[quote name='SteveO' post='1289332' date='Jul 1 2011, 05:43 PM']Hey, thats just round the corner from me Not that I'm complaining because it'll be great to see you guys again, but given that there is a huge KISS fan base over here how come you're only playing one gig in scandanavia?[/quote] It's the only one we've been invited for at the moment - because it's a special 'Eric Carr tribute' Expo....

I have 3 rigs & love them all! 1) SVT3 with BBE into Mesa Diesel 2x15 2) Sansamp RBI/RPM thru Peavey 1u digital amp into Bergantino NV610 3) Old GK800rb with BBE into GenzBenz Neox212 All are aural 'p*rn'!

This is neither an NS2A or a 'Sting' bass. It is in fact an NS2J-AR & 83 were made in each of 3 colours - black, white & natural. These are Czech-made 'Anniversary' reissues of the twin J pick 1983 US-made NS2J basses. Sting used an early 80's US-made NS2 bass with p & j pickups.

Congrats TorVic! Nice score & welcome to the club!

Already watching it mate, cheers!

That's a fair price for a very collectable bass.... I was lucky enough to get my black poly Wal with gold hardware and ebony board for less than this and it's a monster! Whover buys this is in for a treat!

[quote name='Mr H' post='1291626' date='Jul 3 2011, 11:13 PM']Reminded me of this clip from [i]The Tube[/i], featuring a Staccato bass, a Staccato guitar (momentarily) and - bless 'im - Mitch Mitchell... [/quote] My Staccato is a black version of that one I think... Shame they couldn't play the 'riff' correctly in this eh?
