Cool. Better safe than injured.

I see what you did there!You take coolness to new depths!
That's amazing! I hope you enjoy! We're starting our month long residency at Harvard and Stone in Hollywood tonight, so we wanted to drop it to coincide with the shows!
Its actually a limited run of 50 olive drabs from CME a few months ago. It had black knobs and tort pickguard, i did the gold to it, thanks, i do love it
massive, like their PBM Mariner……no wonder that prop dwarfed Ken like that..
Same; I really love the color on my Redbird - I'd have most of my other 'birds painted that color if I had the $$$
If money were no object(it is), I'd like a 2021 NR refinished in this(Emberglow)color. I had my factory silver 62 Impala painted this color. It looked great-'til I got 'hitandrunned'.(Mustangs used a similar colr)
That is a fabulous color!
And a pretty awesome looking car, too
Yes, that’s exactly what it is, along with motorcycles, watermelons, tube and SS amps, model railroading and WWII airplanes. Occasionally we get off topic and start talking Fender (referred to as 7ender or FSO) or Rickenbacker basses.
Speaking of FSOs......it would seem I have one on the way
.....I really thought I would get outbid this time.....
LOL - gotta love the unanticipated wins! So whatcha gettin??….

Ken regularly swims with sharks.Wow, thats really cool. I'm soooo afraid of deep water, am sure jaws is just lurking in the dark waiting on me, and thats in the hotel pool, LOL
Question about Epiphone VP/60's Thunderbird. Are the sides of the fretboard cleared or raw? Thanks!
Sweet! Don’t see that color often on the Squier basses. And for the record - my bone stock $300 Squier Jazz 5 plays and sounds every bit as good as my $2000 Fender American Deluxe Jazz 5, and I hot rodded the Fender with a John East preamp and Bartolini pups.
If for some reason you don’t like the sound of the Squier you can always drop a pair of Thunderbuckers in it. Can’t wait to see a pic of the Jazz next to your CAR Eppi.
It actually has lines and edges! Unlike the rounded off turds with wheels we've had for the past 30+ years. At least cars pre war had nice flowing rounded edges.And a pretty awesome looking car, too
Looks great! Played a Squire some time back after hearing people talk about how nice they are, and it exceeded my expectations. Much better than an old MIM Jazz I had years ago, which felt like a discount brand. I get why people love them. The early 50s Pbass versions have lots of fans. Any plans for it?
My VP has finish on the side of the fingerboard.
Besides changing the bland, boring,
pickguard that so does not go with that color?....no, not really.
Never played an actual Jazz bass before, only p-basses, so however that results will determine its fate going forward.
If it seems like something i might like to play occasionally, I won't sell it right away, probably.
But that pickguard!
