Re: Paul Boyer's book
Paul, I forgot if you have a section on custom and non-factory finishes, such as your Mink 4001. Do you need any more submissions? I can get you some hi-res shots of my trans blue 4003S if you need them...

Great to hear that, Paul, about Chris, I am glad he's going to take an active roll in the book

Chris Squire... COOL!
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Re: Paul Boyer's book
Congrats on getting Chris to write a foreword Paul. Now if we could only get him to come back and post on the RRF.

Re: Paul Boyer's book
And then there is "forward" and "foreword" so afterward is silly, too.
Foreword is "fore" (from "before") and "word," meaning a preface.
Forward is the direction thing or an indication of the future: "Moving forward with our plans . . ."

Re: Paul Boyer's book
Yet another reason I'll buy the book when it comes out. Chris Squire is why I own my 4001 (no disrespect to Sir Paul or any of the other fine Rick bass players). His sound and style were a major influence for me.bassduke49 wrote:I just got a brief e-mail from Chris Squire agreeing to do the foreword for the book!!!
