Things I missed while in the US: 1) family 2) my stereo @aguilaramp rig 3) my fretted Modulus 6 string bass. :) Please also note the rather ingenious use of guitar stands to angle the speakers up at me :)

Last one from Friday's @dBstudiosltd gig: 1st time I've mic'd an amp in many years. But in a room this good, with an amp that sounds like this, it would've been a massive waste not to. Need to go back there and record more!
