Gibson Grabber Reissue by Epiphone
I've got some exciting insider news: Epiphone is set to re-issue the iconic Gibson Grabber model bass from the 1970s, which was discontinued in the 1980s. The Epiphone Grabber bass will be available in a natural finish, and black finish. Unlike the original sliding pickup, this re-issue will sport a non-movable, mounted pickup. All this goodness will be available for a price of $999.99, and is set to be released late 2024.


I don't know wo they are quoting here.
But its too bad it won't feature the sliding pickup, which is the only thing that would make the bass a true Grabber...

I can’t stand her!
Her so-called first reactions are totally fake. She pretends to never have heard songs before. And her facial expressions are so studied it’s almost an insult to her audience and to the artists she analyses.
The only good thing is she has a good knowledge of singing techniques..

Agree to disagree, but thanks for commenting.

I've discovered reaction videos on YouTube, and there's one "reactor" who is a professional opera singer, Elizabeth Zharoff. She focuses more than most on analyzing the vocal technique of singers. She does like popular music, she's interesting to listen to, and I've gotten a kick out of her analysis of SRV, the Moody Blues, Chicago and other artists.  Evidently her background is stronger in classical and popular, so there's a lot of older popular stuff she isn't familiar with.

This one is her reaction to You've Lost That Loving Feeling, and IMO it's a good listen.



And another band some of us know...



Here's one of my favorites - her first time hearing SRV:
