Hey Stephen, bass looks great, man the figured neck back is sick. I'm pretty sure you're going to dig the Red Tort guard, did
you go with Terrapin? Merry Christmas, Rick

Hey Rick,
Yes, I talked with Mary at Terrapin and sent them my black PG.
I just like being able to actually speak to a real live person so choice #2 really wasn't an option for me.

Just put some Circle K balanced strings on my Big AL 5.
124-94-70-53-37
Really really liking how these feel and play.
Almost feel like flats and have a slightly less aggressive sound than typical rounds.
So far, I am really liking them!

I HAD two Big Al SSS4's and a Reflex HSS4...
Really sucks I let them go
They were awesome basses.
The stupid things GAS does to us
I get no sustain joy from my Big Al... I wouldn't say it's dead exactly, but the notes tend to die pretty quickly. esp. on my E string. Any suggestions? The strings are not exactly new but are very well-maintained (I clean it pretty much after every time I touch it).
