Very cool..I love those SSS BA's. They are all beautiful but I'm really liking the one on the far left.

So here we go.

Thanks to Bauschi (Bassic: E-Bass - elektrische Bassgitarren), tiefesb, Sonic69, MadMatt and guenter for a great afternoon. It was a pleasure to meet you!

It startes in good weather:

Since we did not only want to talk, we carried the following with us.

Basses:
25th anniversay 5 HH maple
Big Al 4 SSS alder /maple
Big Al 4 SSS alder /rosewood
Big Al 5 SSS (I would use it on stage)
Bongo 5 HH
Sterling 4 H maple
Sterling 4 HH rosewood
Stingray 4 H
Stingray 4 HS
Stingray 5 HH bfr rosewood
..and some old thing that used to be white in the early 60ies.

Amps:
Carvin bx500
Genz Benz shuttle 6.0
Markbass F1
Orange Terrorbass
T.C. Rebelhead
with some custom cabs (4x10', 4x12'+horn, 6'-2x10'-15')

And then we started to make some noise...

I was really impressed because all basses had their speciffic tones they did like no others. All were very good and each and every one had it's own magic moments as we played them.

Now I pass the word to someone else...

We had a lot of fun yesterday. This is my personal favorite photo, don't know why :

Luckily cellkirk74 did not post the pictures of me fondling a very old pre-CBS F3nd3r.

You know: I could do so any time

Do you want a large version of the photo of your Big Al? Just let me know.

(I just distributed the small EBMM-forum-compatible photos - more or less only resized w/o any image processing)

[DJBenzBass]

That looks like a great time! Well done!
Next time, more beer and Oktoberfest waitresses.
I tried to get my German company to send me there, but my request was denied.

So, THIS is a great picture of the Bongo:

The pic is even better when you know that this bassplayer here, is a hardcore Fender pre-CBS P-Bass player.
