Too bad he only noodled around playing leads on one sound!  Surely with all those controls you could get something else from it?

The G3 worked really well for a certain 90s-era "punk" band ....  like 'em or not that was an assertive pick sound for sure!

I forget if I've posted this before... but if you're going to fight off a ceiling-mounted shark at the club, you need a bass with some heft to it.

I wouldn't pay $3k for it, but I think it's gorgeous.

Oh man, I wanna go back to Scotland so bad... what a beautiful country. I never got up north, only Edinburgh, Glasgow, and the Isle of Arran.

The difference in regional accent between Edinburgh and Glasgow was surprising to my American ears: Edinburgh sounded like American English with a few odd vowels thrown in;  Glasgow ... everyone I met seemed so friendly, but I was constantly embarrassed by not understanding a word anyone said!

Oh yeah! Carlo made a J-ish bass.  I prefer the P body shape though.

Wow that's even more moserite-y now!  Super retro. I kinda like it.

Are they selling anything that will make me play guitar like Nels Cline?  I'd buy that.

This was pretty revealing. A familiar story for many people I'm sure... but I've never experienced much in the way of drugs, so it's only when somebody can articulate it like this that I feel like I can get a glimmer of what kind of hell it can become.   Sad that the optimism of the end of this article (from 2005)  proved temporary.
