  Don’t let your dreams be dreams. Do you know what model you bought?

    Fender Bass VI

    6 string “bass” that’s string with higher strings and used as a guitar. Sounds mean as fuck in drop F or Drop G.

    It’s 800 so it isn’t a million bucks lol

      Baritone guitars are very nice and a good bit of fun. At first I thought it was odd they weren’t more embraced by the metal community, but I guess that’s because they just went straight to seven strings.

        Exactly right.

        Personally I prefer to stay in 6 strings so I don’t have to completely change my picking technique after 20 odd years.

        The Bass VI sounds amazing from what I’ve heaed but will Defs be taking the helix with me to test it out.

  New Job Present! What’s on the wish list? My last guitar purchase was in 2012 so I’m well overdue, I’ll shop vicariously through you =)

    So this is technically a bass, but it’s being used currently all over the place as a guitar with lighter gauge strings. Because of the build, it’s pretty much perfect for heavy, down tuned music!

    This place doesn’t have one, but I reckon I can find one by next week

      Oh man that thing looks awesome - good luck with the search! Because you totally deserve it!

      My last purchase was a 2011 Les Paul Studio, not the sexiest full-bling LP but every time I pick it up I absolutely love playing it. And after playing a few newer ones I actually prefer the one I’ve got.

        Thanks mate. It’s been a hell of a ride the last few months.

        I used to solely play Gibson SG’s but I grabbed an Epiphone LP and it’s incredible. Feels so different. The weight distribution is better as well.

        Do you still play?
