Yes, I agree with all here, bass solos blow donkey cocks...as do drum solos.

Blocks without binding... nah.

Will there be a version for vintage Gibsons with two point bridges?


I would be interested to know this, too. That's a very nice looking bridge!

Damn...thanks for the response guys..
I agree the best thing is to hear the cab..which requires having the speakers and i have to admit i don't understand much of diagrams and parameters.
I think i'll just leave the 1922 alone and start looking for a cab.

So next question  ;D have any of you guys tried the Ashdown VS 212, 2x12 (the red one they made for the little bastard) or the Rootmaster 212T (also Ashdown)?

I've looked at the Ashdowns, remembering they had a nice sound back then when they came out and you find them cheap used...


Those Ashdown 2x12 cabs are really nice and sound good too. Another option would be Avatar, or if you wanted a Marshall style 2x12 to match your head, you could have Jeff Swanson build you one for not much more $ than you buy another for.

Other Bass Brands / Bach bird bridge
July 18, 2014, 12:00:43 PM
Anybody have a line on where to buy those two point bridges Bach used on their nonreverse birds?
They used to pop up on eBay but now that I need one I don't see any. I like Scott's Badbirds better
but I don't want to have that much $ in the bridge on this project. Any help would be much
appreciated. Thanks.

From one of my former bands, This was a prog outfit called Somnambulist that featured Peter Cornell, brother of Chris on vox.

I've got Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, Bill Bruford, Roger Dean, Jeff Berlin, Kasim Sulton and Rufus and Martha Wainwright. None of the sigs are on a guitar though.

Nice B&W my buddy took at a recent Sir Army Suit gig. I'm using my 2003 LP in tobacco burst.

Scott, if you're still looking....might wanna get the interior length before bidding, though, as those Gibby's were 32" scale.

I'm really diggin' that plumglo, Burgundy Mist is my absolute favorite Fender color. Might be a good refin option for a Rick that needs it.
Certainly would be more economic than $3K+.
