Dallas Guitar Show

[bovinehost]

Tell me that isn't the most horrible thing I've ever played. You can't. You think it looks bad? You should have heard the noise it made. I'm sure I can't describe it, but imagine, if you will, the sound of a burrito fart being violently nailed to a trash can lid. The trash can is full of vile, week-old fish parts. Are you with me?

I also saw - I am not making this up - an acoustic Flying V.


Anyway, I am woefully short (as in absent) of photos from the EBMM booth but did have a nice visit with Derek and Glenn....but I knew you guys would want to see the Banjo Bass.

I thought the active-passive Stingray was excellent - oh, and I saw the Dark Lord, which was already sold. Apparently, Keith had already been by the booth.

Jack that is quite horrible, and well yes I had already been at the booth Sorry I missed you at the show had to leave at 4:00 for a previous engagement.

By the sounds of it Jack, you should have just kept on walking. And there's the acoustic Flying V in the background. Now that's different.

[njhammer]

The Banjo. The bizzaro Bongo?

 

[fly]

I'd almost buy that,just because..........

 

[adouglas]

You forgot to put yer front teeth in, ya old coot.

 

[bovinehost]

It's really just my tongue covering those teeth, but I like how it makes me look even more demented.

 

[Oldtoe]

Dang.

 

[nlimon]

Reminds me of this...
Built from spare parts found around the farm for a bluegrass duo with my uncle that never really happened. It now sits under my bed. When plugged in it actually has a decent acoustic sound. Purists may want to turn away.

Yes, the tuning system is at the bridge and is made from wingnuts on some bolts resting inside the grooves of an eggflip.

 

[bovinehost]

I want one.

 

[MK Bass Weed]

Gee, I thought this was about David Letterman playing the BassJoe...!

 

[bignasty]

Gee, I thought this was about David Letterman playing the BassJoe...!

[mmbassplayer]

Jack... Happy to see you dressed up for the occasion.

 

[Chuck B]

I did let Anita take a look at the picture, Jack

 

[ivbenaplayin]

did it have flats on it?

 

[adouglas]

So I guess that thing has a magnatec pickup?

Okay, okay, I'll sit down and shut up now.

 

[kylierider]

I used to own one of those banjo bass thingies....stay away...far away.

Hey, I've had that thing almost 2 years now and never noticed that! Very funny. I think I'll steal it.
