    NBD: Epiphone Jack Casady Blue Royale

    Nice! They are great basses. I have had my gold top for about 8 years and still love it! Was that price with the case included? String her up with some blue steels , you'll have a grand piano. Good job!

    New matte black 4003 coming?

    I love ric guitars and basses ! I honestly have to say that I'm not turned on though .... I'm sure there are many others that love it though... That's the beautiful thing about having choices... At least RIC is starting to come up with choices lately. So that is awesome !

    Avoiding Swamp... errr... Sweaty Buttocks

    I usually use a small pancake compressor with an air hose running from behind my rig to my backside. I use a black one as the fluorescent orange ones are a bit to noticeable on stage. Set the compressor to about 5 psi. Run the hose right down the back of your pants and let her rip... Believe it...

    Things you want to say on TB, but shouldn’t

    Gee! This thing sounds so much better when you play it above the 12th fret!

    What's the best bass Gibson ever made? (Hyper subjective content)

    Yes Sir! Just like that! I also could not stand the cheesy TRC, so I got this silver one that simply says Les Paul.

    Boiling your strings - have you done it?

    Yes, I have done it a few times. It does work. As for how long? I dunno.. I guess I just wanted to try it to see if it really worked.
