Nice bass! I think there's something stuck to the back of it though :0)
Thinking about dropping son Kent Armstrong Hot lips pups in it, nervous about ruining the mojo, any input on if my fears are founded?
UGH!! (frustrated sound) Can't remember the member's name but was a HRR one that someone modded with 3 lipsticks in the Jag club thread and it gave me a chubbie...go look around in there and see if you can find it.
But of course, hopefully a chub shall also be gained in this venture!
Here are my two basses.
My recently reconditioned 1969 Gibson Les Paul Triumph (recording) which my parents bought for me in 1970;
and a MTD 535 I bought in December 2007

TRBX305 (week old), Spector NS2000/Q4, SBMM SUB Ray4, SBMM SB4, Squier VM 2012 model [Mighty Mite neck & Pickguardian tortoise guard], Squier VM 2012 model, Squier VM 2013 model [SOLD original neck, which I regret, this neck is from TSB bass & Pickguardian tortoise guard]
EDIT: I am planning on swapping the original neck back on the TSB jazz bass. My wife is going to do some art on the headstock of the Might Mite neck before I install it on the body of the white jazz bass.
The rug is NOT dirty. It is a thick karastan rug. The picture is showing how the fibers of the rug had been disturbed where I had been walking back and forth. I should have run the vacuum to get all of the fibers in the same direction before taking the picture.

I love my little black Sound Gear that I found in a local pawn shop after the guy agreed to thrown in a gig bag...for $75.00. I went through the pockets on the gig bag at the counter and found a tuner and a brand new set of strings! Long pause...as I waited for the guy to try to take them back...and then he looks at me and says "Well, I guess it's your lucky day!"
Good Karma beats a beaten down bank account every time...
