Being Canadian, I thought that was great.  I'm more about MLB than the NHL, but don't tell anyone.   ;D

There's now a 4 and a 5 at my local BestBuy here in Nova Scotia, but I didn't think they were worth asking for assistance to give a test drive.

That's the first pic I've seen of Axl ever where he looks like a friendly average dude at ease with himself. It must be heavily photoshopped.



He's slowly turning into Carrot top.

I had a Burmese Python for a couple of years...she was 10-11 feet at the time.  She was a real sweetie.

I'd still pick my Dusty Hill custom shop bass over anything else I've owned or played.

I made it a bit longer, it's okayish, but I'd take his compressor away. Why so many bassists insist on playing with one and feel that is benefits their sound is beyond me, to me it's a music deadener. I don't even use one with an octaver (as is always recommended).

I use the Diamond bass compressor and think it's great.  Just adds a bit of something quite nice without it being squishy.

There's a slightly used black one at a store here...$1125 US it works out to.  Nice price.

I feel for you man, sorry to hear.  It's terrible.

One of my boxers went two years ago - 6 month of heart failure...caught him in my arms on his last heart attack.  Memories never fade.   Now my other one was diagnosed with a golfball sized tumor between her heart and lungs.  She was supposed to be gone in July (had date and time booked), but blessed I am as Prednisone seems to have given her more life and she's holding steady.  But it's a lot of work...a few infections have come and gone among other things.

Worst thing in the world to me.

Isn't that the factory finish for that bass? They should throw in a free chisel and chainsaw in case you want to add to the ambience....

Yes..that's the finish from Fender custom shop
