He used to advertise himself as the world's fastest bassist back in the early 80's.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

Kleen-Axe string damper...
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Victor uses them, too. Though he's a little more frugal - he uses a hair scrunchee.

Very like a stick. He should do a "bass off" against Tony Levin, Rick vs Stick....

Don Schiff does an outstanding job on the NS Stick. Check him out on youtube. I had an NS for about a year, but
it wasn't my cup of tea. I sold it and bought my Rick and I couldn't be happier!
