I didn't give up, and SOLO for a short while, and then I still felt that it couldn't be done, so I handed it back to the clerk and looked at it again.
Then I picked several auditions.
The clerk is a young lady, and now it's almost time for the end of work, but seeing that his posture really doesn't look like he's here to make trouble, he also tried his best to help him get the piano, and by the way, he also gave his own recommendation.
I have to say that it is really comfortable to buy things in Neon, the clerk is so loud and angry, there is no impatience at all, and he does not go to look at the clock and watch frequently, or urge them to get off work with Wu Sheng.
After a round of selection and selection, Wu Sheng finally tried a P-type Bass under the introduction of the young lady after Luffy chose the drum stick and paid for it, and the timbre was excellent, after all, it was to serve the band for songs, and there was no need to buy a Jazz type.
This is a red and white bass, which can be regarded as a "Sao" word in the low-key bass world.
"Are there any other colors? Black or less ostentatious. ”
Wu Sheng looked at the brand LOGO on the head, it was a brand he had never heard of, but I heard from the clerk that it was very famous in this world, so the price was not low.
The clerk took over and looked at the model, walked to the counter computer for a moment, and said, "There is no pure black, but there are red and black, customer, do you see?" ”
"Okay, let's take a look." Wu Sheng nodded, the timbre gap between the two pianos under the same model should not be too big.
After taking it out of the warehouse, the clerk took it out and saw that it was red wrapped in black, and it changed from a bright snarl to a dark sau.
Wu Sheng looked at it with disgust, but he still picked it up and tried it, and the sound turned out to be more pleasing to him than the previous one.
Now I'm a little hesitant, I really like this tone, but this color is ......
"This one is very handsome, it suits you very well." Luffy said on the side: "It's quite consistent with your temperament, it's very sullen." ”
"Yes." Sauron agreed.
"Poof." The young lady on the side accidentally laughed.
Wu Sheng immediately turned his head to stare at her.
She hurriedly looked up at the sky: "This model is only these two colors." ”
Wu Sheng lowered his head and played again, found that it was indeed comfortable, and nodded decisively to buy it.
Subsequently, in addition to the bass, I also bought a small speaker and effects for practice at home at the recommendation of the clerk's sister.
In fact, many professional bands will equip different professional speakers and effects for large and small performances on different occasions.
But now they're just amateurs in a group for 2 weeks, so they don't pay that much attention. If you really buy a lot of effects, not to mention the inconvenience of carrying, the price is not affordable for students.
The price of this bass is 480,000 yen, which can be regarded as the middle and upper level of professional bass, and it will cost 30,000+ to convert it into soft girl coins.
However, as long as this thing is not bad, it can be used for a lifetime, and Wu Sheng does not have a habit of collecting musical instruments, if there is no accident, this is probably the first and last bass in his life.
So buy more expensive, buy more expensive.
With the addition of a multi-effect and a small speaker, it costs a total of 600,000 yen.
After paying, the clerk gave him two paddles, and then stuffed all the receipts and warranty cards into the gin bag, and attached a business card, indicating that if there is any quality problem, you can contact at any time.
Wu Sheng nodded, put on the piano bag directly, and walked home with Luffy alone with a small speaker.
This is why he wants to buy it near his home, how can he not buy a speaker when he buys a bass?
In his previous life, he didn't understand, but he bought a bass and went home to play for several months, only to know that it was to be matched with speaker effects, so he also made a lot of jokes.
If you do it all over again this time, of course you won't do such a stupid thing.
