connecting those dots is a bit of a stretch...

Yes he is quite stretched isn't he?

Concerning Fender the only thing I wish they would've reissued this year is the HM Bass, considering they are reissuing the HM Strat.

and the 24 fret Performer

My feelings must betray me! I actually want an ESP!

Last time I was in Tokyo, about a year ago, I saw some of the ESP high end basses at a store, very similar to the ones in these pictures. Not at all my kind of basses, but the workmanship, details, finish were absolutely top notch, really superb. Price tags too (12-14K, if I remember correctly).

It's amazing how incredibly beautiful bass guitar design and craft has become. More so in my opinion than electric guitar. Sincere thanks scubduba for all your efforts bringing this experience to our fellowship

Thanks for the Serek posts!

I know they're not boo-teek (or even MIA anymore) but was Guild there? If so, anything new from them?

Hi LBS





Let me guess: He never recognized when you had your hair done?

Good Morning!

Nah, he was just a world-class A-hole. Great player, though. I guess that counts for something.

These ESP’s are stunning. Even if these basses aren’t your style the workmanship is amazing. Some real eye candy here.

Less expensive ESP/LTD and a Takamine acoustic.

Man, I love those Ritter’s! I would not want one to play but just looking at them, I think they’re so cool.

My thoughts exactly. Only took 40+ years to see one actually made and functional.

Still like these.

Still don't know why the guitars start at $1,500, and the basses start at $3k.

Those ESP's are incredible! Not interested in buying one, but I'd like to know how much they go for...

 

[who]

Maybe I'm missing something but I can't tell where the tuners are on that headless...?

The bass in the picture underneath is a different one. I thought they were the same too, but the headless is a 6 string and the other one is a 5.

I think he's playing the "Let's Go Way Out". song!
