The truth hurts

Played this bass again at rehearsal last night, a good set of TB Plus is really impressive, would not trade these out for any others.

I’m sorry, I wasn’t paying any attention, did you just say something?

Changed the crop of your avatar photo to level the playing field?

Don't make me start posting baklava and stuffed dates again.

An accident. Whether happy and little I leave to the viewer's surmise.

Miles, you've never looked better!

So running my Classic Pro Thunderbird into my Mesa TT-800, into headphones from that amplifier produces strong overdrive, but with the lower output 'Heckinhecker' (Ric pups and harness) does not. I guess that's just the way of it...

Kinda not understanding this one. The TT produces plenty of overdrive, depending on settings, speakers, etc., although colored with the bit of bloom from the trithube preamp.

Certainly not since i was under 25!

A fun read involving a pre-eminent birder.

“I’m just standing there strumming a chord. And the audience looks at me and goes, ‘How does he produce that noise?’” Pete Townshend on the Who's real lead guitar player

The Who's guitarist and bassist said their inadvertent switching of the lead guitar and bass roles confused fans, while it defined the Who's sound

The difference in output between those two basses is notable. I have found the output of the Classic Pro to be pretty hot.

Well, I know you’re kidding. He’s a good friend with a “distorted“ sense of humor at times. Like all of us.

Fluted sounds interesting. Do you have a photo example of this?

You’ve not seen /\/\3, y’all don’t stand a chance ;-)

In '77 all of that was about 40 years in the future

It got better, but I still miss the Ricky.

My quest for one that chooses me will continue. Martin played one on the early albums. And of course there’s Squire. McCartney played one, although it never sounded like one on the albums. An iconic California classic that I’ll own one of these days.

Yep. Belongs a part of every Thunderbird player’s flock.
