Geary & Stanyan? Will need to check it out. There's good Mexican food all over the Bay Area.

Whoa, I gotta check what my wife put in my lemonade... I'm seeing doubles, even triples!
Start to worry if you think the lights are dim, and she swears they're not.
What pickup did you use here?
ive not used them before i was given a dozen of them so i thought i would try a couple in the festival basses to see how they go i put one in this one in a zz top didley style bass i made for a blues festival they seem to be pretty good pick upsThanks
here`s the didley one i stuck a reverse headstock on it . ive got 2 more im doing now ones a copy of clapton`s the fool guitar with a reverse head stock and the other ones similar to the grateful dead one

@Felix Lopez . What model is that? It looks like my ancient S3000 in shape but it must be much more recent because of the ABM single bridges and the bendwell. Also, what are the PUs? Double Jazz?
Love it! Had one of those Silvertone 1443 basses. Really regret selling it (along with way too many others...) Such a great and nasty tone (those who talk about Jazz Bass "growl" should really check these out). Also had a black Coral Wasp bass which I thought looked much better - the pearl swirl drum material pickguard and raised clear plexi 'Vinnie Bell' signed second pickguard, big metal control plate, 2 pups but the 1443 sounded much, much better IMO as well as felt better to play (to me anyway).
Ya don't see square poles all that often.... my first bass was a Vargas with one single coil with a pup that looked exactly like that... So microphonic I could speak through it! I put that bass through hell lol!
