Thanks to my Uncle(who is a Fine Musician), I am able to make payments on a beautiful Walnut/Mahogany Distilliate 4 String, from 1983. After years of abusing myself, I see this as a path of light. I didn't know the Distilliate necks tilted back like a Les Paul. I think the Persuader I once owned had this feature. I've had 3 other high end basses, but..this particular one means alot. I've played now for 22 years. I get stuck on youtube quite a bit, listening Stanley Clarke, Jaco, Anthony Jackson, Bill Dickens. My favorite current band is Van Halen. Take care.. |

Welcome to the club. Though we may have different tastes in music, our ability to discern a spectacular bass appears to be similar. I think you'll really enjoy playing your Distillate. As far as I'm concerned, other than the Series basses, the Distillate is King/Queen. |

Thank you, Sir. I feel very welcome here. I certainly do love my new Bass. I plugged in, and sounded almost exactly like Entwhistle with his Spyder/Exploiter. |
