Uwe, I saw an old post of yours about the epi "vinnie" lp bass,, you mention you have a prototype epi les paul bass?
Do you have any pictures you might be able to share? Is it Korean or US built? Sounds really cool!
"Never played one of those, but while a maple LP sounds somewhat like as a crime against nature conceptually, my maple prototype Epi LP sounds great. This Vinnie thing should be a snappy affair together with the EMGs."
