Sub.Un.Breakable

While moving my basses yesterday after taking pictures of them for Insurance, I lent the S.U.B. on the wall & went downstairs to see what my dog was barking at. Then on the way back upstairs I heard a bang & when I got there the SUB was face down & I was dreading what I might find.

So picked up the bass looked over it checking for any cracks in the neck/headstock area as this had taken the main force of the fall. But thankfully the only thing wrong was that the G string was out of tune. Was it part of the plan to make the SUB bass as tough as they could, & handle whatever could be thrown at them. Are all EBMM basses as tough as this.

just be glad you didnt have it on a guitar stand. i get a lot of crap for not using a stand, but i swear those things do more damage than they prevent. the headstock always hits the ground first (at a really catastrophic angle) when it gets kicked, or just slides itself out of stand, and after the headstock hits, it aint quite done yet cause the body is still up in the air. this is the part where i tell jack "told ya so".

I'm just glad that bar for the G string being out of tune,the bass was ok an amazing bass.

But unlike you, I don't have enough chairs to hold them all at the exact precarious angle you're so fond of.

I couldn't agree more. I put 4 dings at once on my peghead when my foot snagged my cord and pulled bass and stand together into the drum rack. But then I set an olp on a stool and it decided to leap off and snap a cloverleaf off.

I didn't call mine the Line-X for nothing. Built like a tank those SUBs.
