That looks like an awesome bass!

Thanks everyone!

Special diet and exercise... I am on a mostly liquid diet though now I am learning about healthy food choices and stuff, and working out a whole lot.

Thanks Paul! I've lost 130 pounds since last year. It's been funny, at rehearsals I'd be thinking, this guitar is not as comfy to play... then I'd realize I need to raise the strap!

One thing I see and hear a lot of guitarists do is tune to the sustain on a tuner, like, they have the note in tune as it rings out, which IMO is wro...

Here I am with my 360/12 in San Diego. I've flirted with some other guitars, but I keep coming back to this one. I think I've accepted it now!
