Noice! camo-job with the composition of that pic. Got any shots with that flake' dazzling in the Sun? or at least against a background with a wee'bit'o' contrast? 
Not that Kev, is prolly complaining.
besides, there is being green with envy- which was intentional, you so naughty.

Yeah. I have one that does, one that doesn't.I'd say that's entirely up to the player

This is the only other shot I have of it right now, in sunlight the metalflake turns yellow-green, it's a stunningly beautiful bass in person - craftsmanship is second to none. I feel very fortunate to have it as they're are only 56.
Oh yeah, at least it compliments the green Subaru now. LOL!

When I was pretty young I got a copy of "Fire and Water", which was my introduction to Andy Fraser and later on Gibson basses.
I love his big, woofy bark on this, an utterly brilliant player at a very young age - Marshalls + Gibson!

Just so happens Fretted Americana, still has a clip up of my 1961 EBO woof, woof, woof.
It's a seriously nice piece of kit.
The Resonance on the Traynor is dimed for maximum 'sag' but with the HPF on, the sub-bass mush is gone.

There are basses, and there are Thunderbirds!
Went to see Apocalyptica play Metallica for 4 Cellos last night...
That was absolutely amazing! Totally metal koncert vibe!!!
This is a show from Hellfest last year:
If you guys ever have the chance to see them - I suggest you do... I was blown away by them live, and the audience gave them several standing ovations.

Totally respect what they do and glad you really enjoyed it, Michael.
It's just not for me... I want to hear the music I love and grew up with done the way I've always heard it.
Matter of fact, there's nothing I dislike more than a favorite band doing a live performance of its own music and not staying close to the studio recording. I mean, you can throw in a, "Does anybody remember laughter?" here and there but please don't add weird instruments and solos... not a fan.

That's fvcking cool!!
I agree, I don't like when the band differs from the studio version too much, and I wouldn't go a festival just to see Apocalyptica. But if they were playing a small theatre near me, I'd definitely try to get tickets. I think seeing them in a theatre would be much cooler.
Sweet, I have one being posted to me as well.
Not too long ago I was wondering where Sartori had gone. Then I got hip to the fact that he had changed his name to Korladis but still noticed he wasn't around. I'm sure people come and go all the time but I was just on the Winter build thread and this caught my attention.
Anyone know what happened to make this happen?
Just curious...

Noticed he got suspended awhile back. Not sure why though. Always had great exchanges with him
For me, some were(great), most weren't.
Bit my tongue a few times to keep the peace because you know what they say about arguing on the internet, right?
