I won one a couple of years ago in an online contest. It *is* very good at one particular thing: If I as much as turn 90 degrees in either direction while playing the bass, the wire instantly tangles itself into unexplainable knots worse than a slinky. I suppose this isn't a problem for musicians whose shoes are nailed to the floor when they play, but that's not me. |

Don't they realize that a bass only sounds best using 500 MCM welding wire with a color coordinated outer covering? Eisboch |

I bought a used Telecaster one time and the guy threw in a little practice amp and a couple of cables. They were the same way, stiff as a board and every damned time you moved, they'd get tangled up. I somehow got it wrapped around a mike stand and it somehow knotted itself around it! |

At home, though, it seems silly to use batteries. |
