Got to play a few Jerzy Drozd basses this past Sat. The guy remembered you, but I can't remember his name. :( He asked how you were liking your new fretless.

Anyway, they were pretty dreamy. One of the few top shelf basses I really dug.

The rig weren't bad too. Walter Woods head into a Schroeder 410(I believe) cab. Sweet!

Yikes!

What did you think of the WW?

Holy Grail of light-weight amps?

It was very nice, but not THAT nice. Way beyond the point of diminishing returns, IMO. I'd LOVE to pump that Schroeder with my 350 head tho.

Yeah, I was pretty impressed with the Schroeder. I didn't get a chance to pump it tho. Dayum, I wanna try one out with my SWR.:mad:

Anyway, I give them a icon14.gif

Ahh, so did you go over to his place in Palos Hills? What a basement store, eh! His name's Dan Lenard. Hopefully he remembers me in a good way. :p

 

What I played through I think the first time was Demetre and Accugroove. Second it was the PJB combo. Awesome stuff!

 

You know, I fell in love with the Jerzy looks. But fine. If they didn't impress the {censored} out of me playing them, I wouldn't own one, period! I was also impressed by some of his other gear, like the Stambaghs and the MTD and...

He had a table at some quitar show a friend invited me to. I'd have loved to visit his shop. Lemme know next time you go so I can go too. Seriously! :) [drool]

Can't afford to 'visit' his shop right now... :p

So, which ones did you play?

BTW, my JD fretless is just about the only bass I play any more.

BTW, at another booth, I got to play a $4K Fodera thru another Walter Woods & an Epiphani(sp).

 

Ya know, as nice as all that amplification gear was, I missed the personality of my SWR. I'll take both my 350 head & an SVT any day over one WW-type head.

They really shine in a live setting, and because of the quasi-folded horn design, they throw the sound out really far. I really want a pair of 1212s. :(
