Funny Bass Player Hats

Bass players have the best-worn joke in music: nobody notices them until they stop. The trope has its own page, Nobody Loves the Bassist, and its own jokes, like why there are bass solos (so the audience has time to talk). These hats keep the bit and add the pride. NOBODY NOTICES THE BASS PLAYER UNTIL I STOP is the whole job in one line, and a NoTreble essay makes the same point, that going unnoticed is proof the bass is doing its work. E A D G is the standard four-string tuning, and a five-string player adds a B below it, so the four-letter hat tells the room exactly what you carry. FOUR STRINGS IS PLENTY answers the five-string crowd. I'M NOT A FAILED GUITARIST takes the oldest jab in the band room and turns it into a flag. I SLAP BASS and BASS FACE are for the technique and the expression, and I PLAY THE NOTES YOU FEEL is about the part of a song you sense before you hear. Bass player gift hats and EADG hats already sell, and the biggest buyers are bandmates and partners. Every design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat. NOBODY NOTICES THE BASS PLAYER UNTIL I STOP and I'M NOT A FAILED GUITARIST each come in two colorways.
