Im playing thru my friends Orange Amp. 4x10 and a Orange head. Oh man, had those tubes warming up for an hour... they were toasty and tasty. Im in love with that amp. (you can also see the corner of my Boss GT-6B by the monitor speaker)

2007 MIM Fender Deluxe Active Jazz V (Modded for active/passive and spending 90% of it's time in passive)

p.s. there may already be a 5-string club. If that can be verified, then we'll just call this a duplicate and null and void it. Same goes for any of my other clubs.

Nice basses guys! I'll get member#s pm'd to you.

I sooooo want to get the fretless version of that dragonfly! It's awesome! Consider it: when you think bass guitar, the standard is four string fretted electric. And then you have the deviances from the norm: Fretless, 5+string, accoustic. You see all sorts of basses that are one of these three, and you see some that are two of these three, but only the Michael Kelly Dragonfly Fretless 5 accoustic embodies -all 3- abnormailities! That may or may not strike you as overly significant, but it does me! I really want one! And they're pretty innexpensive too!

You're #9!

While we're at it, what do you think of the modulus? I hear some really great things about them!

Me too man, me too! :-)

I think that clubs like this do a lot of good things. 1)They provide you with a sense of comeraderie with other owners. you can relate with common experiences and common perspectives. 2) They provide you with a sense of pride in what you own and place value on what otherwise may not be high value 3) They're just plain fun, and it's easy to cram-load your sig line full of club credentials too (it makes you look cool!) :)

But fair warning: I learned today that if you create too many new clubs at once, the trolls come out. They feed on responses, so just ignore them and they'll evetually starve to death. (Unless they actually post something relevant and constructive, in which case you want to answer as soon as possible)

Well, it's 2:01 here in central time, and I've got to be at church at 9. Usually it's 8 for praise team practice, but since it's the kid's christmas program this sunday, we don't play....so I get an extra hour sleep! Seeing as that it's 2 and I'm still not in bed, that extra hour is going to be a blessing! :)

If I don't talk to you again tonight, take care and God Bless!
