[ModuMan]

First bass owned: Hohner B-2 Steinberger copy. I sooooo wanted a Steinberger... I even cut out the Steinberger logo from their catalog and glued it in place over the Hohner logo. Moved the strap button to the back so I could emulate the look of the strap harness. I later gave the bass away (after removing the logo).

First line learned... either Little Green Bag (lot of open strings and 3rd fret) or Working Man (same thing).
