Very nice - apart from your 25th and your son's guitar have you any other EBMM surprises on order??
My darling girlfriend came back from Los Angeles last month with a bag full of stuff that she bought in some music stores over there, she said it's what I would like for sure since it's what I have been using for long time, (so she says) whilst I was not allowed to see what was inside as she hid them, I imagine it can only be a load of lyme green packs of Super Slinky's set s of 5'ers #2836 or similar, we shall see. But that is it for a while.
My last purchase for the year 2009 was a very ubercool Mark Bass Compressore Pedal, which I am loving. You should try one, they're pukka!
Lucky you - or maybe it'll be some other cool EBMM item - I just got a Shopatronic email offering those cool EBMM bassball caps with the old Musicman logo.
I have an Aphex Punch Factory which I use with my rig - I'll try a Mark Bass one when I get a chance though. The compressor works well with the fretless Ray especially if you hit the strings hard!
