So what's the eyebrow about?

I hope Benard stays away from that wacky tobaccy. Watching the news today, it seems the Beebs can be a bad influence.

That's an amazing quilt but way-overpriced for a Euro. $3500 puts you squarely into US-made territory.

Still, some nice drool-worthy Spector porn...

When Euros make it to Norway, because of import taxes and all that lovely stuff they end up costing $6,265.59. This is about 35,000kr. I have to pay twice the price on things I like just because of my geograhpical location, nobody had better complain about prices now.

I need to research those new glocks! I am going to try my Mesa m6 this week at the gig with the DC equipped euro which also has the us18v pre......I'm bringing the tfunk because I'm concerned that with the mega pillowy lows the Mesa brings, coupled with the DC and 18 v.....I might have too much low??? Is this possible? Lol. I will be using my Aguilar db112 and db112 NT.....for reference

Yikes!
So you could SAVE money by flying to the US and going home with a Spector as your carry-on, no?
Or would they still nail you with the import fees upon arrival home??

They could nail me with it on the way back, but they have to prove it and so do I. It's a risky situation. The best thing to do is go with an old bass, sell it over there and come back with the new one. Then you've got the records of leaving with a bass

But you're right. I could indeed save some cash. If I had a place to sleep that wasn't a hotel and I bought used

I've got a couch in Seattle to trade for a lunch & some lessons while you're here. BassNorthwest (where I bought my Spector) is 2miles away,
+ there's 3 Guitar Centers within 20. Not to mention pawn shops a few other Mom & Pop guitar places with some great stuff.
Surely my Wife will understand if it's Spector/Bass related Summertime is spectacular here
