We were tight, had improved vastly on our stage presence, and rocked the house. The real star of the show, however, was the Epic. Run through the PA from my BBE BMax preamp (sorry, won't be affording a F1-X or F-2B), the bass lived up to it's name. Great sound, awesome playability, and so much fun it should be illegal. Thanks again guys. It may not be a Series bass, but it's got a sound no one else can touch. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 6111 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Monday, January 28, 2008 - 7:33 pm:    Nice shot of the Epic in the third picture! The top looks really nice in that light! jbybj Intermediate Member Username: jbybj Post Number: 136 Registered: 6-2006 Posted on Tuesday, January 29, 2008 - 1:59 pm:    I agree Tim, not that I wouldn't enjoy a Series bass, but I love the sound of my Epic. The set neck has it's own way about it, that I really enjoy. God speed in your battle.

I just got one not too long ago, and it has, as another member aptly put, a lot of "mojo". Enjoy playing it! neurotictim Junior Username: neurotictim Post Number: 31 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Tuesday, February 12, 2008 - 3:36 am:    From our show this past Friday. Not a particularly good show, we've been having issues internally... *shrug* The audio is pretty bad, we clipped the crap out of the video camera's mic, but you can catch glimpses of the Epic (especially the bridge) if you pay attention.

It's essentially a congo drum, as far as I know. He's a good friend of the band, and a talented singer/guitarist in his own right, and volunteered. We couldn't decide whether to use the kit or the djembe, so he played it with us. I wish the sound was better, it was really cool. ...Of course, I also wish my lead singer had been in tune... davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 6213 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Wednesday, February 13, 2008 - 7:10 pm:    Thanks; yes I know what a djembe is, I just couldn't make it out in the video.
