Nice lineup. I never used them 'cause I couldn’t find a reasonably priced pre-CBS. Besides, I grew up playing Ricks, so I had a hard time dealing with the Fender necks. After over 25 years I finally sold off the last of my electric gear this past year, leaving me with only my Double (upright).
Dang, I was hoping you’d own at least a Jazz or Precision! [;)]
After years of the Rickenbacher necks, which are about a half inch thick (slight exageration), the Precision was like trying to play the business end of a baseball bat.
I do agree though, I was hoping to see a Fretless Jazz amongest his collection.
Me likes da low end!!
Never enjoyed fretless basses, though…as primarily a slapper, I need me frets!
Fretless sure does sound cool, though…
And the good ol’ Rickenbacker 4001 is a great bass!
But that’s for another forum…
Back to Sturmtigers, have you ever seen one fire a round, Ausf? There’s some great footage of just that on the Tamiya Tiger CD-ROM. Whoooooosh! Kinda like those big bugs launching butt-charges into space in “Starship Troopers.”
I came across a site that had a still of it and a notice stating that due to copyright laws, he can no longer show the clip. Probably because it became part of a published CD. I haven’t heard of this one.
So it’s a Tamiya product, Does it run on Mac?
Yeah, the 4001 is sweet, but you don’t want to hit it too hard. [;)]
Yup, it runs on Mac. Check out the recent thread about it here at FSM. One our members wrote it!
