My RD has it's first public outing
« on: July 03, 2011, 04:07:28 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.

Cheers

Definitely not your regular rig...

40 years... where has it gone... RIP Jim

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!
