Cool Bass

Marten is learning how to have no chill from Claire.

Jay MacKinnon

I think Kahler did a bass floating bridge with vibrato bar back in the previous millenium. Search for "bass tremelo fanatics" for more info (or don't, would be my advice).

John Pallister

NAKED!

Yelling Bird

In Willow's yoga class?

Stephen Wells

when do BurgerOni and MommyMilkers meet in person, I wonder...

Kenneth Carlile

Marten be COOL!!!

A bass with a Floyd Rose? Never ever tried one

giacomo vaghi

You bet your sweet bass they are

Mad Marie

or perhaps gonna ‘rupt?

Mad Marie

The title is redundant, all 🅱️asses are cool.

Justin Buckner

Honestly, Marten would be a damned fool not to do that anyway.

Yonatan Zunger

She does. Marten explained it all to her when they drove up to his dad's wedding, there have been some passing comments about it since then (like when she semi-jokingly suggested selling photos of her feet to fetishists online).

William Cole

I forget if Claire knows what Marten's mom used to do.

martin's eyes when he sees the bass lmaoo

If Claire in 20/30 years is going to be like Aurelia is now... Marten really should put a ring on it :)

Stephen Wells

Jeph, were you drooling over Aurelias bass as you were drawing it? No shame, no need to hide it.

Daniel Rydberg

Martin is so cute when his Guitar Brain flips on

Ace of Hearts

I absolutely expect neither claire nor marten to have any idea who or what that is.

Aurelia: “Check out this fine bass.” Marten: “I would totally tap that.”

Mad Marie

Chair pose is rough, y’all!

Mad Marie

Aw shit that's right, Marten's a music nerd. I genuinely forgot about that.

Josh Moberly

If 5 seems like too many, you must not be familiar w/ Jeph's guitar collection. 😄

Pejo

When I started reading this comic ages ago it was a regular on the show.

This comic features a guest appearance from Marten's love of music.

TV4Fun

Dat bass.

Spike

I love how she casually dropped BurgerOni there to smooth the way for the confession.

Bagge

I dunno. I figure if you got chill, order doesn't matter that much, really. Might as well get the bits that people might not have chill about out early, just in case anyone around lacks chill. That way, whomever has as much time as you can give to figure out their chill business.

Some Ed

🥳🤘😁🤘🎸🎶

Carrie

He might even go all the way to PANAMA.

Scott Vogel

It's a mix of both his tone and his technique. Though the 'brown sound' at the time sounded nothing like anyone else. Hence why it was so sought after. I think it's decent. Has it's place, but to me there are better tones out there.

Scott Vogel

The comic has strayed back into Martin's immediate interests and he is going to JUMP on it!

Michael-Erik

Five string bass?

Tudza

Holy crap y'all https://youtu.be/6SNkjkACRVQ

Thomas A. Dennis

omg thinking about a cow playing the bass version of Eruption now *brain explodes*

SpookyPenguin

Martin gonna 'splode.

Doug DeJulio

But the tone...!

Edward Clayton Andrews

idk the bass line of "Eruption" doesn't seem all that hard, it's like 5 notes ☕

Pejo

A family with chill would have saved "Burger Oni" until after the first course.

Bill Silvia

Somebody please explain to me why EVH tone is a music nerd topic plz?

Errol Lobo

I was not aware this existed. I may start defining my life as "pre Eruption Bass Solo" and "post EBS".

Every time I think this comic has hit its peak, and there isn't anything that could possibly happen in it that would make me experience the combined giggle/squee/geek-out/fist-pump/desire-to-hug-everyone/laugh emotional explosion in a way that would top previous experiences of it.... I am proven wrong again. I love every single thing about this.

FeyOne

Van Halen is hardly indie, though...

Patrice M Christian

GODDAMMIT MARTEN! QUIT THE MUSIC GEEKERY AND GO FOR THAT THREESOME EVERYONE KNOWS YOU'RE FANTASIZING ABOUT RIGHT NOW!

Yelling Bird

She is truly living her best life

Nicolas Demers

Hurray! Indie Music 🎶 still on QC!!! 🎵

Todd Ellner

is this arc gonna be Marten being in full music nerd mode while Aurelia is in vtuber nerd mode, just both of them talking in sentences that make 0 since to claire (or me). becuase if so that would be extremlly funny. the most confusing dinner of Claires life.

Rat

On the one hand this is really cool. On the other hand, this sent my evil writer brain sever weird places I'm not allowing it to explore. Neat.

Thomas Halpin

Of all the people I expected to have zero chill about all this, it wasn't Marten.

Anthony Gaglianese

Potential mother-in-law included, Marten hit the cool parent jackpot

You can tell Aurellia is a serious heavyweight. She's playing a 5-string bass!

Simon Green

Probably not, considering how private they both are about the streaming stuff. Should make next year's TwitchCon fun though.

drone r0m-3

Next week they are forming a band. Calling it now. ;)

The only thing I parsed out of that sentence was BurgerOni.

drone r0m-3

Epic battle between Aurelia and Marbear in the offing!! I wonder if their online personas know who their real life counterparts are.

Michael Boettger

We haven't gotten to see music nerd Marten for forever! This'll be fun.

Tannerbot

Oh Aurelia.

NEED COMIC OF HER PRACTICING
