Title: My RD has it's first public outing
Post by: Aussie Mark on July 03, 2011, 05:07:28 PM

Our originals side project had a gig last night (and we also did a Doors set at the end of the night for the 40th anniversary of Jim Morrison's death), so I gave the RD a public outing. I'm very happy with this bass - the neck is fantastic and I'm loving the ebony board.

What strings have you got on it Mark? Looks like Roto's in the pic.

Nice performance!!!!

Too bad the recording short-changed the bass frequencies...that's a great bass line.

Thanks! With headphones the bass line is quite audible. The audio was just the ambient mic on the video camera, so it's not bad considering.

Nice!

We used to play at JM tribute gigs too. And I would definitely do it again: I love this music!
