Is this medium scale (32")?

T- Rex Bass Juice?

For me its JPJ, but yhats more because I like what Zep do better. But I certainly dig Rush too. I myself prefer Tim Bogert and Geezer

If that even sounds half as bad ass as it looks.....Wow!

I use 3. A footswitch to operate the fuzz on my Acoustic 361, an EHX Switchblade+ aby pedal to split the signal to the 361 and an Acoustic 371. With the 371 has Solid Gold FX Beta Drive. Occasionally ill use a Dean Markley Overlord with that too.

Andrew DuPlantis. Beastly tone and lines.

Jam trios? Carlton Melton, Magnog, Tia Carrera.

The Third Power

Seven That Spells

Andrew DuPlantis (sp?) played with Son Volt, but now plays in Tia Carrera. David Wm Simms from the Jesus Lizard. J.Robbins in Goverment Issue. And I just dont se Tim Bogert name enough.
