  1. If I didn't already have a Boss ME-50B and more pedals than I know what to do with, I would have bought this as a backup. Btw, the tracking on the detuner is practically perfect. I had some strings on a short scale bass that were far too floppy at standard tuning, so I tuned up a tone, and set the detuner down a tone. No issues at all.

  10. From the internet: Musician A person who puts £2000 of gear, into a £500 car, to play a £50 gig.
  11. My happiest childhood memory is building sandcastles with my grandfather.

  12. I had one at the time and that's why I got rid of it, I play fingerstyle and the edge of the body dug painfully into my arm.

      Sorry to be a downer, but vampires show up in modern mirrors. They didn't show up in mirrors before because mirrors were backed with silver. Now we use aluminum.
