					<description><![CDATA[Just a few random things today that caught my eye.  The Hagstrom 8-string bass pictured above with players Noel Redding, among others, was recently re-issued.  seems like not a bad choice for live rock bands.   Tom Petersson of the not-terrible band Cheap Trick has used a similar contraption for years.   Yes I am joking btw [&#8230;]]]></description>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em>The electric bass Jamerson played was a stock 1962 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fender_Precision_Bass">Fender Precision Bass</a> which was dubbed &#8220;The Funk Machine.&#8221; Jamerson bought it after his first Precision (a gift from fellow bassist Horace &#8220;Chili&#8221; Ruth) was stolen. It had a three-tone sunburst finish, a tortoise-shell style pickguard, and chrome pickup and bridge covers (the latter containing a piece of foam used to dampen sustain). He typically set its volume and tone knobs on full. This instrument was also stolen, just days before Jamerson&#8217;s death in 1983. To date, it has not been found.</em></p>
