He does and he has a rather strong dutch accent. He is cool even though he does not say much..

Alrighty then, the Cheyenne is going for round two tomorrow night in Tennessee. It just came back from a fret level and dress. It is 'narly now!!! The 1/2 step down in tuning makes it sound thick and ominous...Dr Rath, if I roll off the front pickup ever so slightly, it gives me enough bark and growl to scare the postman. Found a couple of strange things with the wood but that is to be expected with the replacement fingerboard. THIS time the 4003 is going to be the backup bass.. I am going to put this on first and we will see what happens. More later....

It was another SMASHING gig on friday night with the Cheyenne. It is definitely a keeper. I was rockin and knocking myself over at the same time. I have an Illinois gig this weekend...Hmmm, which bass should I play? The Union Jack bass is supposed to be done in a week or two depending on drying and buffing time....

Where and when is the Illinois gig? I'm in Chicago and am always interested in forum member gigs.

Well Jaymi...um...it looks like I won't be making it then! There isn't much that'll get me to Peoria these days. I'll let you know if I change my mind though.

Good luck!
