A few weeks back I scored this Peavey TKO 65 for $75 in a local pawn shop. This was the first time I felt like I got a really good score in a pawn shop ever. The head unit was really clean, but it was missing some knobs, the chrome corners and chassis straps were rusty, and the tolex was nasty...

So last week I bought a Yamaha BB404. My first bass in 3 years. Haven't been playing due my body falling apart. I though I'd never play again so I sold all my gear. Well, it turns out I didn't have a severe case of MS or ALS, and I am getting back to good health and gaining upper body and...

After three years of no gear due to some neurological issues and a bad back and hip problems, I am finally back in the game. I got my issues sorted out well enough that I think I can get back to playing and I've been keeping an eye out for a good deal on a bass for the last few weeks. So I...

Hey guys, after battling some neurological issues and chronic hip and back pain I am happily getting back to playing bass. I sold off all of my gear about 3 years ago because it appeared that I had a degenerative illness from which I would not recover. Luckily, that wasn't the case. However...

About 4 years ago I suffered a simultaneous onset of some neurological and back/hip issues that seemed much more sinister than what they actually were. It really sucks when the doctor tells you that you have MS. Thankfully, it was a false-positive, but it still took a long time to get a proper...

I was a big Suicidal Tendencies fan in high school in the early to mid 90's, but I followed them because I loved the guitar work that Rocky George and Mike Clark laid down. They were an amazing duo, but didn't get a lot of attention. I always respected the bass work, but didn't pay a lot of...

I have been practicing as much as I can lately as time allows. Not noodling around, but focused practicing. Primarily I have been working on using my ring and pinky fingers on my playing hand to mute the strings properly and minimize noise. It's been working very well and, as a result, my...

Anybody know the specifics that Geezer used back in the day? I know that now he is a Lakland endorser. My favorite Sabbath albums are "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" and Sabotage so if you know anything about that era that would be awesome. Not necessarily trying to find his sound, I am just curious...
