I saw it Last night. I have actually played a Bass with one but truthfully I didnt use the Bar that much. I really DOnt care to ROute the bass or do anything other than put the bridge on ...which brings up a interesting point . I forgot that there was a Bad Ass and a Bad Ass 2 which is a Direct remount . I am not interested in anything that I would need to change at all ..IE Drilling other holes ect . --- In [email protected], "JohnL" <john_lapietra@...> wrote: > > > OK, has anyone ever seen one of THESE: > > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bassplace/photos/album/226200695/pic/18600\ > 75710/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&count=20&dir=asc > <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bassplace/photos/album/226200695/pic/1860\ > 075710/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&count=20&dir=asc> > > It's a beefy SOLID BRASS DiMarzio Bridge, that prob weighs more than a > pound... > > Also check this out: > > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bassplace/photos/album/226200695/pic/12558\ > 33556/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&count=20&dir=asc > <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bassplace/photos/album/226200695/pic/1255\ > 833556/view?picmode=&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&count=20&dir=asc> > > It's a Genuine (made in USA) Kahler Floating Tremolo Bridge (mounted on > my vintage G&L Interceptor), that is not blocked off at all and stays in > tune AWESOME...
