Skater from the "Dogtown" days. For you kids that means my skateboards have a nose and a tail. At 48 I dont skate as much as I used to but I amd teaching my 8 year old how to skate. Thats me skating a ditch in Pa.

It sets up quick but I like the babicz better.

The "Nessie" is finishedLink Removed. I added the Hipshot transtone bridge. The neck came off a Schecter SGR. It had a black headstock I had to strip that down and refinish it with Gel Stain to match the bocy. The Tuners are Gotoh "gold" and the truss rod cover was a hand made walnut cover for a...

This started out as an $80 GC buy. I'ts got Fender American pots,wiring and jack, SB-3 quarter pound pickup, Babicz bridge Hipshot tuners and a new maple jazz neck and a black pick guard.. Right now it's my main player. What I like about the affinty is it's thinner then standard p-bass and...

Thanks for the help! It looks like a Tom Martinson bass.:hyper:

1st I'll do is replace the pot, see is that makes a difference with the tone. I'll try and post some pics by the weekend. Thanks for the feedback! :D

IMO Frank Bello is what makes Anthrax "HEAVY" . Their guitars are very thin and tinny ( not like a tube sound like Metallica). Listen to "I am the Law" it's a real good example of what I'm talking about. ALSO He is a finger bassist that I would put up against any picker listen to "Got the Time"...

I just picked up a Chaos core 4 string made in Korea. It's in almost mint shape except the treble pot is real scratchy and noisy. This was going to be a "GRAIL" bass for me ( I wanted one of these even before I got my Arrays). Man was I dissapointed, This bass has almost no tone what so...
