The Pic is of a 4 string bass, while the description says 5 string. Well What is it? I have played a 4 string model and it has good feel/action/tone etc. Well worth the 229.99 pricetag. But is there a 5 string version????
OMG, Sting, Stinger, Stingeroonie... I love you man. Police reunion, Smart idea! The Soul Cages, Fields of Gold, Seven Days, briliiant writing! Symphonicities - Really.....? Really....? Okay, i guess everyone has to do a muzak record in their life - NOT!!! Sting, go classical and stay there... Remember, I love you, man.
Nick Davis and the boys hit a homerun! This is the ultimate version, it you missed the LAMB tour back in 74-75, then don't miss this, it contains the original sli9des used behind the band during the Lamb tour. Get this NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!!
What's great about it: Contains a slide show using the original slides from 1974-75 tour
Enjoy crisp, clean and defined sound with this pair of 14" hi-hat cymbals.

Great for students!! These have a decent responce and feel - open or closed. But to play the cymbals of the pros, go with the Zildjian K - They're hand hammered, and have a more pro sound and feel. But for what these are, and for the price, they're great!!!
What's great about it: Solid B20 Bronze
What's not so great: Machine hammered and lathed...

I've been playing guitar for 30+ years. My first guitar was a Yamaha Classical. I think if it were a steel stringed guitar, I'd have never advanced as quickly and as easily as I did. This Cordoba is the perfect instrument for beginners and Classical enthusiasts alike.
This Cordoba has great action, tone, and feel. The neck is a little fatter than steel string guitars, but this naturally improves hand and finger positioning and refines the muscle tone of the hand. This is so because it forces you to stretch the fingers more than a steel stringed instrument does - but with less finger-tip pain!
I recommend this instrument for Classical guitar enthusiasts, as well as parents considering a first guitar purchase for their student children.
What's great about it: Perfect for beginners
What's not so great: so few people play these anymore it seems..

The only tool for students to really learn timing

This is key for anyone wishing to play in a band, or as a solo performer. This electronic metronme provides beats and clicks for most any tempo for use in training students how to synchronize their playing to the beat of a given piece of music. It's great for any and all instrumentalists, Especially Drummers! Pro's can use this to perform, practice, jam, or compose with.
A Must for all beginners, and a fun box to jam with for pro's.
Some Old, Some New... Band member's attics were certainly rooted through to bring you many of these fine gems. If you're a Phil fan you're gonna love this, but it's really centered around the Gabriel era of the band.
The 75 Lamb show has been given an overhaul and so it sounds very modern. And why not? Its got 1997 re-recorded vocals by Gabriel and Collins and guitar by Steve Hackett. Its a reunion of sorts, but if you've never heard this era of Genesis, this would certainly be a great place to start.
What's great about it: Amazing glorious stellar remarkable
What's not so great: The live stuff has 1997 re-recorded Vocals and Guitar
This guy has graced Peter Gabriels stuff, Stings stuff, Clapton's stuff, Jon Anderson's stuff, and he was the original Keyboardist for Bruce Springsteen.. All that aside, This is a fusion diamond. Do not hesitate to get this High Energy bomb blast of tone and melody and harmony... See www.davidsancious.com for more on him.
What's great about it: Love love love this record...
What's not so great: Took too long to be pressed to CD!!!
I saw the band in June 2007, they were amazng, Snakes and Arrows is their best album since Power Windows for me personally... This tour's setlist was simply amazing... From Entre Nous, to Circumstances, to Natural Science (sorry, i never tire of this song..) and Every song they did from S&A were incredible. If you like Old Rush, New Rush, In Between Rush, You must have this live set.
