Hello all,
I just watched American Idol, and in the first song of the show (Taylor’s [the guy with the grey hair] first song) the bass player from the band was playing on the stage. 
I’m not positive what bass he was playing, but if my life relied on it, I would say it was an Ibanez Artcore, but I’m probably wrong…
I was just excited to see the bass player playing on the stage, the front man.  |

I caught a glimpse of it. At first I thougt it was the guitarist with a 335. Maybe it was an Artstar.... does Ibanez make f-hole basses?
.. Just checked out the Ibanez site... I don't think it was an Artcore series.

Guild Starfire either.
I'll have to take a look.
Yuck, I hate reality shows.
OTOH just let me know when you guys figure it out,
those shows are just too painful for me to watch.

| | | | I watch it. I've been a singer for over 40 years and I have to say the contestants on there now are really talented. They may sometimes do material I don't like but they are good singers.
Paula is always a treat to watch, I don't know what medication she's on but she looked like she was really out there last night.

My regrets for thinking it was a Gretsch. It must just be my lust and GAS for a Gretsch hollow body bass that made me think it was.
