THIS! I'm so lucky to live in the same town where Taylor, Jeff Sipe and Mike Seal choose to play regularly. Glad to have you 'local' now, Taylor! Sounded great at Highland the other week!

I was reviewing an old Oct'95 show Hellborg and Lane did with Kofi Baker last night and it inspired me to hunt down a couple of pictures of the bass from that era which I once owned. It's a tiny bass (kind of reminded me of the Washburn Nuno guitar), but it sounds fantastic. The four 9V batteries gave it plenty of headroom for sure! In the end however, I was getting similar tones out of my modded G&L and the real estate for the techniques I generally use just wasn't available on the Jonas.
Thought I'd share some shots since there seems to be very few of them out there in the cybersphere...

nice job - JB tune as an instrumental - used to play a lot of stuff like this
My brother who plays guitar, was big into Shawn Lane. He turned me on to this trio.
I seen them a lot in the 90's. They always delivered big time. Great Band.

I really like Jonas and would love to see some transcriptions/tab (boo hiss!) for his chordal work. I know he did a book on bass chords but to help learn how to apply them some examples would be great. I have The Word which is rally interesting, but the more straight up fusion stuff (relatively speaking) doesn't interest m as much.
Sometimes though I do wonder: justbuy an acoustic guitar and play that! :

I don'tD get how he does that fast slap stuff. He doesn't do that double thumping. I've never understood how people play that fast using thumb and finger.
