Hey Trevor, King and Gang That is certainly an interesting site, and I was chuffed to see that the Fylde guitars were made from barrels used for the production...
King, Once again you have shown exquisite taste by bringing the subject of English beer into the conversation alongside our beloved basses. I thank you! I...
Continuing on, like the sad git I am, I did a quick search for the aforementined Lion and came up with the following link. Check out the 360 degree pic. The...

Steve hello, thankyou for your response, and I apologise for my delay in replying but I have been away for the last couple of days. I would wish to start the...
Stephan, why are there no database entries after 2002? Have we had no 2003/04 models submitted? Also what about adding basses we know exist but the owner did...
Roger-Thanks for a well-thought response. And I too apologize for jumping on you the way I did. I will say that the anticipation surrounding this instrument...

I recently was reviewing Geddy Lee's equipment posted on a web site which described the gear he used over the course of his Rush career and I noted something...
jrr- I'm afraid you are mistaken about Geddy using a Wal on Counterparts. He definitely used his black Jazz Bass for the entire album. To me, I can clearly...
Thanks Dave. I guess I was fooled. The jazz bass sounds exceptionally well on that particular album. I guess the way he was recorded it made all the...
... I have to concur here too that it was the Jazz all through the album. Even given the difference in tonality between Geddy's Power Windows sound and the...
