In this economic climate we probably are more worried about resale than we normally would be.

That said, the case for my '97 Precision has '8 Ball Joe' sprayed on it. The chap I bought it from said it was done by the guy who owned it before him. It's an excellent band name and it's now my Precision's name.

Looks awesome.

Character! We all want our stuff to be individual, yours clearly is.

I think the relative cost of gear (ie as a % of typical income) is a fraction of what it used to be in the 60s-70s, well good gear anyway. Things have changed.

Absolutely - when I bought my first Fender Musicmaster in 1979 it cost me £110 - my gross income at the time was £2,500!
