>Let me tell you brother I was working a gig in Liverpool UK in late 1959 and this cat called Paul told me he was putting up a band and asked me if I could play anything for a side gig. I did some tryouts with them but the issue was that the other top shot on group John didn't think there was room for two basses in the band even though it sounded wild live brother, on those rehearsal.
>So me and Ringo had a idea that we combined a guitar and bass and put it on a different scale but in the end it John, who was a bit of a jabroni, threatened to quit if he didn't get his way and I wasn't about to put my friend Paul down like that for a hobby.
>They ended up pretty big and I lost a bit of money on that, but for me it worse that me and Ringo didn't patent the guitar bass thing. Now you see them baritone guitars on stores and I am thinking, Brother, that could been called the Hulkatoneguitar
