It looks pretty cool, but it just doesn't look "Mike Watt" to me. But I guess Watt's a better judge of that!
I'd rock it, if I wasn't in love with the P I've already got.

I will not buy one, I'll stick with my Gibson.

or this | For years (Minutemen, fIREHOSE), Watt played a Tele-styled bass w/ PJ pickups.
He's stated in the past that he gravitated to the EB-3's because of the more comfortable (to him) 30" scale.
Sounds like he's possibly going for a "best of both worlds" scenario...

or this | Right now Watt's main bass is the Michael bass. It's a custom made EB style with a single P pick up.  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
