Yes, It's so silly sometimes what he does.

Silly and usually successful.

I remember when the KISS coffee house opened about five years ago, someone posted an article about it at the Pit. There was a LOT of interest. It became an instant tourist attraction at Myrtle Beach.

Latest pics show Petersson using what appears to be an Orange AD200B bass head. I guess it "could" be a Retro 50 or AD50...since he likes low powered Hiwatts.

Note the cabs he chose (12's) are also not the usual Orange bass cabs.

I thought the tan grillcloth was only on their guitar amps, 'course I could be wrong.

That was a mouthful tasteful bass solo. Not a single superfluous note. Immaculate performance. Really a breath of fresh - if combustible-drenched - air.

Uninformed question: Does that read "Gibson" on the headstock and is it a Gibson Custom Shop thing or boutique built with the logo just slapped on in tribute?

 Mine's a work of art, and I mean that as a great compliment........

MOP Headstock.



Backside of the headstock with a CS stamp, filled in with paint just a little - like Gibson would do  ;)
