You already know my opinion, you lucky bugger...! :)

It was a stellar show here in Chicago on Friday. I have the complete set list with basses used for each song. I believe it was 18 total! The Fenders sounded killer, as did the Ric 4001 and 4080/12. The 4005, not so much, and the T-Birds didn't really stand out. The Zemaitis was REALLY aggressive sounding. Fun night!

Well, you ought to sell a few more now!

Great job Scott!  You did a fantastic job and you sound nothing like I might have imagined you would - almost a midwest, neutral, kind of accent.  If the bridge biz doesn't pay off you may have a bright future doing Oxyclean infomercials! ;D
