Cool rock n roll photos

[roccobass]

I always thought this was a cool homage to Chris.

From Styx's Lawrence Gowan:

I took this photo (fuzzy though it appears, due to a shaky photographer) of Chris Squire's bass as it lay side stage awaiting his hands during our tour with Yes in 2011. Standing alone next to Chris' bass that day, I stared at it a long time realizing how much I revered him and this relic. Since I was a teenager dreaming of a life in music, all the wondrous magic he'd conjured from this instrument had made such an impact on my life! Thank you, Chris Squire. May your music live forever!

And the Ripper has a 34-inch scale. Looks heavy, though.

Good to know. But your photo is of a tapered edge, and the middle of the body is thicker? How thick does it measure at that edge? What type of wood is it?

I recall Carol switched because of back or shoulder problems.

Two Jazzmaster manipulators, Kevin Shields and J Mascis…

But whew, both of those guys are just a few years younger than me, and looking at that shot made me feel like I wasn't so elderly after all.

Ridden hard and put away wet.
