Hey guys, quick question. What bass does the bassist for The Roots use on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon? I don't have any pics of it, but if you've seen the show I am sure that you know what I am talking about. Thanks! |

Edit...found this.
Yep. That's a Callowhill.

I love the (J)unk basses.. I will have one someday, as my name is Jordan, and I used to be Junk.

Callowhill.net got switched to www.callowhillguitars.com. Same boring site, new address. The specs on Owen's bass are fairly complicated, he posted about them on here somewhere previously... |

You still have callowhill.net in your profile, unless you've changed it in the last few minutes. |
