OMG I'm In Love!!!

Awesome, but if any bass player showed up in studio or gig with this, for anything other than a music for musicans thing, I'd say this guy doesn't get it and say buh bye. But I feel that way about 90% of "awesome" bass design.

Better tell Kevin Walker that- he uses these Brubaker singlecuts live with Justin Timberlake- I'm sure he'd appreciate the info :D
 
This bass would totally help business if you did a gig at a bakery or Tim Hortons. I don't care if you like it or not, I want the thing. I just don't have an extra $2550 to spare right now. Man if I did though, look out!!! Coming to a Dunkin Donuts near you!!!

No offense but upon reading that the first thing that came to mind was that maybe someone else doesn't get it.
:D

If a guy shows up with a washboard to the studio and gets the job done in stellar fashion the problem is...?


The guys looking at him.
:D

Listening with your eyes is a problem many people have. Fortunately I have gigs and studio work where I can show up, do what I do and get paid. Because I didn't get hired for what my basses looked like. Guess I'm one of the lucky ones;)

For as much as musicians like to think of themselves as individuals, it's funny how many seem content to work in a box and let others blaze a trail that they might later follow. Don't set a trend, just follow when it's good and safe.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Kevin knows his more out there finishes push the envelope. It's fun to do, that's why he does it. Some people dig it, some don't... as it should be.
:cool:
