A "boxey thud". Wow.
"Upright look". Gee.
"Cimate changes". Darn.

I must have missed the point of the reply - this is an honest post looking for valid replies.

bump.. thanks.

Looks as if the EUB is in the mail..

Can't decide if the Ashbory should stay..

Cool.. not sure if it's a going to be played in my obessive compulsive stable of gear...

Why are there no standard-scale Ashbory-type basses around?

 

[MNAirHead]

strings wouldn't work

That is the devil's instrument.

NO NO NO. Charlie Daniels taught us all that the devil plays the fiddle. case closed

You're right. I get paid to help folks hear with their eyes.

I get tons of work due to 6/7 strings.. only play 5

How about the music?
That first statement: "I get paid to to help people hear with their eyes" sounds a bit strange, at best. Can you clarify?
