...as there is no better way to start year 55 for me !! This was an idea Grace tried to interest me in about 18 months ago, a SB-8 set up like 2 bass guitars, where the Bass side is the Classic C G D A tuning, but the melody side is E A D G electric bass guitar tuning. Way way fun, can't wait to plug her in to my double Ampeg SVT 400TH rack [which before you ask, no I cannot lift it !!] that goes into two Trace Elliot single 15 cabs with the dual ports. Thanks again, as this fine instrument will inspire me for many years to come. Cheers !! |

Way cool, George! Don’t know if you ever record, but if you do, I’m looking forward to hearing from your new (2x signed) Stick bass! |

I actually do record, I maintain a full old school production 16 track analog recording studio which takes up most of my house, but the problem is I completely lack the technology to transfer music to computer. This is something which I will have to work on next. Thanks for the extra encouragement !! *sometimes that's all it takes to get things rolling..... |

very cool, And if you ever want to "connect" the two sides, just tune down the bass side by a half step and you will have interior DBR! |

Congratulations on ANOTHER Stick and yer bday! Just for the record I always wanted a StickBass (after the Ironwood) but went with a 12-string bamboo DBR as my second (and probably last) Stick. Although the string spacing is closer I am soooo used to it and I couldn't imagine playing a Dual Reciprocal Bass w/out those two high strings on either side. It's just part of me. And, Big George, you being a bassist first, you might be interested, I just got back my Danelectro Longhorn Re-Issue and inherited an Ibanez AEB5E-BK acoustic electric bass. So I'm set for awhile...HAVE FUN |

AnDroiD that sounds way cool !! greg you are not the first to suggest that tuning option to me, but I am stubborn and am truly in love with C G D A, and I also want that to be seperate from the E D A G, which - incidentally, that C makes for a real good thumb rest while playing along with some 1980s RUSH on the E A D G electric bass half
