BreadBin Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 I reckon @NancyJohnson is going to be envious 🙂 2 Quote
NancyJohnson Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 Nothing to see here. Move along. Bwahahaha! You've left this to me in your will, huh? 2 Quote
mangotango Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 (edited) Wow, wouldn't have thought that would be my kind of thing... and yet, seeing those photos, it very definitely is. Edit: Since my original post, I had the chance at the SEBB to play this bass and I would rank it easily in the top 5 basses that I've ever played, out of a cast of thousands...Shape of it and all that, it should be way too rawk'n'roll for an old jazz guy like me; but really, I'd be willing to overlook that......
