My Day Job...Randy Jackson Came to the Factory today!

[Big Poppa]

It was Randy's Birthday yesterday and he is on a road trip and planned it around visiting our guitar factory in San Luis Obispo today...here is his birthday bass we made for hin

We got to jam...He is a monster bassist
here he is with my son Brian

Ok I know this thread is off topic but I will tie it into smoking...We had pizzas and salads brought in and his wife said "I am so bummed!...I only came for your BBQ!" I gave her a raincheck...she is a wonderful lady and was just kidding but she kept mentioning that she wanted more Big Poppa BBQ

Sweet BP! Thanks for sharing. Music may feed your soul, but BBQ takes care of the body.

Love that Birthday Bass. SHARP. Now I would start asking specs, but you probably already have them posted on EBMM forum, so I will go lurk over there.

Sparky, none are easier to play thatn others, more just a comfort thing. I have only ever played 5 String Fenders. Maybe BP will make me a deal I cant refuse on a new Music Man!
