Damn! It's like Trevor Dunn went through a wormhole and re-emerged from some sort of warped, wonderful, alternate future. (I've been watching a lot of Fringe.) (Jean man, you can play the hell out of some bass! Is that even a bass at that point??? Hats off.)

I've always thought I'd snap one of those in half if I ever tried to play it.

I have one of those Rogue Violin Basses. I don't really ever play it. I probably should. Cept it's kind of a piece of shit.

I'm planning a wedding for me and that 10 string bass

A terrifying wedding

Eleven; but who's counting. It's a fuckload of strings.

It's an old El Degas and it's actually pretty good (esp for the very few $$ I paid for it). Doesn't weigh anything at all. I dig it.

Oh neat. MIJ then?

The tailpiece and control plate are near identical; control setup is exactly the same as well. Perhaps Rogue bought the design off of whoever owned El Degas (Fuji-Gen? Who the fuck knows?)

hurm. so, having a second Dinger has been tickling me. they are just beautifully made and super reliable, but using a 6er for everything i'm always a bit freaked out about a bass going down on me live and having to be like, "whelp. um. i guess.... we're.... done?" since i rarelycan borrow someone else's i'm playing with. plus, that's pretty noob doucher un-pro behaviour to expect someone else to be comfy helping out like that.

but i just did a thing with the (not crap, just not GOOD) Dean Edge Q 6er i planned to bring along as a last resort.... and i fucking HATED it. it's like 3 times as heavy as the Dinger i have and AWKWARD to play. the string spacing is all tight and jankety, it sounded okay (i LURV my rig), but it feels.... not good... to play.

so i think as soon as i get some mics for practice sorted and a sampler trigger thing for mah drummer boy taken care of, i'm defo gonna order a second one. i feel silly bringing a $2 g'ish pedalboard and ONE over a thousand dollar bass to gigs that pay out $200 for the whole band tops, might as well bring TWO espensive buggers..... right?
