Thanks. Doesnt affect the sound and easy to install.It looks fantastic, I like it a lot!
Pink FSO. @WillyW style.My sons band played a outdoor festival outside of Skaneateles NY yesterday and I was invited up to play a song. It was a great family day and father son bonding. Hot as hell I'm glad I only had to play one song! Despite the heat my no shorts rule held.View attachment 4775306 View attachment 4775307 View attachment 4775308 View attachment 4775309
My fund was gutted but my son now has a house. The pull of the moo cow is strong.There's a '64 in your future, stay strong.![]()
Yup. I have a police(type)whistle next to the conch shell. Pick and choose.I saw it with some HS friends in the late 70s. We were well "hydrated" and likely herbed up so we laughed like it was Blazing Saddles. Horror movies don't interest me so that's one of about two I've seen. (Not counting the old black and white movies.)
Whistles are great as well.![]()

The owner prolly works at Chick-fil-a.I ran across this refinished 76 Bird on eBay. Interesting choice for a refin.

I was more interested in the bass @GonePlaid is selling. I assume he at least took the pictures…

Well, well, well ... look what came up for sale on a local network in my city.
I've never seen one for sale around here; I can say it's a rarity.
If I had the money, I´d buy it and probably refinish in some other color.
Even because, I'm waiting for delivery of an EPiphone EB-0. So my pocket is empty this week, but daddy will join the short scale club.
Wish me luck.

Anyone know why my pics are not very clear? Samsung G10+ uploaded to google. From there I copy and paste. Lens seems clean so that's not it.
