That pedal is unique. I had the nano version and modded it to have the 2 internal trimpots accessible from the outside, making it easier to try different settings. I read that the nano version was less prone to volume spikes than this larger version, but I can't attest to that.

Interesting article. Such lists are always questionable, but what is not with this list is it mentions great players.

Makes me wonder about Stringjoy strings. Anyone ever played them?

I’ve used string joy for about 2 years now. I use their balanced light strings on my electric guitars and a custom gauge that I use on my old 6 string Warwick bass. I’ve never had any issues with breakage and they seem to last a long time. Though lately I’ve been on a DR kick. I would recommend giving them a shot

nice store! Brooklyn?

GC, 14th between 5th and 6th.
Manhattan.

The neck was shot.

Not long after I moved back from PDX.

I remember that pic! I think it was the 1st seeing what you looked like - GC I take it, or Mannies?

GC, and you remember correctly Geo.

You and @hillerup set me straight back then.

Was just a novice. Still am.

A 2019 white Epi Vintage Pro showed up locally for sale and I pounced on it. Been playing all night. Great bass. You could use the headstock to paddle a jon boat.

One of my favorite foods is next day cold pizza with pulpy orange juice - yum!

It's best with a cold beer for breakfast

They included Tedesco, so I’m happy.

So when we are in Seattle at your place for the second annual "Birds of a Feather" T-bird convention this year, will we be testing that? (I'll bring the pulpy orange juice)

I thought it was cold fried chicken?

Cold fried chicken and cold pizza with pulpy orange juice and cold beer sounds absolutely orgasmic!

Andy Irvine has a pretty good play around on an Epi VP - 20 minutes or so.
He says he hasn't been a T-Bird/Gibson guy but apparently he loves it already and he only just got it. The guy has a lot of basses.
