I love the barefoot deal too. Does anyone know what that black strip is between her bridge and pickguard? I keep wanting to ask her...and anytime I get a chance, I forget to ask...
Edit: Just asked her...waiting hopefully for a reply
If I'm ever in FL I'll bring a cam and get IT for you.
Oh, and your b & w cwb was amazing. You should repost that one.
Deal. So when are you visiting?
BTW - I'm going to be in Illinois from 10 December through Christmas. I'll be south, but maybe we could figure out a nice half-way point to catch coffee or a drink?
This one?

Hmmmmmm... something better than spoons?!?!?!![]()
BTW, that's a gorgeous Lakland you've got. I really miss mine (in my avatar and profile picture). The Dingwall is pretty, too. I've never tried playing one but it looks fun.
AWESOME! I don't mind a bit of a drive.Visiting Rebel and family?
That's the one. Album cover worthy.![]()
FM, the outdoor pic is my favorite so far I think, all kinds of win to this one.

Thank you so much!
Yep - going to meet my new baby boy. I'm thinking about taking a couple of my bass babies, too. Reb was born on the anniversary of Cliff Burton's death (and my daughter was a huge Metallica fan), so I'm going to be taking obligatory Baby with Bass pics. And Emeri (the 2yo granddaughter) likes to sit on Mimi's lap and play bass with me, so we'll need BabyGirl with Bass pics, too.
We'll figure out the meeting place - along the way. And anyone who wants to join us - let's just make it the more the merrier. How's that?
This pic is my favorite of Tat, too. So damn cute!
Tat and FM, if you do manage to meet up (I'm so jealous!), please be sure to indulge us with a chick with chick pic.![]()
Basses are a requirement. Don't leave them in a cold car though, bring them in the house right away.
Must have baby (and BabyGirl) with bass pics. If either of them becomes a famous bass player those pictures will be priceless.
Sounds great! Anybody else in the general area? PA, you'd only have to drive across Indiana!We could all meet at a DSW!

Yanno - FM, we could meet at something like Champaign or Effingham, then drive over to Indy together to meet PA. Hang for the night in Indy and go find some music - we could totally change that city.![]()

The midwest would never be the same!
I expect that strip by the bridge is a foam mute.
