 The more I learn about Satanists, the more I like them.

Too cute! And now Auntie Mark will explain to y'all how the 'B' in LGBTQ stands for ... biplane!
 


 It goes both ways!

Yours isn't, the Epi was. Yours has a purdy tone, the Epi looks trailer park.
 


 Well, I'm not above bustin' out some Cheeta print, I can be a trailer park kinda girl!  :-*

OK, OK, I'll leave the Epi TRC for now. I'm familiar with the Ric Police, but not the Epi Police.  ;) It's mostly obscured by strings anyway.

So this bass... It's made a T-bird lover out of me. It hangs on my body unlike any other 'bird I've played (which is admittedly few). Very much like my Alembic or former Epi Explorer. No real neck dive to speak of. And it's light. I haven't plugged it in yet, but soon enough. I'll probably bring it to Who's Who rehearsal on Sunday. Love the neck. The guy put TI Jazz flats on it. Those will go to another bass to make room for my usual DR Hi Beams.

Anybody wanna buy a Peavey 6 string bass?  ;D Gotta make room and appease the wife. https://reverb.com/item/81110366-peavey-tl-six-6-string-bass-bartolini-upgrade



 The pickups are bright, I'm going to some SIT Power Steels on mine, they have more bass, lo-mid and mid presence.

I actually like the blue sparkle better, the purple one is a bit "pimpy".
 


 Pimpy?
