Jay Funk Dawg Posted January 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 he apparently went straight back to SF after someone stole his gear this past summer and built a new "Magik Pipe" I'm not sure the entire story, like if it's now modified - I'll look into it!

bradm Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 According tohttp://www.jambase.com/Articles/16446/That-1-Guy-New-Gear.Tourthis time he's doing it with a brand new version of his self-designed instrument, The Magic Pipe. "We're not talking about a rub, polish & tweak – we're talking all new high grade aluminum and phosphor bronze, machined by the same machinist responsible for the Phoenix Mars Lander," says Mike Silverman, aka That 1 Guy. "I can do a whole range of new techniques with this new pipe," states Silverman. "It's more refined, I have a wider range of sounds and pitch. I can get the whole thing to move in a completely new way."Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
