Just seen this on Facebook re: the Grabber: Seen at Reddit: "Gibson Grabber Reissue by Epiphone I've got some exciting insider news: Epiphone is set to re-issue the iconic Gibson Grabber model bass from the 1970s, which was discontinued in the 1980s. The Epiphone Grabber bass will be available in a natural finish, and black finish. Unlike the original sliding pickup, this re-issue will sport a non-movable, mounted pickup. All this goodness will be available for a price of $999.99, and is set to be released late 2024". Not much to grab then...

Looks great... typical oversized Epiphone tuners, but that's an easy fix!

Eruption - Focus

They're Coming to Take Me Away - Napoleon XIV

There have always been s*** songs with s*** lyrics. This particular one - or something similar - gets wheeled out time and time again as an example of how bad/sordid/offensive (delete as applicable) modern music is, or strangely, in defense of older songs that were once totally acceptable but now seem a bit iffy. Regardless of your opinions of Brown Sugar, quoting a random contemporary lyric doesn't really justify or apologise for it. In years to come, will society look back at Nicki Minaj's lyrics and collectively shake it's head in a "what were we thinking?!" haze? Possibly. Maybe it'll just be seen as the meaningless rhythmic word salad that it is. There's nothing behind it. Brown Sugar is powerful, however you view it.

Student Demonstration Time - Beach Boys

The Intense Humming Of Evil - Manic Street Preachers

It even looks like the pickups are in the right place! But please, give us more colours than silverburst.

The Everlasting - Manic Street Preachers

Memory of a Free Festival - Bowie

Elephant Man - Mastodon

Holst The Line - Toto

Hail and Farewell to Britten - Type O Negative

That rings a bell...

They're only playing a 30 minute sample of the album so even if there are leaks, it won't be the whole thing.

Youth of the Nation - P.O.D.

Yes - Manic Street Preachers

Sharpshooter - Motorhead

The Itch Is Back - Reg

Cape Fear - Bernard Herrmann

Better than any other string I've ever played. I use Hi Beams which are very bright and I get several months out of a set before needing to change them. The do lose that fresh out of the packet zing like all strings, but they remain bright and aggressive.

Totally worth it, DR are incredibly high quality and last a very long time.

I used to use a 110 for drop C, but I liked the resulting grunt and rattle. I know @Wolverinebass uses DR DDTs for lower tunings, they're excellent.
