It looks like something Phil Lesh would have played.

Or Jack…

Hey y’all! Number please - it was nice meeting everyone, that was a lot of fun.

Great meeting you, Dave. I’m glad you could make it!

 

[Miles_ONeal]

Were they Nasty?

Not that I noticed, but they are habit-forming.

 

[Miles_ONeal]

The chicken head impedance three way still works for the Casady part?

Phenomenally so.

 

[Miles_ONeal]

That is your Fenderbird? It is spectacular.

It is. And it’s even more spectacular in person. There’s enough clear coat to give it a real sense of depth. Like falling into n MCU portal into a parallel bassierse.

Or, as @DJ Bebop noted, Jack Casady. His preferred bass for some key Airplane time was a Guild Starfire (later heavily modded), so this is a mix of both worlds.

I'm a big fan of the Darkstar pu's - best sounding single-coil bass pu's out there available through Guild and Novak.

Talk about L-O-N-G basses!

Great meeting you, Dave. I’m glad you could make it!

Great meeting you as well Miles - what a great gathering! Wish I could have stayed longer, it was a fun time.
