This is actually a bit upsetting. I've been advocating #GLguitars for the last several years. I thought they were doing well other than not being able to keep up w/ custom shop demand.

Not too long ago they made jazz style, hum cancelling MFD bass pickups. They seemed great. G&L said they'd sell them separately from a signature model later on. Never happened.

Last week I was thinking of putting in a custom order for another Fallout bass.

Now, I really have to learn how to make all this stuff. I did before anyway (i.e. 7-string ext. range or 10-string multicourse bass w/ active jazz, hum canceling, multicoil pickups).

Playing around w/ my #NativeAudio #effectsPedals #pedalboard.

I am disappointed in the #EarthQuakerDevices tentacle octave pedal. It doesn't really do anything. On low notes it adds a meh-sounding distortion. I can't tell if it's even adding an octave on the highest notes or just making them sound a little brighter.

No wonder the guy was selling it. After the fact, I went to EQD's website & they say in the FAQ it's not really for #bass & might make bad noises. On guitar, to use above 12th fret.

I've relegated it for use exclusively after delay+reverb. It looks cool.

Anyways, this Frydead Fuzz sounds good.

I need to reorder the rest… 😅

Here's some photos of my #GLguitars #bassGuitar because why not.

Poor guy is sitting in storage right now. I don't have room for my entire collection all in one place.. 😅
Plus, if one area gets burglarized, then I still have other instruments elsewhere. So, HAH!
