Starboard Johnny aka Johnny Crab

About Me

"I'd rather wear out than rust out!"
My late Grandfather's response when asked
why he walked so many miles per day at his age."Every day we're standing in a time capsule,
Racing down a river from the past,
Every day we're standing in a wind tunnel,
Facing down the future coming fast"
Dad gave me a bass and an amp when I was 10. THANKS DAD!
Family,
job,
and band/music keep me pretty busy.

BTW: I've become convinced after 40+ years of having bass(es) to play/abuse that I prefer:
Set neck or neck-thru
Thunderbird body shape
Humbucking pickups
Steinberger(1980's synthetic) body & sound stability
Not Alembics(had one, too fragile on stage:neck flex)
The above rules go out the window if the bass was made by a Japanese company called "Greco". See BASS pics...
