Double helping of Burns in new Guitar & Bass
Posted: 15 May 2010, 12:42The new (July) issue of Guitar and Bass has a double helping of Burns.
The budget-price Cobra with new smaller Strat-size Trisonics gets a very favourable review and the photographs are of the 'red' version which comes out as distinctly Fiesta!
Those of a delicate constitution would be advised to skip over P.8, where a guy called Nick Packer has hacked around with a Marquee to make what he calls a Basstard - five normal guitar strings and a bass guitar A string in place of the guitar's lower E. This way he can be both a guitar player and a bass player in his band. The middle pickup has been ripped from it usual position and placed horizontally under the new bass string, with a separate output socket. As the sub-heading says, "Guitars aren't holy relics, they're tools" . . . . . .
