Old one:
Which strap button do you prefer using? I'm guessing that having to strap buttons is to help balance the bass and keeping it from having neck dive?
I always use the top one. I do not have any issues with neck dive, my ASAT balances extremely well.
Been a steady parade of basses in and out the door lately, so I thought a posterity shot was in order...
from top to bottom-
The Crown Royal Tiger /97 Tookay
The BoomSnake /96 Tookay Toofless
The Toro twins- The BBB and Rocky, both 84's
Absent/ camera-shy ( out on tour with a friend ) The Sea Hag / 82 Wunkay.
And yes, all the G&L's have/ had names....there was Shelley, The Hatchet, Marilyn, The Golden Bear, PigPen, Bart, etc....
........anybody got a cord?

Well I took the G&L plunge and won a USA L-2000 off ebay for a great price, so pics will be forthcoming!
Holy ****, Craig, I LOVE that fretless! Mines all black and sexy as hell and all, but dayum yours is art. Got any bigger pics?
And did you ever ID the strings on the Sterling?

Mike, I think the strings on the Sterling are the new Ernie Ball Slinky Coated. The 'Snake is wearing Fender tapewounds in this shot, but is currently strung with DR SunBeams. The neck on this thing is scary thin around the back, and does it growl! Mwah Central. Wired for OMG/ single coil/ parallel, too. I believe this is the only black swirl fretless Tookay in existance.

Just got the 1K today - now I get what everyone is talking about! OMG is right - earth shattering tone. It's an '81 mahogany/ebony fretless. Had the '83 SB2 for a little while - really great feel. Can't decide which I like better. Bought both from TBers - thanks Matt and Rick.
