Alembic modded J bass
« on: October 31, 2005, 10:22:39 AM »
Saw Cold Blood(Bay Area funk band from the 70's) Saturday night.  Evan Palmerston, their current bassist (ex Montreaux band, Elvin Bishop) plays a pre-CBS Jazz bass that was modded (I think on Brady St.) with Series 1 electronics and separate bridge and tailpiece with sustain block.  Why did it make me think of Rami?

Me and my crazy contradictions....  Wish I could explain my love for (or obsession with) Alembics (particularly the Excel) and Fender Jazz Basses.  Kinda like a 60's 'Vette and a Mclaren F1.
