Nope. Neither is speeding, but that hasn’t stopped everyone.
oh that explains a lot
by the sound of playing it and from quick searching and reading, there is really no point in changing these pickups. thru my 700rb and ampeg svt 215 it sounds rad!
Yeah, I had to stash mine when I was up there for a week in 81-or 82(?)
TBird shot (shoes dude!)...
BTW - I was playing out with the guys the other day in a garage jam session wearing my casual shoes of choice (GOlukai slip on loafers, very comfortable, highly recommend them if you have wide feet)...
When our guitar player showed up in a pair of these...
He likes em, says they're comfortable and I guess hipster kinda stylish if you're into that scene.
Obviously his feet aren't that long. I didn't ask him, because I didn't want to put him on the spot, but it seems like they'd be tricky to get around in with all those extra inches of toe length. Anyone here into the long shoe? Any advantage or is it just a style thing?

More chances for me to trip or catch something and send it flying.
Dang! Who's standing between you and the bass?..
I have tapes on my Eppi Goth and it sounds fantastic. And I had EB Cobalt flats on my Eppi VP which sound phenomenal. Don't be afraid to try different strings on the Bird, it's a very dynamic bass and responds completely different with different strings. I have P basses and Jazz basses that obviously sound different with different strings but not nearly as much a difference as I notice with my TBirds.
Funny you mention, he had to come straight from work for the shoot and forgot his guitar so we scrounged that strat....usually plays a choice 68 tobacco sunburst SG..The Strat looks the odd one out

I know you knew. I wanted to make certain he knew, ya know?I know! Just curious.
For the longest time I was all about boxy skate shoes. Then this past year I bought a pair of Vans and Chucks... then when Nike was having a huge sale I bought two different pairs of Chucks with better soles... haven’t looked back
Agreed. I have LaBella Black tapewounds on my Goth Bird and I love the sound!
