Talk:Justin Chancellor

Bass Strap
Aw come on, I thought it was funny, and it was mentioned in one of the official newsletters? hellboy 03:04, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Yeah, funny it was. But I guess they are right... considering the information value to everbody but insiders. Don't take it harshly. =) --Johnnyw 21:52, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

Speaker size
Are you sure it's 8 inches? Most bass speakers range from 10 inches to 18... 8 inches is pretty much unheard of for bass cabinets, and according to their website, Mesa doesn't make bass cabinets with 8 inch speakers. Sitinthechair 4 April 2006
 * He doesn't use 8 inch speakers. But some manufactures do make 8 inch speaker cabinets and I've seen some custom build 4x8's and 8x8's but no that was an error and I fixed it, someone must have misunderstood what an 8x10 speaker configuration meant. -Alex June 21, 2006

New style of playing
I think the section describing Justin's "new style of playing" on 10,000 days is misleading. I really think it's just an extension and progression of what he's done in the past. He's used effects before, as well as played non-traditional parts layered with the guitar, and swapping roles with it. These things are heard in his earlier playing, particularly in Lateralus, even if one can argue that they're more prevalent now. I also don't know what's meant by saying that he plays "individual parts" on 10,000 days. What does individual refer to? If you mean something not in unison with the guitar and/or vocals, a majority of bass parts would qualify for this, even very simple ones.

Justin's equipment
There is a new Bass Player interview with Justin that also has a very thorough list of his entire equipment. Check here. -- Johnny w  talk  13:03, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Synaesthesia?
I heard somewhere that Justin is a synesthete. Can anyone confirm this? 74.245.191.214 (talk) 21:21, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I heard it too. In fact, it was even stated in this article, as well as in the article that lists well-known synaesthetes. Joost de Kleine (talk) 15:22, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Why is this no longer mentioned in the article, while the article is categorized under "People with synesthesia"? Surely there must be a few sources lurking around. (I know one, but its from cracked.com, not exactly encyclopedia material.) 99.237.200.255 (talk) 21:03, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't know if a BBC documentary would be considered a proper reference by the arsehats that moderate wikipedia these days, but they made a film on autism (synaesthesia being a form of) that mentioned him. I just did a quick search for it, but couldn't find it sadly; I'm not in the UK and BBC is kind of anal about that.
 * I'm not sure if Justin is real happy about his 'condition' being known (although as cracked.com jokes: dumb, slutty girls as far as the eye can see! What's not to like?), but it would be good to find this pseudo-scientific reference if he's cool with it... anyone in Britain care to take a shot at bbc.co.uk video archives, given these hints? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.175.228.227 (talk) 01:17, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Playing Style
There should be a section on Justin's playing style. All the other members' articles have a section on their styles, why shouldn't Justin's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.163.77.111 (talk) 23:32, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

I added a Playing Style section, let me know of any errors and dont be afraid to edit anything that isnt correct. Thanks, Kevin. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.176.221.202 (talk) 23:24, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Not that I particularly disagree with a playing style section, but I think that a lot of the info there comes under the Original Research category, something which is generally frowned upon in wikipedia. hellboy (talk) 02:48, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Justin should reserve his right to remain anonymous if he wants to and he APPARENTLY DOES! Respect goes out to him! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.234.232.24 (talk) 18:09, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
