    Tech 21 Bass Fly Rig v2

    Mine's headed back to the dealer tomorrow. What a disappointment - the Octafilter tracks worse than any octaver I've ever tried, the chorus turns on for a full second before the tuner engages so you'd better make sure you've muted the strings before you hit the tuner (they should have made...

    The Bass Shop

    Love them - Jeff Rouse is awesome too! I’ve bought several basses and amps from them over the years. Just bought a signed Duff PJ last week from them that is just wonderful.

    Tribute bands - the cosplay of the music world?

    I'm in two tribute bands in the Puget Sound area, and you're right....many of the places locally that are really booking tributes are all-in with the 70s/80s rock tributes. My Jane's Addiction tribute draws really well in the city, out in the burbs not well as it seems those people just want Bad...

    Music Man Caprice: True Boutique Quality

    Mike is really great. I'm gonna take mine in after my show tonight for him to have before my next show later in the month. Thanks for being the beta tester for me! I'll probably have him install lighter tuners but to be honest I'm not noticing much dive.

    I haven't seen any Cutlasses around Seattle. I'd love to compare it's pup to the Caprice. I understand they are NOT the same.

    Lol I'm wine tasting in Walla Walla wine country this week... And I agree the Caprice is fantastic. My Lull, jazz, and stingray are all pissed that they're not being touched! First gig with it this Friday. Super excited to share the Caprice tones with the crowd!

    Music Man Caprice: True Boutique Quality

    Sweet! Yes there are so many usable tones with these pups that being able to easily tell position is becoming key for me. This isn't a "run at full" p-bass with some occasional treble roll-off... These pups are fantastic!

    Music Man Caprice: True Boutique Quality

    I've been trying Cobalt flats. Sounds crystal clear. Not sure I'll keep them on, I actually like how the pups sound with nickel wounds. Love this bass. Played it at volume in rock mix at rehearsal last night. Oh man. Can't wait for my next gig at the end of the month to try it out when I'm...

    I agree with the white. I also like the black on the white one. I'm not sure other than basic black what would look good to replace the tort on my burst.

    Music Man Caprice: True Boutique Quality

    I really like the sparkle white pickguard - I've got one on my blue Lull and it looks so cool under the stagelights! I love my Caprice (burst) - I agree it's very inspirational to play and the neck is just sooooo tasty - I adore its feel and the yellowed/aged color is to die for. Wide range of...
