🎸 Guitar Collection Pt. 3: B.C. Rich Masterpiece Mockingbird Bass 

This bass has a story. 

Alec talks about her brief stint as the bassist in a Christian metal band, getting interviewed by the legendary "Stryper Mom" Janice Sweet, and... being too much of a menace to stay there for long. 💀 

Shortly afterward, Alec started Varkan. 

Sometimes some things fall apart so more suitable things can fall together. 🤘

What are some of your weirdest band stories?
