Dave

Thanks....I try my best to spread the gospel of flat....and then when we design an new bass like the new 25th we give it gobs of eq.....The cool thing with all of the preamps is that really if you think of each of the controls as habenero pepper a little can make it great and a lot can blow it.....The best example is not words its playing...those tracks are both really solid and tight...great. ( dave has had to suffer through my playing so he know do as i say not as I play!)

"Taxman" is absolutely incredible! Amazing fretless tone! Good Work!

 

[DrGonzo5150]

As a skinny stringer, I rarely pay too much attention to Bass when i'm listening to a track

But WOW
Taxman is awesome!

Love it.

 

[oli@bass]

WOW! A lot of great playing on there! And the sound of the fretless Bongo is damn hot!

Thanks a lot for sharing these phantastic tracks!

I really like the psychedelic break in the middle.

DAMN! We moved back in November, and I can't find the set of flats I bought for my bongo!

I didn't know we could say "Holy **** " on this forum. Thanks for all the kudos.
Big Poppa , it is always a pleasure to play with you .You forumites should have seen Sterling at the Namm show proudly demonstrating the 25th Ann. Beautiful touch with tapping and slapping and other assorted impressive stuff.
And ... the 25th! another winner!
