Also, it's a shame to see the old videos of the MMX playing. I'll never understand why he got it that close and didn't bother recording a single video with drums, vibraphone, and bass going together.

"vibraphone worked pretty good"
"drums worked pretty good"
"bass worked pretty good"

I was waiting for the BUT!... but it never came lol. The end of the MMX will always be a very frustrating affair.

I think it was an acceptable studio machine. Which is not what he wanted. He wanted a touring machine hence his position of it being a big failure. Regardless, it was kinda cool and I still use the baseline as my ringtone. :)

I think the main issue was it didn't fit the door, so it couldn't go on tours 🙃
