I spent decades playing guitar and bass in rock bands, but I never thought I'd be able to play classical guitar until I found Parkening's guitar method books. Now I'm hooked, especially on adaptations of Renaissance lute pieces for classical guitar. It takes me literally months to learn one.

No Spotify Unwrapped for me, this year. I stopped using Spotify a while back and I'd suggest that you do the same and buy music directly from your favorite bands. Spotify is a huge rip-off for all musicians, but especially the little (metal) guys. #metalsky

Sounds really great!

Four basses

I also have an Epi. They're all good. I find I really can't use the EB3 for big venues because the sound guys around here have never seen or heard a Gibson bass and they have no idea how to eq it. It works well in the recording studio, though. It gets a nice, deep rumble.
