Mark's frequented the Tb forums for a bit now..very cool dude..glad to see he made it over here... LOL my daughter has the same Sesame Street vid with them on it... I think I remember reading he uses the sweatbands kind of like a mute of sorts...im sure he'll chime in to verify.

This forum just gets more amazing. Thanks for gracing us with your presence, Mark. I always turn your stuff up on the radio, just because of the groove.

I will have to see if I can utilize that dummy knob system.

Hey BP! Can we make that a new option?

It's already available on the Reflex and Big Al: Go to active mode and fiddle with the passive tone...

Yup, I pulled that number on our singer this evening. It worked like a charm

O.K. I'm finally going to ask: what's the sweatband on the headstock for?

I think they're used to mute the strings. When I saw Victor Wooten's band a couple times, his brother used them on his guitar, which helps keep the strings from buzzing/ringing/etc. If you've seen the guy play guitar, you understand why he needs them!

Cool to see Mark White playing a Stingray. I played the crap out of my Spin Doctors cd!

I wrote the Doctors off for few years after Two Princes got overplayed in TV and radio (yes that was really back in the day huh?). I enjoy them again though.

Thanks LightGroove and nurnay for answering. The headstock wraparound actually does indeed have a function.
