Check out this picture, from the Catalinbread website:
The guy on the right here, who is he? I'm thinking Meldal-Johnson maybe, with NIN? But I can't be sure. Somehow this dude reminds me of Bob Dylan, but I don't recall him playing a black 'n' mapled, black block inlayed, cream pickup colored beaut of a bass. Also, the pic seems too recent for him to be so young.
