I've always thought the Supertone was grossly overrated.
The pretentious name doesn't help either
"Crossroads" and "Badge" may be my favorite Cream songs. I was once in a band that had good results with "Badge." As for "Crossroads," it would be hard enough for me just to play it the way it should be, must less sing and play it, too. Of course even Jack didn't have to sing it with Cream, either. Also, as an aside, even though I like Jack Bruce as a vocalist more than Eric Clapton, I thought Clapton did an incredible job on singing "Badge."
Here is a clip from the 1968 farewell concert which I recently saw on big screen for the first time. The camera work on this is bad, but this is all we have.
That's true. Something like that would be very rare now. I just posted it because it shows Jack in a non-Cream context, but when he was still playing the EB-3. Cream is probably my favorite band, but anyone who does an EB-3/SG type video now usually starts it off with the obligatory "Sunshine of Your Love" riff.
That's the GFP bridge (glutton for punishment). Fortunately there are options.
And that's even the model with the nice (and good) bridge!!!
And maybe end up playing some music like this--
Congrats.
Now go dust off your Andy Fraser / Jack Bruce / Allen Woody skills!
Can't go wrong with a 2x15!
