The Dark Lord Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I thought the scenario of 81 guitars hanging up on a washing line amongst a team of tokie chugging Rastafarians, all sitting in front of a big log fire in Edinburgh, while blowing the smoke away from the back of the headstocks was a great image. I'm sure that happens all the time up there. Quote
haimesy Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 My fault.. got a bit frustrated , people suggesting the bass had been in some sort of fire.. When I was told by guys I have known for years and trust 100% the full story of the bass.. Anyway .. I never said anyone called me a liar , I said I felt like one... Never mind life's to short .. Cheers john Quote

Cheers john [/quote] One of the ( many ) great things about Fender basses is that they are so robust that you could keep them in a kipper smoker for twenty years and they will still work fine . This one has cleaned up beautifully and you have got a lovely bass there . I hope you have a lot of fun playing it . Quote
