Nice score!! Looks really clean and the 18volt electronics is a real bonus!
My bud who I trade my minty bright yellow one (SN#555) for his SN#044 called me last weekend when he was in NY playing the Nassau Coliseum. He's been doing a world tour with the yellow one most of the year with Sonu, the Indian pop star.
He was in town doing an Indian music fest show and called asking if I wanted to be on his guest list....but warned me that it was like four hours of hardcore Indian dance and music stuff. I was tied up and couldn't go. I mentioned it to some of the Indian folks I know who own/work at the local delis new me....they ALL freaked out and said they would have paid BIG bucks to have gotten backstage.
Go figure
BTW.....If anyone spots a Kubicki FACTOR (that's the non-drop D model in 34-inch scale) in the same red and the one in this string....drop me an email. My bud is looking for a fretted one.
I actually have one but I got it from Stu Hamm and the neck is from a rare two-neck/matching SN# set. Stu said Satriani forced him to get a 34-inch one when he was playing with him, insisting he could hear that the low E was not thick enough on the 32-inch scale ExFactor.
Good ears...or bullsh*t ? I can maybe see hearing the difference between a 30.5 inch short scale bass and a long scale 34.....but between a 32 and a 34? Especially when the low D drops to a FAT 36-inch scale when the lever is up......I don't know.
