Tough crowd.
Anyone notice the OP that said the luthier is a good friend? Think maybe the girl in the shots might be, also? Lots of class around here.
I agree with this. I know that if she saw this thread, she'd probably be twelve kinds of hurt and three kinds of angry. I prefer pix of just the basses, myself, but I think there's a big diff between not needing or ornament a pic of a bass and making a judgement call on the girl's looks.
I think that we get so inundated by pics of Superlatively attractive Hollywood types that no one else ever gets a fair shake anymore.
So, why don't we stick to the basses and leave the poor gal alone?
