Title: 12 String Bass
Post by: keyboardistmatt on Sun, 2006-05-07, 02:03:10
Today, (6th) I went to the London Guitar Show, (seeing as my second instrument is Bass Guitar) and while I was there, I made it my mission to find a 12 string bass.

I found one, and played it! *ola*

It sounded wicked!


I just wanted to share that with everybody. *horns*

Cool man! I hope you got a nice day there.
What exactly is a Guitar Show? A big room with all sorts of guitars you can buy? Or...


Keyboardistmatt, your mission objective is to infiltrate the London Guitar Show and finding the ultimate instrument '12 string bass'. Your local contact will help you once you get there. The final goal in this mission is to actually play the instrument and make it sound wicked. Make sure nobody sees you at any cost. We keep contact through CODEC. My frequency 140.25.
Good luck!


I've played to much Metal Gear...

Yep! That's it; a kind of 'convention' where loads of manufacturers invade Wembley Exhibition Centre and show off the latest gear! *horns*

12 String basses sound wicked don't they!?

John Paul Jones uses them! The title track from his 'Zooma' album is riddled with 10 and 12 string basses!
