    Conrad EB-3 copy

    I used to sell Conrads & Pencos & whatever that 3rd brand name was from that distributor when I worked for Franklin's in the mid-70's. I don't recall seein' an EB-3 copy with a bolt neck. Was this maybe later 70's or early 80's? Not a real varitone 4 position just a 3 position but it is a...

    Been gone a few months, but, back for now. Yippeeee! It IS an all solid woods bass! I WILL try to get some pics ASAP, still lotsa other chores to get done. But, the worst thing is that it has a 3/4 size bridge with the feet shaved off. Yecch. But, my bass buddy went apesh*t over it & said...

    Thanx, JM. Do you think I'm OK with the hundreds of speakers in the house? And, after my experience with the wheelchair guy, should I have had my device checked?

    Alrighty, then! What shall we call it? A nice, simple ICD Club? My friend(he's also a music buddy) that is most likely to go river swimmin' with me is epileptic, thus, he's also under strict orders not to go alone. It's always been me to monitor him. We just talked about this a coupla...

    Double Bass 1/2 vs. 3/4 from a noob!

    Well, I'm not thrilled with hammered dulcimer music, but, I'll give you some good advice, anyway. Just get an ABG. You say the bass use will essentially be for recording, so, I think you'd just be puttin' up a lotta dough & takin' up your limited space with a DB. AND, an ABG will come with a...
