"If Calista Flockhart were an acoustic bass, this would be her."

11 string bass???

I heard Joe G is selling his Ibanez Artist and replacing it with this:

I'll be at their next gig yelling STAIRWAY!! STAIRWAY!!!

How about this one:

This double bell 5-valve euphonium was made in 1917. The fifth valve is used to open the second bell that sounds the same note as the main bell.

BTW: What's buggin' me though is that after I bought myself two (!) Roland V-Drums kits, they update the whole range with this:

[you need the latest Flash player for this] ... forget their video presentation ... it sucks.

Judging from a video elsewhere on the net, this kit is a real killer ... stunning sounds, perfect response, as close to acoustic sounds as you can get (yeah, I know, but I live in an apartement and would also rather have a real acoustic set).

The video: TD-20 (for Real player)

So, I guess I have to shell out another $2000 - $3000 for the brain and a pad or two.
