My life has been so empty without them.

Pssst, Jack. His profile say "guitar". Not sure what it means but I thought it might help.

 

[dougmoser]

how can something so wrong be so right?

 

[barkatozz]

Yeah....always wanted one so I could replace the nut on my bass every week.

Eric Haven, their demonstrator is a Dude Pitter and you gotta listen to what he can do with one...good man and helluva bass player...

My profile should probably be listed as some type of offender, but hey aren't we all family here?

Billy is a huge influence on Eric as well as me. I've watched Billy live since 1975 in Buffalo.

My F@nder P-bass has had a Kahler tremolo on it since the mid 1980's.

Haven't had to replace the nut yet.

Of all the things I've done to basses, and I did some bad things in my day, I never once thought, "Hmm, if only I had a whammy bar."

It's a young guy thing.

Unload all of your Laklands and you'll begin to understand...

 

[bovinehost]

So you mean that, with age and maturity, there is a chance of recovery?




(Hey, I'm truly a long-time proponent of "whatever floats your boat".)

Jack,

With 'age', there's a greater chance that long-term enjoyment of alcoholic beverages will have killed enough gray matter to.. um, what was the question?

I'm not familiar with that other word that you mentioned. Is it animal, vegetable or mineral?

Ditto that... Whammy's are for the other guys...


So how come everytime I see Jack's avatar I'm seeing a Flaming Logan Green Bongo with a whammy?

 

[SteveB]

Hey Anthony.. good eye catching that Whammy bar on Jack's Logan Flame!

Seriously, my brother had that Kahler installed on the p-bass in the 80's. I've had the bass for the last 10 years or so, and I've never even put the trem arm in while playing.

Now I'm going to have to compose a short demo tune that utilizes the bass Kahler! Good thing I just bought new Super Slinky strings for that bass! Hmm.. maybe next week, this week is looking rather hectic..

Of course we are all family here. And of course, there are always black sheep in every family, aren't there?

just a little family ribbing.
