Is your 75 MG for sale?...Aw dang. Sorry to hear of your crash and needing to move. Hope all works out in the best possible ways. I've spoken with my wife, and realized that even though I'd love to be the next Kasino kustodian, I need it about as much as I need another non-running rusty 75 MG. I would of course love to have a pic of the Kasino with my little PJB Double Four on top, but I'm afraid I am not able to be of use.
I would much prefer an Austin-Healey from the late 60s but, beggars can't be choosersIs your 75 MG for sale?...
...right?

We all have to look at compromises

I'd like to place a special order for one in red with a two piece flat windshield and a touring top. That reminds me that I need to see how Mesa Engineering is coming along with the Mesamobile...
Yer Pontiac. Sounds like spying to me!
Most things are for sale if the price is right! I keep saying I'm going to fix it up so that we have "his and hers" Midgets. So far, no progress in 20 years, so I think I'm seeing the sign.Is your 75 MG for sale?...
Yes, but to be fair, comparing a 60s Sprite vs. a 75 Midget, the Midget is slightly more comfortable, has a better heater, and improved safety features.I would much prefer an Austin-Healey from the late 60s but, beggars can't be choosers
Then there's my Mom's first car, in 1959 she went for a brand new bug eye : )Yes, but to be fair, comparing a 60s Sprite vs. a 75 Midget, the Midget is slightly more comfortable, has a better heater, and improved safety features.
Was that a good used-car-salesman line or what?
Yes, but hers was green. Dad said used to love handing the gas station attendant two dollars while asking them the fill it up, and then getting change back! He was driving his purchased new in 1955 Hemi Powered Desoto 2 dr hardtop in two tone light blue. That car could have carried some combos!
You're probably right. Having had a Bugeye next to my Midget at a couple shows, they are surprisingly roomy inside, thanks to the elimination of nearly all creature comforts and "safety" features!
Are those individual string mutes on your Ric?View attachment 7076567
Hello, all! I just wanted to share my precious combo that has become my #1 workhorse.
It has yet to see a gig, but as soon as the next one comes, this is what I'll be playing!
Amp is a GK Legacy 212 Combo. It gets LOUD
I would love a number if they're still being issued!
They are! Although they don't get much use from me, they're built into the bridge from the factory.
My Tim Commerford Stingray has the old style Stingray bridge with the individual string mutes. They're great for a little light muting for reggae.
Now that is a bass worth being proud of. Color me jealous!My Tim Commerford Stingray has the old style Stingray bridge with the individual string mutes. They're great for a little light muting for reggae.
