where are your volume and tone knobs?

EDIT: if you purposely didnt put any because jerry only plays with his bass all the way up. major props to you.

nah, well i play with it all up anyways.. but i made a cool little control cavity on the back of the bass.. volume and tone

Just wondering, I am a Huge IM fan, I have over 100 Iron Maiden LP's & I still need 5 of the studio LP's.
:D
They are one of the reasons I got into Guitars in the first place.
That & Derek Riggs Awesome artwork.
 
^^ and a Fender Pro Reverb amp. I get a nice sound from the Les Paul with Tube combo.
 
Here's my guitar. Its a Laguna LD2, its an unknown brand but meh, that doesn't bother me, as long as it sounds good. Plus Laguna plants a tree for every guitar they make, so that made me feel good knowing the wood for my guitar was being replenished. Its a 7/8 body so its a little smaller than a dreadnought but I quite like it. Its a solid spruce top and a mahogany body, standard fair I guess. Its been an excellent guitar for $300 to attempt to learn on.

Maybe one day I'll be good enough to justify a Les Paul Standard and a nice Vox tube amp, but for now I better concentrate on getting my chord changes down, haha.

P.S. - sorry for the crappy pictures, i had to use my phone's camera
 
Got a Gibson SG Standard in Heritage Cherry on Friday. Very nice guitar. It's a lot lighter than I thought it would be. I originally bought a Les Paul Studio (a black one), but the input jack turned out to be faulty. I was going to get a direct replacement but the SG was just £50 more. So I went for it. It's an incredibly versatile guitar and feels great to hold. I'm in love with it. But not in a sexual way. Almost though...
 
At work right now, but I use a Yamaha RBXJM2 John Myung sig bass.. sounds great.. Deep MM sound, with amazing action!
