How would sound a Jazz bass with dual mudbuckers? Why BaCH doesn't make an EB-6? I need a practice amp.

Exiled... I suspect that doubling the mud would not imporove the fruits of your labour but one in the forward position would be (Grand) funky... ;)

(adding fuel to Droom's pain...)

The last addition to my little herd jumped my collection by 33% (no quibling over fractions please) ...

The next one will only jump the number by 25% ...

If I sneak in a 6th bass (hmm... does a blues band need an 8 string...?) that would be a 20% increase ...

This only goes to prove that more is less... :o

How wierd is that...?

Flats are my kiss of death.  Must put rounds back on 4001.  Frets be damned!

I find the classic bass line from "Black Magic Woman" to be surprisingly satisfying and melodic to play.

"Stealin" was a great tune  :toast:  We were driving through Wisconsin, heading to some guitar show, a local radio station played it! I don't think I'd heard it in 30 years! Now I might have to buy the CD.  :-\
