      In 2014 I was 15/16 and got into Thee oh sees. By this point i had been playing guitar for a few years and had done all my "required" music listening, but hadn't really gotten into many contemporary acts. John blew my mind and turned my world upside down. I had been recording a little bit of music at that point but once i saw Thee oh sees I knew i had to buckle down and do it. 6 years later and nothing has changed.

    No you're right it's a jazzmaster. They look quite different (3 jaguar style pick ups on the VI, four switches on one panel and a slightly different body shape) I'm tired of the number of people who try to look like gear nerds but can't tell a jazzmaster and a bass VI apart.

      Jazzmaster and if I’m remembering correctly it’s an octave pedal with a bass amp

    Drummer looks like he just watched "This is Spinal Tap" and is now fully consumed with the fear, and paranoia, of spontaneously combusting into a green mist on stage.
