- 1 another one that had to be sold... Down to only one Ric from 4 two months ago..

Best - Too many great ones to choose. Zep, Zappa, Alan Stivell, Grateful Dead, Glass Harp, among others.. Worst - This one is easy. I saw the Police on their final tour in Cincy 83 I believe. They raced through each song, no jams, their sound was terrible. Really deflated my great love of the band.

Okay, I will play
American Girl
Even the Losers
Running Down a Dream
End of the Line
King's Highway
Handle with Care ?
Listen to Her Heart
You and I Will Meet Again

No particular instrumental comes to mind, but for me, the best would surely include something from Leo Kottke..
maybe .. Driving of the Year Nail, Vaseline Machine Gun, etc... going by memory here...
Also, does Phil Keaggy ever play a 12 string? I bet there would be some gems from him if he does..

A timely topic for me. I am spending time learning to read music and chord charts this summer. I have always played by ear, but decided that I wanted to deepen my understanding by learning theory, sight reading, etc. So far so good, but still have a massively long way to go..I may never need it, but...

Subtract another one from me that just sold on ebay. 1059 now...

No, it did not. I offered it here, but no takers. Ebay did the trick..

Subtract 1 for me. I sold one of my basses, so 1055 now.

Hmm.. I checked the previous posts and didn't see anyone saying anything about being wrong... Not sure what you mean here. Cool video though!

Actually, I want one badly because I am almost exclusively a rhythm player, when playing a guitar at all. They are perfect for the stretch one needs to do Chuck Berry chords. I have a full scale John Lennon model, but would like the short one even more. All well, someday.....Also, it seems to me tha...

Already have plans or I would've driven up from Cincy with a Ric or two.. Darn..

Has anyone ever tried the Ernie Ball flats. (Group III I think?)

I already posted about my basses. Six stringers.... I play a Jap strat and a Gordon Smith SG2 with BKP Crawler pickups.

Hmm.. Hope we are allowed to post competitor's stuff here. So, I also have a Stingray, Bongo, cheap Beatles bass copy from Rogue(which plays and sounds great, btw..)
My Ric doesn't go to gigs.. Too valuable to me..

I saw QMS way back then too. Simply fantastic.. I think they were with Wishbone Ash, in what I think was their first American tour IIRC.. A long time ago now...
