    Big Poppa's Ultimate Bass Torture

    This is when pigs fly. When Poppa is a the buffet eating his words. This is a reaction to the market. This is Dargie and GLen and all the guys giving the public what they want. Guess what? They are cool...two band, strings through
    the body...mutes (be careful) and slab body....

    For those regulars I have always said that I didnt want to do this and that we would do this when we ran out of ideas. We arent out of ideas but there is demand and workers to pay and who says you cant offer it all?

    Sea Foam Green









    Cream
