Love it!I've decided my journal needs more Foster Brooks.
Seriously Mark I would love to get one but I already have a pedal board that can be seen from space! If I got one of those and did the spastic dance of the Theremin...Mrs. S would take a head!
Yeah I came close to actually getting one once but I have enough problems with fretless bass... At least on that I have a point of reference. LOL!Seriously Mark I would love to get one but I already have a pedal board that can be seen from space! If I got one of those and did the spastic dance of the Theremin...Mrs. S would take a head!
Ultimately though, I guess you're using your ears in the same general way.
By Source, Fair use, File:Paul Tanner with Electro-Theremin.jpg - Wikipedia This is a picture of Paul Tanner with the Electro-Theremin:
And I think of Professor Tanner who taught the History of Jazz class that I took at UCLA. He is the one who actually played the Electro-
Theremin on Good Vibrations. Among other things, he played trombone for the Glenn Miller Orchestra from 1938 to 1942 and for the ABC Orchestra. What a great class that turned out to be! It turned me into a life-long jazz fan. I still listen to music he played for us in that class including Miles Davis' Sketches of Spain and Billy Strayhorn's very sad Blood Count (written while he was in the hospital according to Tanner)."Tanner developed and played the Electro-Theremin, an electronic musical instrument that mimics the sound of the theremin. He can be heard performing on the opening title theme music of the 1963-66 CBS-TV comedy series "My Favorite Martian." The Electro-Theremin is featured on several 1966-1967 recordings by The Beach Boys, with Tanner as the guest player ;[5] most notably on the Capitol Records singles "Good Vibrations", "Wild Honey", in the album track "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times", and in the then-unreleased Dennis Wilson's song "Tune L" found in the 1967 archival release "1967 – Sunshine Tomorrow".

IT JUST GOT REAL!!!!!!
Having played fretless (shhhhh, don't tell any of my other guitarist friends...you know) the Theremin would be easier...LOL
Mark, I love the wood bass. What type of wood is that?
Splated maple

Thank you!!It's absolutely gorgeous.
Now that is a pretty spalted maple beauty...but I call offside your honour on the fret lines!
No choice. I prefer no lines, just a naked board. But with this model they don’t offer that unfortunately.

At first I thought that was an actual fuse, till I realized it is huge. Nice Avon bottle.
I know, right? Gotta love those kooky bottles!
First I've seen of that one. Very cool.I know, right? Gotta love those kooky bottles!
First time seeing that style here as well. I love it.
I've always been scared to death of fretless boards. I don't think my inner tuner is functional enough for that.
