Off-topic babble.... I just had to laugh.... After the Oingo Boingo frivolity this past week, I received a "Black Friday" sale email, which caused me to look at this...... Invalid Link Removed. Kind of like the overall look.... Not sure about the 3+1 headstock.....
The 3n1 is trademarked by EBMM. I love the tech of The Gamechanger, but for what I do, it's sort of wasted. I*'s incredibly versatile and can do just about anything...which is why it hasn't been as successful. Most of us only need and want a few sounds, not all of them. That said, I LOOOOVE EBMM basses.
 
That was waaaay too easy. Im thinking that because its not a Bird its gonna need a really off the wall initiation like weve never discussed around these parts before. Like a picture of the proud owner standing outdoors wearing nothing but his Gibson as people get along with their day all around him. Just for starters.

Actually, for starters, should be reading the past 500 pages. Then a test. And not multiple choice.....
 
Shoulda gone for the royalties dude -- would still be paying, eh?
I guess I should have hired an agent. I never received a physical copy of the movie so I had to record it off television and I didnt even see my name in the credits. Could have been so much more than a handsome face in a bass forum.;)

Cool story for y'all.
About a year or so I bought a dead SVT Cl of a guy to use as a stage prop. For our video I had 1 real heritage and 3 dummy's on 4 cabs. I bought it for $150 and took out the guts. The tech said he messed with it for a long time and could not get it to work.

I sold my svt to get my GK 2001 and haven't used the dummy head. So, about a month ago a was looking at it and thought, "I wonder". I found all the parts and reassembled the head. I took it to our local guru Dean Zink. I wasn't too hopeful.

Got a call today, (been 3 weeks) and he said it's working perfectly, good to go! Hauled ass over and picked it up! Works perfect!!!

So, completely dead amp...1 bad zeaner diod, $2. $130 for the 3 days it took to figure out and it needed all new tubes.

For $600 I have a mint shape, new tube having, rockin amp! Woo! BTW, $1800 new.

That my friend is the "best idea" ever!. One should research the history to earn their way in but only after a round of skill testing questions followed up with a final math quiz:thumbsup:.

And then, and only then, depending on how new said member scored on the test, it will then be determined by the collective as to what the proper initiation should be.
