Okay, so who's going to post the first NBD post?

I know, great looking bass. Not usually a fan of gold bridge, but on that color/finish, stunning. And, to answer your question. No. Actually, many people have lived long comfortable lives with only one kidney. Question is....how comfortable will you be living without that bass?

I'm actually a huge gold hardware fan. And I like basses in nontraditional finishes. And I also find StingRays to be the most beautiful basses. So it's a lethal combination (well, maybe only lethal if my one remaining kidney fails).

Are we allowed to buy basses when Talkbass is down?

If you can't start a TalkBass thread about your new bass, did you even really get one? It's like the "if a tree falls in the forest" question.

Well, not the first reply, and not a new bass, but...

I'll be writing a long story (with a happy ending) about this new arrival soon:

Well I had a NBD when the site when down, so I actually played it instead of posting. But now we are back so gratuitous post.

Are these like the babies born 9 months after a blackout?

I had literally written half a freakin’ novel about my new (old) bass and was uploading the edited pics when the site went down. I’ll try to recreate it sometime this weekend. The bass had been resurrected from unplayability, so I thought Easter was a particularly apropos day for the post. Here’s a teaser pic...View attachment 4229260

That is AWESOME! A little jealous. What exactly is it?
