Has he recovered from the imprint of 12 machineheads being smacked into his face? I have a guitarist friend/acquaintance who revels in bassist ‘jokes’. Other than it just being a dïck move, he is actually not a funny bloke and his attempts at humour always seem to miss the mark. I even think I’m as good a guitarist as he is, as he only ever seems to churn out worn blues ditties and licks and I can do that.

Ooh, goody! Having just discovered the delights of SS, I’ll be following this with even more interest than usual, although I’m not sure that’s possible.

I was watching a video of Scott Devine interviewing the great, Bobby Vega. Talk turned to his famous ‘shark’, 61 J bass. Scott asked what wood it was made of, Bobby replied, “Brown.” Utter genius.

Thereby making them the antithesis of tonewood.
