Had some cool pix from last weekends Jazz fest, I wanted to share. Spam away about the clothes, I'm a big boy, I can take it!  And a picture with a slightly obstructed view of my favorite Flite cabs. Enjoy or don't, you make the call. LOL   |

I just can't think of anything too witty for the pants, there is just too much going on. 
I like the tobias. I have always wanted to wank around on one, but there are no good bass shops around here.

The Tobias is just a korean one with frets yanked and 34 coats of poly on the fretboard. The wings on each side are scheduled to be removed in the next week or so, I'm keeping the neck and building my own wings. Pix of that resurrection will follow soon.
And actually I think Vic would dig the outfit! LOL

I would have no problem with that at all. You're more than welcome to them. The top piece is nicer than the bottom wood wise, they never really matched in my opinion. They are 1 3/4 thick solid wood, well except for the control cavity.
I'll try and remember when I saw them off, and save you the cutoff. I'm shooting for just about the pickup edge for the cutoff so I have some spare wood to run through the jointer.
So you might have to fill in a 1/2 inch or so with other wood, or even cooler you might have a skinnier tobias body.
I'll be in touch.

Can I have the extra strings that'll be left over when you hack the sides? 
Was that the Corning gig? Glad to see you're toning down the sartorial splendor in yer old age!
When you going to bust out a few clips and scare the TB'ers anyway?

| | Fan Fret Fan and Builder | | Join Date: Mar 2004 Location: Anytown USA | | I was hoping the comics of TB would show up! Passinwind my favorite Uncle, I'm keeping the extra strings of course. And yes that was the Crystal City Jazz fest in Corning. One of these days I'll post some audio. And Digme seriously the reason why is much like why people climb Mount Everest.... because it's there. Mark, I normally try to match but for some reason I decided to break from tradition and throw all matching schemes out the window. And bmc yes they are mens pants bought only 10 years ago, so you're right they're coming back soon, I had someone in the audience yell MC Hammer, please this is Jazz!
I was hoping more of the focus would be on the axes, but that's OK I can laugh at myself too. LOL
