For some reason, Grabbers invite punkish bass playing. It's the inherent slight nastiness of their sound!  :mrgreen:

I have no problem with that.

Neither do I. It was after all Gibson's attempt at emulating the P Bass - the to-go-to bass of all punks!

I'd guess it's the go-to for punks because they're so common that they're the easiest to steal!

Dinosaur Jr. is cool. Something was in the UMass Amherst water in the mid 80s. Same place spawned the Pixies. Pixies had better songs. Dino doesn't seem to get as much credit for being as groundbreaking a band as they were. Compared to their contemporaries, I always appreciated J's approach to the guitar.
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

I never realised how much I drew from Lou Barlow's bass playing until a little while ago. Both in D Jr and Folk Implosion.

They do get nuff credit tho, just a generation or two later.

Glad to know they've caught on. Figured this is worth posting for the V.

Someone owning a "V"-Bass and actually playing it, albeit as a rhythm guitar (which is probably all it's good for).

Hadn't seen this video of Acca Dacca before, Mark Evans with his Grabber.

Mark Evan's bass style was much more (even-60ies-)pop oriented than Cliff Williams'.

Yeah; that's what I'm talking about.

I will credit D Jr. for my early discovery of the band Tool. Shortly after D Jr. took the stage at Lollapalooza 3, I left to get a beer. On the way back to my seat, I noticed on the side stage a guy playing a Ric 4001CS through a big Mesa rig. I'm not sure if Undertow had even been released yet, but I liked them immediately.  ;D

Dino Jr anyone?


Oh Yeah! I bought 'where you been' in '94. A friend of mine just bought a record he picked just because it had a cool cover, so I decided to do the same. A big departure from the music I listened to back then, but I really liked it and it widened my quite narrow mindset at the time🙂 followed them up to about 'hand it over'.
