Scott's demo of the Bugera Marshall 1960 Plexi clone was a little too good........:woot:
I don't use any effects normally so I just want something to "color" the tone for the "fly rig.

The Louisville Palace was and old theater and revived several decades ago and is a popular place for concerts now. I saw BTO and Grand Funk there years ago and Joe Bonamassa a few years ago (which, did I mention, was the worst sounding concert I ever attended???).

That same Rick was on stage in Helsinki in May this year. Super show! The first set was numbers from Hackets solo production and in the second set they did the complete Foxtrot album plus Firth of Fifth and Los Endos.

same exact set list, busy tour seems like and this show was one of the last. Hackett is underrated imho….had never heard of Jonas Reingold…..great player…Jonas Reingold - Wikipedia

Steve Hackett. Damn. I would like to be there.

I may take another go at finding a Ric. I couldn’t find one I felt right with when I went trying them five or so years ago. With the ‘23’s, they supposedly revised the 4001 neck profile.

My most svelte Ric neck is a 2004 4004cii, my most chunky is a 1995 4003. the rest are middle of the road...

I can't say I'm super neck sensitive, but necks on 5 and 6 string basses have kept me away from them.

If you find the right one, they’re awesome. I plan on having another one day.

That's a first - I've never heard of painting a brass nut before. However, a T-bird with a brass nut is a good thing.

Between the new gibson 60s RI pickups for the angry piano tone, a brass nut might just enhance it all xD. Though i am content with the bone on my bird currently so no swapping there for me, xP Speaking of my bird mods, it's coming along nicely. the rear ply sheets on the wings are now level with the middle section & fully sanded. Need to fill some gaps here & there around it all, & it'll be refin'd with a white basecoat soon after, then red & thre brush on tree roots design yet again. Coming close, but still lots of work, & after looking at it with the pickups in their new routes, i will opt to get myself some rings (which i've found on ebay). I feel it'll look better with them (& also hides a bit of the imperfect route).
