Maybe his school has a Hyperbolic Time Chamber?

I think Robert Trujillo might think so... ;)

I'm sure (at least I hope) this has been posted already, but: Steve Harris - Iron Maiden P Bass, BadAss II bridge, Rotosound flats Uses a custom preamp but his backup is a Trace Elliot

Ohhhhhhh ok. I can now seem to recall a mental image of this kind of string. I told you I ain't no big-city string expert :D

It's my opinion that there are few scenarios where rounds/flats NEED to be used (i.e. playing with a pick and/or with distortion and high presence for rounds and thumping/super warm bass for flats). In the vast majority of situations I think flats and rounds do an equal job. Personally I never...

Short of frets? Who are you, John Myung?

I'm assuming that knob is for tone? Check out my exposed balls.
