Going to the R&R HoF this weekend, any good bassist stuff?

Sign in to disble this ad
My band is stopping off up in Cleveland for a show this Saturday, but we're geting to the area early on in the day. My guitarist wants to visit the R&R Hall of Fame.

I haven't been there since i was 12. That was pre-bass time, so i'm sure the thing as a whole will be a 'new' experience.

But, i was just wondering if there are any good bass(ist) exhibits?

In the Led Zeppelin exhibit, they have John Paul Jones' stage rig with electric piano, and the silly outfit with the Christmas ornaments that he wore in The Song Remains the Same.
