No No Just being a gentleman.  Glad you asked.  In the middle of the accolades for you I jumped in with the doom & gloom.  I was merely begging your pardon for interrupting the love-in, which I was feeling, BIGTIME.  Love you.  I was so aggravated coming in from reading all those above mentioned posts that I came to the general discussion thread to shout out a warning.  

 I could've done a better job of that.  I big footed bass man style. Come in on the ONE, mi hermano hirsute.
LOL!  Love you too, my dear.  I am really enjoying all this virtual flirting!  So, four or five-string????

I apologize for hijacking the conversation, but my personal favorite (at least in terms of a 34" scale / 24 fret model), is my 1997 Wal MK3 beech 5 string. Carry on then.....

Hell yeah. I can't even manage a 4 string, and that's a monster, but my boy Justin Chancellor of Tool got me into Wal back in the 90's.
View attachment 522 (How do I increase pic size?)

I've got this peavy rock bass from the eighties that was about 40 pounds, 3 pick-ups, really cool! I'm a terrible player of all things stringed though.

Also Jewy, you never answered by question about Lotus guitars from way back. Are they any good? I found a beat up one on the street. The head stock look cheap and chinese-ish but the guitar is really, suggesting good to a know-nothing like me. Wondering if it's worth restringing and trying to sell? Or if it's crap.

I'll post a pic soon.

My buddy just got a Fretless Bass, and it's TOO KOOL FOR TOOL...I mean School....(I love TOOL Pun Intended)

 
WAL makes amazing basses. I didn't know Justin Chancellor played one... I just know they were made famous by Geddy Lee in 80s Rush era. I believe Tool's original bass player played a Rick.....Paul D'Amour I think it was.. And the Rick of course was made famous by Ged in the 70s. Along with Chris Squire.

I know Tool is heavily inspired by Rush.... their bass players seem to be at the very least!

Id love to just play a Wal. Dont really see them in the states, they're British made. But correct me if im wrong..

 
Your bass is beautiful.   /default_wub.png I didn't know you cared!  /default_wink.png  /default_tongue.png Mines the The Funkinator.  Never change the strings.  Da greasy chicken funk be on da one hand, da blues on da udder, me brudder.

 
Dear lord Bman, that J bass is a beauty. Just gorgeous. And so 70s looking! Natural color, pickguard is that tortoisy 70s look. It screams 1974 for sure. You are a lucky man.

 
Thank you.  I've had that bass for 30 years come March.  Paid $400 cash at a pawnshop.  Borrowed the money from my mother & my GF.  The bass is still wit me, GF is wife; mommy has passed.  YES I paid 'em back

The wheel in the sky keeps on turning.

Thank you sir. I call that particular instrument "Blondie".

 
Yes indeedy.  I'll post a pic of the stealth fighter later...a 5 string!
Awesome! I'll be looking forward to it. In fact, might I suggest we start a "Post Your Axe" thread, or something along those lines so we have an easy to find place for these fine instruments? I'll be glad to move this one later, but thought I'd share one of my favorite acoustics. A custom made Greg Bennett, given to me for my 40th birthday by two of my long time clients. Primarily a conversation piece here in my office, but does see a little action from time to time!

whos the hot chick jewy?
You mean the one in the picture at the top? Actually, she's the one the guitar was originally built for. Maybe we have some music fans here on DBG who can figure it out.

  4. crimp @ crimp: glad youre good buddy
  5. CalFresh @ CalFresh: Thanks everyone. My family and I are safe ATM. @mellowella thank you, but they cleaned me out. the shelves are empty but I'm hoping to call in some favors to restock ASAP. @xenxra I will reach out to set up a secure comms channel for us. Thanks again all. Yesterday was tough, but the support I've received from those I can share is with has been a Godsend.
  6. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Mad love to you and your family @CalFresh
  7. xenxra @ xenxra: @CalFresh if you are able to DM me (in a secure manner) the transactions associated with your btc theft, i can look into that part for you at least. i;m still 99% certain if the fbi didn't discard my leads they could have gotten some of my coins back and considering you had your coins stolen within the us, you have a much better chance of recovery than me. unless they went through mixers i could probably trace them myself.
  8. O @ Outsider9173: @CalFresh Haven't been here long but I want to wish you a fast recovery
  9. crimp @ crimp: neck spine surgery 8 ribs broke and scalp split onen about 6 inches
  10. crimp @ crimp: need some help dude im so injured its not even funny dm me for details just need someone willing to help me fust for a week
  11. CnC5 @ CnC5: @CalFresh if theres anything i can do brother lmk!
  12. M @ Mokachin0: @CalFresh email me I may be able to assist
  13. mellowella @ mellowella: I will always remember what you did for me the very first time I donated. I have been waiting to pay that kindness forward.
  14. mellowella @ mellowella: @CalFresh are you and your family safe? You’ve helped me in a pinch and were more than generous, and I’m sure you’ve helped others. How can we help you? Does it help at all if we completely buy out what’s left? Maybe that gives time and funds to restock and rebuild? I don’t want to break any rules here, but please let us know if we can do anything. All on your time of course.
  15. CalFresh @ CalFresh: thanks guys. I'm pulling together what I have left and leaning on the kindness of folks who support me to restock my shelves so that I can keep the lights on. Having my savings drained and my security vanish in an instant is paralyzing and the repercussions will only be realized in the coming days and weeks. for now I'm just trying to stay focused on the immediate priorities for ensuring this doesn't. cause cataclysmic failure to the life I've built for my children and I.
  16. H @ hotdog45: @CalFresh hey man if I can do anything, anything at all to help you get back on your feet let me know. Truly my heart goes out to you. I sent you an email also
  17. G @ gfunkster: @CalFresh im really sorry to hear that. But remember karma is real my man. They just fd their karma for a long time.
  18. Telp @ Telp: @CalFresh Thats so fucked man. Im glad you’re safe! And wishing you the best. What a bunch of scumbags.
  19. 0 @ 0osten: @CalFresh wow man.....I'm glad you're safe. Keep us updated, prayers for you bro
  20. CalFresh @ CalFresh: everyone here is safe. I was here alone.
