    .....like a hurricane

    It's coming.

    I talked to my biological mother's fiancee, who is an EBMM dealer, about a bass, and he ordered 2. Gonna be about 3 months-which is fine. I'm a patient person.

    Graphite pearl and Natural.

    Both HH, both rosewood.

    I get to choose which one I want, and he'll send it.

    Anybody got any pics of those two colors?

    like, for a desktop background?

    I always thought that Tony Levin used his 3 string MM with those finger extension things. Great tone whatever he did..

    ^^Liked the bass alot, but not so much the song. just taste stuff.

    Maybe I'll get a tort and a clear!

    that, plus whatever it comes with, would be enough variety for me.

    Course, I love foreigner.

    It'll likely be Readymade, BSSM, or maybe Aeroplane, PoT, Schism...hell I don't know. Maybe even the greatest song ever: Summer Romance by Incubus.

    well, the best they've ever written. (with apologies to offended Ben Kenny fans)

    I'll probably forget all about that particular moment when I plug it in, and end up playing my warmup scales....

    the Pete song was nice, but that's not what I had in mind.

    I thought about naming the bass after whatever song I play first, but then I remembered I had the perfect name: Plank. Affectionately, of course.
