The Outpost Cafe / Re: The Beatles Get Back Documentary
« on: December 09, 2021, 12:26:41 PM »
There have been so many discussions on the details already, so I'll just say that I enjoyed seeing the process unfold and it made me want to be in a band again.

He should have called Andy Field at Mesa, Jeff at Genzler amplification, or Douglas Castro at Darkglass. It would have been a much more interesting article.

The Bass Zone / Re: Steel vs graphite bass neck reinforcement
« on: November 05, 2021, 04:40:05 PM »
As long as the word "fiber" is included, you're both right. Carbon fiber is a less pure form of graphite fiber.

That said, I suspect that Warmoth uses carbon fiber rods, not graphite fiber rods.

I like that a lot! I was not aware these were still being made. I may need to grab a Longhorn, just because...

Other Bass Brands / Re: Dudepit Lakland Special Order
« on: October 19, 2021, 08:36:05 PM »Remember this one? Darkstarred 4004L
That specific instrument is one that got my juices flowing on becoming a builder. FWIW, I love the new Guild BS-1, as do folks who own a few of my builds with them installed.

The fetishism of scarcity and the business of collectables are curious things.

Interestingly, I feel the same way about a lot of the the music posted here and elsewhere in the forum. No big deal, it's OK to like different styles and I'm learning more about the history of these bands just by hanging out here and reading everyone's posts.
