Earthwood Bass

Think about the production schedule, Dargin, just keep thinking about the production schedule!

(But if Dan N is out back carving up an Earthwood, tell him it's just as easy to do two.)

Plus, don't you have the pygmy Earthwood guitar?

Since Brian Ritchie was in a recent issue of Bass Player touting these old beauts...

"One came up on eBay and I bought it about five seconds later. Not a week goes by when I don’t get asked if I want to sell one. It’s a shame they’re so hard to find, because they’re really the best acoustic bass guitars.”

That's great word-of-mouth, BP!

If you want to see an earthwood in action go to The Official Dead Milkmen Website and then go to their videos page. Watch the video for the puking song. The one that was on MTV. The bass player uses one (and used a musicman for all recordings and most videos) pitty he commited sucide about a year back.

I was watching that video this weekend not knowing what kind of bass that was and thinking "wow that is one nice sounding, good looking bass".

Plus, the dead milkmen just rock.

Dave Blood was the first Musicman player (circa 86) that got me hooked on the Sterling. Found this post from an Earthwood Google search. Full circle with MM!
