Just got it the other day from my local head shop, $70. Love it so much, diffused downstem and ice catcher. Simple straight tube, gonna ball park 12-14". Had it for less than a week, already had to clean it, got it nice and dirty, so stoked
its sad to see the JBD slandered by being placed on a piece like this. while JBD used to be a high end tube maker years ago, after operation pipe dreams shut them down, the company name was sold to a company making cheap junk china glass. unless your taking a vintage JBD from like a decade ago, which would be a grommet style not GonG, its just cheap china junk trying to make a quick buck off the JBD name that used to be legit.
At least they paid for the rights to put the JBD insignia on their pieces. So it's a step up from the Chinese knock-offs that slap RooR logos on their glass.
regardless of the JBD hate, nice pickup OP. only thing i would recommend is switching out the slide. i like the placement of the downstem.. means barely any water.
a word from "mr. baker" himself : http://forum.grasscity.com/bongs-bu...jerome-baker-designs-bong-2.html#post14359809 ill post my jbd later. it's awesome
That sure sounds like Jason. I tend to agree with him. Just so you know, "mr. baker" isn't a real person. Jason Harris created Jerome Baker Designs after Jerry Garcia died and named it after him and getting baked. That's how Jerome Baker came about, Jerry and getting baked.
