Re: ATTN: Bassists



MICHAEL -
    i suggest you also look at the CONKLIN MOBILE ELECTRIC UPRIGHT (MEU) 
BASS -

1. 34" scale, magnetic + peizo pu's, midi-ready. sounds, plays + looks 
great.
can actually "wear" it w/ a strap or play it on a stand
2. they are about to deliver mine - white metalflake (yee-ha!)...played it 
in
the booth for them @ winter NAMM '98 here in LA. bass was still in 
development
but playable. happy to say it caused a bit of stir. BILL CONKLIN is very
artist-oriented and a brilliant instrument maker. plus one helluva guy. 
same
for PHIL,his right hand man. they built me a 5 string a few years ago that
combines the aesthetics of a '50's fender w/ ultra cool contmporary
electronics...digressions aside, the CONKLIN MEU is awesome. i'm planning 
on
plugging mine into my nord lead 2 + my sampler to open a real big can of 
major
bass whoop-ass...peace,
                        paul
