Here's the tail end of Dean Town...

and then suddenly I'm tempted by the fruit of another...

Maybe some poor judgment on Markos part but I'm still hanging in there, when I get this bass it's gonna have stories.

Exactly!

I'm thinking we're involved in a Ponzi scheme where the currency used is basses.

Yup me too. My "build my own" plans flew out he window with a sort of unexpected move, now all the tools and space are covered in moving boxes.
