Anyone heard it?



 It's OK and nice to see Het actually putting some guts into his singing again. But I liked it better the FIRST time they played it:



..and it's even a cover from Sweet Savage. Oh you millionaire/billionaire rock stars!

The Bass Zone / Dean isn't afraid of Gibson

I don't know what's happening on the legal front between Gibson and Dean over the Flying V, but this seems to indicate that Dean thinks Gibson can suck it.

Gibson Basses / EB-0 Questions
« on: September 26, 2019, 01:13:24 PM »
A local pawnshop has what they're calling a '58 EB-0. I normally hate shorties, but it plays and sounds amazing. I don't, however, think that it's actually a '58.  It's walnut finished, no PG, slotted headstock with what looks to me like OEM Schallers, Sidewinder pu and covered, rubber muted 2-point bridge. It would be a good deal even for a more recent model, BUT it would be a purely studio creature for me. My gut says 70's, and what info I have found seems to back that up. I'd appreciate any input.

The Bass Zone / NB(double)D
« on: April 11, 2018, 02:06:25 PM »
Both non-Fenders in the pic are new. The 5-string on the left is a Chinese-made Peavey Grind. I needed a cheaper bass for gigging and fell in love with the tone and playability. The double-bass is a 1930's German-made Juzek, solid construction. It's had some MAJOR repairs over the years; looks like the right shoulder was completely caved in at some point, but it has great tone and plays amazing. Like me, it's scarred but loud. I got it and the stand for less than half what plywood Chinese uprights are going for. I'm tickled.

If their discontinued budget basses that had the same pickups are any indication, it WILL be nice.

This is the FB link. There's nothing on the website which looks to have been last updated last July. The design seems a natural fit but that headstock has gotta go!

Gibson Basses / If you want one...

This cemented it for me! After some major positive life changes, I also finally get to indulge my curiosity about Gibson's aborted stab at innovation:

 http://www.musiciansfriend.com/stupid?src=3TP5DNC&&noPopup=true&src=3TP5DNC

...it's even the color I wanted most!

I finally will get to say that I have an actual Gibson to fight with my Fenders! C'mon people, we forum members have a DUTY to rescue these orphans.

Too late!!! It goes to a Schecter now. The link originally went to a white 2013 EB for $599.

I know: it's a shitty movie inspired by an 80's cartoon, but evidently Gibson saw fit to throw some money its way:

I seriously misspelled the word "throw." I suck.
