Simple and to the point, and so is the tone! Everyone knows how much I like the limba+P-90 combo and this one is no exception. Growl Growl Growl. The halfbreed has no trouble keeping up with the P-90s either, that is one smokin pickup.

Scott Faf' introduced me to the African Blackwood. It is very tight grained and dense, looks like ebony with brown streaking but has serious tap tone. I like it and will be recommending it to anyone that like the feel of ebony but with less snap.  (Ron Thorn)
