Was that brass done at Alembic? Nice touch.... Best of luck with her; play in good health...

I was intrigued by the upside down lefthanded stringing although the bass player with hayseed dixie has the same. At the time I saw it, it was heading off for a special engaving, presumably the truss rod cover. Fantastic bass collin I'll send my left handed daughter down to steal it ;-) Graeme jlpicard Advanced Member Username: jlpicard Post Number: 205 Registered: 7-2002 Posted on Thursday, June 09, 2005 - 1:14 pm:    Collin, Great to meet anothr Lefty!

That is an amazing bass. I can't make out the Zepplin logo that you mentioned. Do you have a close up of it? Enjoy and Congratulations.

He recognised me from this forum. I think it was either a Scott Henderson or a Tribal Tech gig. Nice guy and we had a good nerdy chat about alembics and other bassy stuff.
