Check my profile and you'll see my '96 Noel Redding sig. Jazz bass. This one and my Modulus VJ were stolen from me back in Feb.'05 from a club in Akron, Ohio. It broke my heart as I had no idea just how connected I was to that bass what with all the work I had done to it to make it the killer growl machine. After watching ebay for four months I found them both from the same seller(was'nt the thief), alerted the cops and had them back in days! So it is actually this one and my '88 Spector NS-2 that I will not sell, trade or part with.

well, it looks like I always knew what I would end up with... here's a teenie proud of his Yamato neck-through, small body and neck-heavy like no other bass... mine for only 500 Dollars, heckufalot of money for my parents.

I don't know if there was a distributor for Alembic gear in Germany back in 1983. I knew about Stanley and Mark King in those days, but never thought I would be able to afford a bass like theirs in a lifetime.

My favorite guitar has got to be my Telecoustic. I traveled everywhere with it and learned most of the coolest songs on it. I have never been able to play as good as I did on this guitar. I remember I was in Ohio with it and I took it out of it's gig bag and people started to laugh at it. After playing Sultans of Swing they shut up. As soon as I got home from that trip, I put the bag on my shoulder and the strap broke. The top cracked and started to seperate from the body. I was so sad.

Dang, Joe, that stinks! If it's just the top separating, I'm sure you could have it fixed, though. A buddy of mine recently backed over his 1964 Gibson J45 (in a hard case) and it actually cracked the sides and the top. It's back in action now and sounds great!
