I was in a corny mood today: What would have happened if Les Claypool would have gotten the job @ Metallica in '86? Watch and shiver... Youtube link Featuring my '90 Elan and '06 Fretless (There's always a good excuse to spam these pics) :-) |

NIce work Flip! I can't play repetitive triplets like that and stay anywhere near on beat. |

I imagine he'd have hung himself in a few years, as Lars Ulrich wouldn't have the slightest bit of funk or soul in his drumming, even if he had regular injections of fried chicken grease from a greasy spoon in Arkansas. The ESP knockoffs of the Thompsons would have been interesting though . . . . J o e y |

And, oh yeah, NICE Elans, Flip. Myself, I've always admired that 'biga-da-bigida' triplet pattern that Les kinda made his own. Good on ya for spending tha much time in the woodshed ! J o e y |

I've said once, but I'll repeat myself anytime I see that Bass: Flip, you've got one of the finest, that fretless is awesome! |

Thanx all! The fretless is only two holes away from getting Signature electronics, should make it even more awesome! :-) (now I must learn to play it in a proper manner) Here's a nice one, from the master himself: Les Claypool playing a part of Master of puppets: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZDdrUi1HzI |
