Gundams and Basses never thought I'd see the two together in a store!

In seriousness, those are some WICKED Spectors in there!

Open letter is one of my favorites too, I also like playing " love rears its ugly head". It's on the album after Vivid.

One of my cover bands covered Cult of Personality a few years back and that song is a lot harder to keep together as a band than it seems.

As some of you know, Joe "Mr.Bassie720" flew from MD to AZ to support Donny's band Defy Tolerance for the CD release show.

Joe just sent me these pics. More to come.

That's really cool, I'm jealous

Also saw this Craigslist add, someone needs to investigate this. DA is one of my top bands and this would be awesome to own!!

You are right, that isn't a Spector bridge on that Nikki Sixx bird. Damn little screens on these iphones!!! However, looks like it might be "inspired" by his old Spectorbirds with the EMG PJ setup.

B3K is on the way! Got a great deal on a gently used one in the TB Classifieds.
I can't wait to hear it with my Alex Webster; the way it was meant to be!
I'm bummed that my Zoom B3 has 8 or 10 distortion / overdrive pedals, and they all sound awful.
They all sound similar; kind of a hi-fi sizzle. The only good dirty effect is the SVT emulator.
I have been working on a decent Big Black bass tone (without the Peavey T-40); that effect helps a lot.
Anyway, I'll have my B3K in a few days, and so many new possibilities with it. YAY!

Congrats! You won't be disappointed, B3K is GREAT pedal. I use it even with low drive setting to add some tube-ish dirt.

First time I used my B3K with the Webster at rehearsal the guys spoke up right away - they loved it. You shan't be disappointed!

No doubt, that is one pedal that lives up to the hype and pairs well with the Spector tone.
