This has become my newest hobby, building these mini basses. Just something fun for display. Other than the pickups, everything else is assembled and functions exactly like a full size bass.
Is that your Coke machine?Thanks! The mini P was compliments of @bassdude51 who graciously gifted it to me.
Yep, it's a 1950 Vendo I bought for $35.00 over 30 years ago. During my honeymoon [32 years ago] our best man went to Coke to purchase the proper paint and refinished it. It holds about 2 1/2 cases of your favorite beverage, keeping it ice cold. Had it serviced by Coke about 20 years back which cost $50.00 to replace the cooling fan.Is that your Coke machine?

At the time my wife asked why I was hauling that rusty piece of $#it into the house. After it was refinished she said if we ever get divorced the only thing I want is the Coke machine.droolThat was a sweet deal.
