"Sounds great looks stunning and is already a collector's piece."
"I recently had it evaluated and the guy said he was almost too scared to handle it as it is such a lovely example."
This year my plan is to spend more time looking at other folks kit - I always seem to get to the end of the day and wonder where the time went!
I'm debating whether to bring 8 Rickenbackers (and the Rickenberger) or a selection of oddments.
I should have Ampeg SVP & SansAmp RBI pre-amps in a case with a class-D power-amp, if anybody's interested in contrasting them (however, it would require figuring out how to use the controls on the Ampeg!).
Also a note to self: don't forget to check the batteries in any actives!
🙂
Actually, the down octave on the higher notes with my Aguilar Octamizer sounds really good; I think it'll track down to a C. However, the break-up as notes decay would be a show-stopper for me.
I can oftentimes tune a bass by ear, so if I played a G I'd get an F and it would do my head in.
I suppose it'd work out if I was on one of my Steinbergers, as the strap position pushes the neck two frets away from me, though!
Cool.
Personally I'd find everything artificially being out by 2 frets more confusing than either using a 5-er or an eXtender.
But heck; that's me, not everybody else!
