I am sure that almost everyone here knows about the Peavey Cirrus and have heard/seen Maurice Fitzgerald killing on Fred Hammond's "I Want My Destiny (Live)". Here is another amazing clip featuring an amazing bassist playing an amazing bass: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSW3y...eature=related

More to follow I'm sure from more astute TB'ers. |

some folks are just plain fiscally irresponsible (among other things  )...
I've had more than a couple of "borrow" deals go sour on me...
it's a great thing that Brad got his bass back...
I've lost a lot more than a Brubaker in terms of personal property to more than one shady character. One is now dead, so I don't think I can take the issue much further.  Another, well...I'm just now learning to just "let it go"...live and learn...  |

It's pretty sad, isn't it? |

Guess we have to be content with the groove mix and deal with some controversy.

Don't want to offend anyone. Just in my opinion and in my taste, that tone just doesn't work.
