Here's a lost classic from my friend's Dad.

Here's what Ed is doing these days.

I wasn't entirely serious. Probably just looks different from the angle. Differences in manufacturing are possible also.

Jamerson's cover got flatter because he rests his hand on it, perhaps. Whatever you do, don't put a 70s rounded cover on a 60s bass or the Fender police will come after you!

I should be seeing him next week. I'll be sure to let him know he's loved and missed here.

I'm going to see this fellow Krishna at the guitar garage in Waltham MA, to discuss options for the bass. I've been seeing him turn out some nice work and I'm sure he can help me whichever direction I decide to go. I'll update as things develope.

Danko sounded great on his slot head. That dude had soul. Copacetic, you could check out some of Curtis Novak's pickups if you're looking for options other than the TB+

Interesting. Now I remember Mary. It may have been a slight case of beer googles when I said that last night. Great song.

That's not Trujillo is it? I'd totally bang the Mom in that vid but I bet she's gotten pretty saggy since it was made.

Alive was one of the first tunes I learned but it wasn't my idea to cover it. Evenflow was a decent jam. I don't own any Pearl Jam but I had aja on vinyl when my phonograph was still working. I definitely like Chuck Rainey's playing but Donald Fagan's voice wears on me after a while. Hey Nineteen always makes me smile.

Didn't Boz Burrell play a fretless ampeg bass with bad co? If you can find a fretless Devil bass that would make a nice pair.

Turmeric can probably stain anything you put it on. I don't think I'll be doing any home science experiments with the guard I have. The tug bar holes are on the wrong side. I think turmeric is supposed to be good for preventing Alzheimer's as well.

That Dr. Hook vid kills me. What a bunch of jokers. Anyhow, here's an EB0 back in the day. This is one with the black pickup cover.

I bet it could run when he's done.

Link to the site under the pic. I hope this guy can handle his stuff. It is the singularly best tort available anywhere. If I was him I'd sell the process to FMI for a ridiculous huge lump sum and not have to worry about running the show. I can see a huge demand looming. I still think his guard would look great on my bass or any bass for that matter.

It'd be worth the trip for the wings and to check out your collection. I brought the bass back to where I bought it for a set up and the owner told me the same thing about cream or parchment being a good match and then he said I could stain the existing guard maybe with some coffee or tea. That tort is tempting but it's not cheap either. I think a precision guard would be about $140.
