The woes of working next to my local Music-Go-Round I walk in for lunch and this followed me back to the office! This bass KILLS! That was an expensive but fun lunch! View attachment 4822861

Great lunch! What is it? Gibson or Epiphone? What are the pickups?

Epiphone vintage pro.. Stock thunderbucker pups .. I love this thing..

I love the RS66 as well. One thing I always wondered that maybe you can answer. Why is the A string an 80 and not 85?

I believe Rotosound do make a 45 65 85 105 set, but stores here (at least) only stock the set with the 80 A.

My family tree went full circle.
My wife’s maiden name is the same as her married name. Turns out we are related but you have to go back almost 300 years to find it. Her side of the family stayed in the UK and mine moved to America around the 1750’s. We reconnected the genes in 1984 (in Kentucky of all places). Good news is, none of our kids has a third arm or plays a banjo, so I guess we were beyond the kissin cousins fork.

My wife’s maiden name was also the same as mine, but we’re not related. (Her dad checked)

Sorry, but that would be a Classic Pro, then. I guess the previous owner put Thunderbuckers in and chromed it out. Nice score!

They do, but it's not the "standard" set. Still curious.

Thus has been bugging me. I'm not as sharp as usual been sick all week. The standard gauge Rotosound RS66LD set has a 85 A string, the standard gauge is the set specified by Entwistle. What set has a 80 gauge A string?
