I think it's the tones that Golden Earring gets that makes me continue to like them.  There's a lot to be said for a band that not only knows what to play, but how to flavor it.

Bass, schmass - Kooymans is playing a Gibson Marauder and getting a decent sound out of it!

And guess what kind of guitar I got myself yesterday?


I removed the Bigsby though and if you look closely you'll see that the person who changed the bridge screwed up the allignment: high E-string isn't even close to the bar of the bridge pickup. That guy who put the Bigsby and the roller bridge on is what we call in the Dutch language a "Beun Haas"

It sounds a lot like a fretless Musicman, it's a little warmer though.
