Definitely a part of my concern.

Thanks for all the great info. I've jotted down a couple types to flats to try.

Pheewwww !

Thanks so much ! Ordering some D'Addario Chromes & will try adding some bridge pickup after they are installed.

So, im 62 years old & have a mint 86' Rick 4003 mapleburst that i ordered brand new back in "The Day". Back then it was perfect for me playing heavy rock/metal & a little prog stuff. when i returned to bass playing after a layoff during the young kids years, I discovered I really like...

First bass was a 77 Fender mustang. It was the only lefty I could find in Denver during the summer of 1980. Played the hell out of it till I ordered a new ric in 1984 or 5. Still have it and play it once in a while. Thought about trying the piccolo bass thing with it since its a 3/4 neck...

Got a $500 bonus just like last year. Just went and bought the Genz-Benz 4x10 Uber bass cabinet. Already had the GBE-750 amp. Now all that is left is the 1x15 bottom cab to complete my Genz-Benz stack. Woo Hoo ! ! GB has a deal going on with their dealer network. Got the 4x10 uberbass cab...

Rule number one is always bring the flask ! Nowhere that we play pays for 100% of your drinks and I needs me a couple nips before the first set. After that it's pretty much beer (plus drinks from patrons) till the end of the night ( usually ) That Being Said. We have one bar that gives us...

Wow ! You will love them live. Not only is there original material incredible but they do some of the best covers known to man ! ! Our band caught them last summer outdoors at Mishawaka ( northern Colorado ) & we immediately encorporated a few of their cover versions into our set. Even...

Wow ! The voices in your head "done good" I like it alot ! Definitely out of the ordinary but has a familiar feel to it. The first thing I thought of was that guitar that Lindsey Buckingham plays alot of the time. Not sure why, mabe the faux soundhole

Being a lefty this one is easy to answer. I always push to be stage right ( as I'm looking out ). If I'm on the left side it is just to easy to bump necks with the guitarist. If it wasn't for that it probably wouldn't matter to me as long as I could hear the kick and the hi-hat

Played a gig Saturday night. As we were tearing down, I had a conversation with my guitarist specifically about wanting to go see Dio at Redrocks this summer. Then woke Sunday to the news. Been bummed out ever since. I had no idea about the cancer. I feel fortunate I got to see him in 81/82...
