I always thought it a bit cheeky of Limp Bizkit to release a song called 'My Generation'. I mean, that's iconic isn't it? It's like a boy band releasing an inane song and calling it Bridge Over Troubled Water or something.

I don't think they even widened the neck before...

My name is Bill Decker, and I'm a murderer.

The knobs in your pic don't look quite real. It looks more like a Photoshop job. The other pic on the previous page looks a bit more realistic. I'm not defending it though, it's still ghastly!

The Tech 21 Leeds does JJ wonderfully. It does the whole Hiwatt thing, and with a Precision it's just heaven.

It's beautiful. Congratulations! I've always wanted to try a Sadowsky - another Newsted admirer from way back!

Someone made a film about him a few years ago - "All You Need Is Klaus". I highly recommend it! He seems like such a lovely guy. And of course, his artwork is incredible.

It is if you want that Moving Pictures Geddy tone. He switched to both pickups on Signals though, and has been there ever since. Doesn't sound quite as good to my ears.

Indeed! And on the front pickup only as well. I'm sure The Camere Eye was his Rick though. I tried out a friend's new Squier Jazz the other day through my Dug preamp, front pickup only - instant Limelight! So good.

It's excellent for bass. I think it was overlooked by lots of bass players as it wasn't a bass-specific pedal, but it absolutely nails that late 60s Entwistle sound.

Thank you @Tech21NYC!!!

Looks amazing. I love Tech 21 - the DP-3X and Leeds pedals are the backbone of my sound. I can't wait to give this one a go!

Interesting analogy! Can't quite see it myself

Greta Brinkman? She advertised Carvin back in the day...

That's one hell of a starter bass!

Cool bass! What is it?

I wish I knew how to post a video on here.

You may have seen this on the For Sale pages recently. It's an early 90s ESP Horizon, complete with futuristic conputer lettering on the headstock. It's a very comfortable bass, and is in superb condition. But don't be fooled, it growls - it's brutal through my Tech 21 dug preamp. And seemingly endless sustain! I'm not convinced by the 3 band EQ - it's got a sweepable mid control, and the whole thing just invites endless tinkering. I can't stop tweaking it. No complaints about the sound though! A big thank you to @cetera for a fun afternoon! Here 'tis:

I found them easy to tell apart, but the 4 string with effect was still pretty good.

Vintage Pro?

I am the happy new owner of Gary's ESP Horizon bass. It's wonderful and just as described. It was a pleasure to see Gary again and as always with these things I could have happily talked bass and music all day. Cheers Gary!

When I sell my beaten up old Encore I will be sure to mention it was built at the same time as an ALEMBIC and has 4 strings and a neck just like an ALEMBIC.

Well done! I realised afterwards that my post might look a little random if you werent familiar with The Who... Trick of the Light has two bass tracks - the 8 string playing the distorted riff (I think it's the Alembic) and a 'standard' bass part as well. Entwistle recorded this way on Success Story as well.

I know that song and didn't recognise it. The shame!
