that's what our singer says! Quite often I am... by set 2. I need some liquid courage but then I'm up front dancing and getting the crowd pumped. That night I was going to be careful. That was the DJs first gig.
Thinking of which, she needs a name. I've named all of my favorite axes.

Fretless..."Smooth Operator"?

I usually give my basses a lady's name. There's been Tracy (JO26), Anya (Fretless JO), and Ivy (Glaub).

You people with your silly names.

As of 7/10 it was 6-8 weeks out.

so I'm not the only one who has had a very long wait. Didn't you order it this time last year?

On the plus side, my fretless is shipping back to me today.

No I waited. I ordered it in Jan 09. So it'll be an 8-9 month wait if all goes according to schedule. I changed the neck to short scale in the beginning of june.

Thanks Evan. I'm looking forward to it too. I can almost taste it. Still gathering the funds though. If it's delayed a little more I won't mind. Can't wait to see your SB fretted DJ either.

I was using flats the whole time... turns out that it wasn't a big deal. It just needed a heavier coating, but Carl didn't epoxy it.They looked like cracks, but weren't. Good news.

Ah...cool. I'm going to try Chromes first, or another bright flat, and see how it goes. You're using DR Highbeams?

 

[mattygbass]

im having second huge thoughts on refinishing my 4-94.i was supposed to drop it off yesterday and some stuff came up. then i brought it to practice last night and after putting some new dr lowriders on there, im getting more of the sound im looking for.

so....im just not thinking that i should mess with the refin at this point.

ive gone back and forth about 10 times on it. not only that but he uses nitro there and im not sure i wasnt to go that route.

 

[JEDI BASS]

Nitro is SOOO soft!

 

[E-Mac]

I'd like a nitro finish on my basses. That's just me
