Greco pickup spacing is correct to 60s specs aren't they? No doubt adding to the amazing tone.
Nickel a scoop.

I like mine, it is a real thumping stick. Mind you it has an enormously high action. Don’t dig it out often enough.
yes I have the OHSC as well. With a busted lock and strange comments written in white out all over it
Did he grow up to star in Deliverance?

I don’t know on the spacing, I would have to check.

In the 60s you could buy a electric guitar or bass almost anywhere!
It seems so from the Tbird pickup wiki
This morning, it looked like only 2 of my 4 packages was arriving today.
but when I had given up hope of making just one trip to the fedaxe store.. they were delivered mid-afternoon.
epi bird case for the Greco, and two cases for my Embassy’s…
Don’t tell anyone but if I had to run out the door this instant to play a gig at Wembly, I’d grab the green embassy without hesitation.
one of the least expensive basses I own and one of the best.

There wasn't anything else quite like a Who concert. Glad I got to see them twice. Wish I hadn't been so stoned. But still, what I recall was off the chain.
If I were in a Who cover band, I'd have use for the angry piano sound!

...better than being a dropped chain ... (cyclist lingo...)
Yes. The neck pickup is named Nikki and the bridge pickup is named Brian.
It’s no shaging slouch either…. I haven’t even considered getting a reverse Gibson since I got her.. not much chance I’d get a better colour, not much chance I’d get a better sound…. And I do prefer the NR’s more.
Marshall favours the neck pickup
