So, since I didn't need a 5er for that kinda stuff, I grabbed an already packed away 4 string with a P/J setup, should have done the trick.
I arrive, and set up the DAW etc, we record the guitar track first(I know, odd order, but for us it works), and next I pop out my bass...
The guitarist looks dissapapointed...
"Hey, where's your 5er man? I thought you'd bring that, we could use the low B......."
So yeah, don't forget your Roscoes, your guitarists will love you for it.

You crack me up Jerry! I wondered where you were going with that!
As silly as it sounds, JC's Live at Folsom Prison album is still on my top 10 list. Not because of the bass tone (or playing). Just because JC is so cool in that gig!
..........My mama always told me, never play with guns,
but I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die!  |

Sling it cross my back an' I could walk to Texas.  (Take me 10 years though)
God Bless, Ray
