Quick test on SIT Power Wounds and David E. set. I changed the A string on each bass and couldn't tell anything drastic. If there is a difference, it's very small (at home), and the PWs might have more mid-mids and the David E's more more low mids and maybe more lows. But a difference is not very noticeable, if it actually exists. If so, it confirms Ken's thought that they are the exact same string. A real test (string change and live use) may reveal something, but at this point I'm inclined to agree with Ken. I don't get there not being some difference, as that just seems silly to put a different albite famous name on plan Power Wounds, but marketing doesn't follow typical logic.
 
This Jolana Discobass body is on its way to me:

Excellent! Any minute differences you hear could also simply be one being a little more used than the other.
 
it sucked back then when I lived in RI as well….for me, it just needs to be ice cold..
I worked rehabbing an old building in Providence that became a bar. After it was up and running we still had more to do so at the end of the day we'd all go in and have $1 16oz Black Label cans. I remember liking those more than 'Gansetts. I think 16oz of Narragansett is to much. I kind of agree with @Chucky Stiletti here...
 
No crust or said nicotine.
None.

Not my style to send anything contagious. :roflmao:




This would have been Beck Bogert & Appice's second album, Bogert was a big hero of mine, so was Appice, actually so was Beck :laugh:. It's really too bad they didn't finish this, I think it would have been way better than their first. The second tune is a little slow but I think it's Bogert playing an upright which I've never heard before.
It's available online, if you know where to look ;). It RAWKS.



Another good one off the aborted album:

Is The Call still open? I saw Entwistle there with his band in 1999, the day after they played Sir Morgan's Cove in Worcester.

There Last Call/The Call closed quite a few years ago.
I did a benefit there for a drummer friend who got sick... Billy was the manager, I called him one night and asked about using the place. He asked the owner and it was on. They were fine folks as far as I'm concerned. They asked for nothing... They did get some advertising. Had a mess of good bands, gave away an eight person hookah, sex toys, belly dancing lessons... It was a cool event.
Anyway yeah. There's a place called Miramar there now.
