4001 & 450 MC5 strikes again!

Post by studiotwosession »

450 looks like it's been routed for some funky humbuckers. Darn shame.

Yeah great lead on a 450/12 and a wireless performance way back then.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

This is the one that did it for me! Definitely no jangle on THIS track! It's more like a bomb going off!

The whole look GF had was very MC5, only when the latter had it it was much more outrageous. Buy the time the former had it, high school kids were looking like that.
