Heck, my interest started with taking photos of basses.
Now I'm on to landscapes, sometimes including basses.

As much as I love this club, it's members, and it's basses (soppy, I know  ), I have lost interest in the rest on TB. That combined with studies taking up a lot of my time now means I don't come here much anymore. For the last few months I haven't been able to give this club the attention it deserves and needs, and believe me I feel quite bad about it!
So without further adieu, please welcome your new head honcho; Mr. Darkstrike!  I know he'll give you guys all the love and attention that you deserve.  
Treat him nicely folks, and I'll pop in every now and then to check out the great pics this club always has.
Thanks guys,
Former 'El Presidente', ROON | ZOINKS!
We're going through Presidents faster than the former Soviet republic, post Gorbachev era.....
Happy Trails Roon, but don't be a stranger!

And I am glad to see someone did that. Rondo ran out of necks when I got the idea....maybe a fretless P? Hmmm.....

Practice got canceled. The keyboardest had the flu (not swine) and he had to go into cover for a bartender tonight so no practice tonight. I doubt the guitarist will notice when we get together to work on a new prog piece I wrote.
You could always buy the black P bass and one of the jazz basses with the block neck and throw the P neck on the unused jazz body and throw it up for sale. |

Good luck with your studies, Josh .
All the best,
Andy | Oh Andy, you sook. I'm not leaving for good, I just don't come on enough to give this club as much attention as it needs. Hence my 'resignation'. I want this club to be in good hands, and I believe our friend Darkstrike will take good care of it. I'll definitely still be in contact with you, and everyone else here. Quote:

I have everything ready for when I get that $160 together soon. Difference is my pickguard is also black... and the tuners, and bridge, and knobs... BLACK and maple!
Pics only when I'm done - and no number until I do please!

I woukld have probably done just that, but in the last 3 months I owe a lawyer, a fine to a court, my employer an advance on my pay, my computer died and my car blew the motor last week. And right before all the merriment listed here, I put an expensive mountain bike on layaway. So, funds are slightly redirected at the moment.
I did just replace tihe computer and the car though, so there is forward progress.

I assume the pre-qualifications are a black body and a maple neck?
p.s. he DOES also have a black strap to go with that beautiful 6 sting, can't we get him some points for that at least Darkstrike? |

It is the most black and maple, non black and maple bass around.
