Well, I applaud his restraint in not going overboard in the electronics department.

Yeah, you can tell he comes from the "less is more" school of thinking!

Those 9ners look like they'd belong to Jabba the Hut.

One thing I noticed in that pic is his left hand...looks kinda scrunched up, almost like he has bad thumb position.

I think the entire him looks scrunched up, just look at his face!

 

[lobster_boy]

Is he actually playin or jus holdin it because i noticed he's not wearin a strap, maybe thats why he looks so darn uncomfortable.

Judging by his hat, I'd say we just found Waldo.

jean is cool, and a great player. he's been having bill conklin build him another nine, this one with fanned frets and a pac man inlay in the fretboard. he should be getting it soon - he ordered it around the time that i ordered my fretted 8 string.

i didn't think nuclear rabbit was still around. they have a tune called disgruntled temp of the apocalypse that's really cool.

 

[Erlendur Már]

Yeah, Jean Baudin is really cool, I often wonder why he doesn´t fall down while playing..

 

[john turner]

i just found his new band's website, www.eosband.com .

 

[phogchris]

Yeah, his new band is called Element of Surprise, very unique and alot easier to listen to than Nuclear Rabbit, although I like NR a bit better...you should definitely go to www.eosband.com and read his bio, i doubt he has any problems with technique, he has studied with Jason Becker, Marty Friedman, and Wally Voss, all spectacular musicians!!

hey dude, i was wondering where you got to. what's up with the primer-55 gig?

 

[phogchris]

I decided that they weren't treating me very well, professionally, so I left. I joined a band out of VA called SEV, they are on Geffen records and I am having a blast!!!

[lo-end]

whoa, you were in primer 55? cool!

 

[looneybin117]

THAT'S INSANE

 

[slipknot229]

WHY IN THE UNHOLY HELL WOULD YOU WANT A BASS WITH NINE (NINE! FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD!!!!) STRINGS!!??? IT BOGGLES MY MY MIND! IM GETTING A HEADACHE JUST THINKING ABOUT CONSIDERING PLAYING THAT THING!!!

 

[John Davis]

Broader range of sound.

 

[slipknot229]

BUT STILL, NINE!!??

 

[Dirty Road Cola]

If 9 strings is what he needs to express himself musically, 9 strings he shall recieve. I think it'd just be hard as heck to mute all the strings on that thing, especially when slapping and Mr. Baudin does quite a bit from the NR that I've heard.

 

[looneybin117]

All I can say is holy sh!t. I mean 9 strings is f ing amazing.

 

[Muttluk]

how bout 12? and its not one with octive strings... well some of the strings are the same...

I kinda think the one in the one on the left is strung like a 6 string guitar on the top six strings, then like a 6 string bass on the bottom six strings. on the guitar in the middle, i've got no clue....

JT, you were over at namm, did you get a chance to check these out? i'm interested how a multi string vet. like you handled a bass like this if you played one, i thought your 8 fret board looked like an aircraft carrier, this looks worse...
