    That was even better than "Cats"!




















    Seriously, nicely done demo. I love that kind of stuff.

    Sounds great and looks like a fun gig.

    Hard to tell with the video lighting; is that a matching headstock?

    SR5 H (x3), SR4 H (x2), BA5 SSS

    Thanks for the kind words everyone.

    The rig is a Genz Benz 1200 into an SWR Big Ben (1x18.) I ran it mostly flat with the bass on bass turned up a bit. I can't say enough nice things about the GB (except the weight!) The 18 is really nice. Horns are for wimps! Mine is an older one with the Bag End driver.

    Non-matching headstock. Strings are EB hybrid slinky I think.

    That was a fun video. I would love to see you guys live! I always think an all white bass is too boring until I see one on stage. That bass is gorgeous! I loved your tone as well. hard to believe how tight your tone was with just a single 18. Thanks for posting!

    Vancouver is the Great White North?!? How much snow do you have on the ground We've already gotten over 60 inches of snow here in Green Bay, WI this year!! I prefer a pale ale, myself.

    It is a fun band to play in and they keep volume levels down which is cool. It's a nice treat to be able to play without my earplugs in.
