Greatest Prog Band of ALL TIME

September 29, 2024

Twisted Sister took Prog to a whole new level
The video for their smash hit "I Wanna Prog"

Eat yer heart out, Peter Gabriel

In case you're having trouble falling asleep:

I know there are some people who would say Twisted Sister is not the greatest Prog band of all time, even that they are not Prog at all. To that, all I have to say is:

You're all worthless and weak !

Actually I really dig Peter Gabriel, both his early weird stuff and his later pop. This is brilliant. Leave a comment on what you think it is really about. ( Hint: not trains. )

Conversion Necks

A conversion neck is one that can convert an instrument from one scale length to another with no other modification. A common conversion is 34" to 32". By overhanging the 20th fret, or leaving it off, you can use the stock bridge location on the body, just adjust for intonation. Such a neck will work on any standard bass body. A conversion from 34" to 30" requires overhanging two frets, or losing one or both.
