  3. I'm wondering what the difference in price would be, between this bass, and one made from the same parts but without the AC link?
  4. [quote name='essexbasscat' post='1247974' date='May 28 2011, 10:13 AM']In a previous disscusion about this (it used to puzzle me too) I heard the wise words "ask a violinist if the keys of C# and Db are the same", then batten down your hatches.[/quote] in a similar vein, don't tell the string section the (true) reason strings can sound so lush is because they are all out of tune with each other

  14. I remember White Metal from back in the day. Stryper were the ones who broke through but there was plenty of heavier stuff like Keel and Sacred Warrior.

  19. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='1246001' date='May 26 2011, 06:16 PM']As was discussed in another thread some of us have the 'holy trinity' which consists of a P, Jazz and MM.[/quote] Hamer Blitz = P on steroids Iceni custom = supa J Shuker custom = MM +
  20. [quote name='tauzero' post='1246903' date='May 27 2011, 12:08 PM']Alice Cooper for the gigs and the music.[/quote] travelling the world gigging with Alice Cooper does have a certain appeal. I'd take my golf clubs too
