    The devil went down to Georgia...

    When did the devil ever play a solo? The only reason it sounds good when he plays is the band of demons, and only the bassist demon is good. Probably why you like it, not because of the fiddle, but because it's got a kick ass bass line. Johnny plays some real solo stuff that's great. (By the...

    "Legacy" fret club.

    Assuming you also have at least 1 legacy fret bass, #10. No extra credit for 2 legs, or being able to see.

    "Legacy" fret club.

    Kopio, #9 Do they actually make a multi scale fretless? It would not qualify for the .0 here.

    "Legacy" fret club.

    dutchwife #6.0 Making it up as we go. If you have 2 strings or less add 0.2 to your member number for extra credit. Fretless can add 0.0. As in Dutch wife #6.0 Twinjet gets #7

    "Legacy" fret club.

    Its from the fanned fret post. Someone referred to "legasy" frets. Meaning normal, not fanned frets. Figured why not run with it. Maybe in 10-15 years we will be as useless and outdated as 4 string fenders with 20 frets.

    Stuck on what bass to buy, need opinions

    No experience with ESP, but I do love my Ibanez. Only issue I see, is the finish on mine scratches very easily. Not sure if that's the same in the 605 or not, but something to consider. Although being such a light color it probably wont show as much. I played the new Ibanez talman, low end model...

    What bass[es] are you wielding this last weekend in Jan 2016?

    No pics on this computer (at work) but I'm using the Ibby 505 and the Sub-1 this Sunday morning. My BL doesn't care for the fretless tone :(

    Yes or No ?

    How else would you get all that tort on the front? The configuration is nice. A friend has an american standard strat. He wanted some pickups with more punch. So he ordered a drop in made by and identical to the one a popular guitarist uses, swapped it out in a matter of minutes. This way, he...

    Sometimes I ponder Leo's decision to fit his basses with only 20 frets...

    Beat a dead horse? why not? Be honest, how many songs do you play that go up there? Maybe jamming out or soloing you do, but I mean when you are just playing a song. Thumping out roots and adding some color. Considering the music styles back then, the bass was walking a few lines on the low end...
