With all due respect, are you nuts?
The only reasons I’m not riding my (cheap, used) Pinarellos are that (a) it’s too small, (b) I needed wider tires than it can use, and (c) the Campy derailleurs are shot. It’s still my backup bike.

I grew up listening to jazz, and I have a default swing groove that leaks out at times.
I could but they're talking about soccer, which I loathe, so...Quick. One of our esteemed 'translators' to the rescue.
There we go.Ah, yes, very good. My friend Felicia with the tatas has an affection for chicken breasts that the mistress of the Copa for 1922 disputes emotionally.
You'll notice that our 'translators' translate-if you can call it that-very loosely.
No, no, no. It was clearly about the anatomy of Felicia and chickens.
It's all about getting the idiocy^H^Hms right.
I recapped one of these once, What a PITA, I used to pick up European and S American AM stations with this thing. Twenty tubes.
ooh! ooh! ooh!….
I was just looking at pics from Yo La Tengo's first night of Hanukkah show last night and James McNew is still playing his 2019 Thunderbird.
Yes, I was, it wasn't a high end, I forgot the model, and had Shimano stuff on it but it was still a nice bike
Exceptions can be made Chucky

I actually should have said the perfect accoutrement.
ooh! ooh! ooh!….
I have a bunch of boat anchors in a storage space back in Mass.
UPDATE: As cool as the GruvGear GigBlade3 case is, it won't fit a Mike Lull T5, or an Epiphone T-Bird Pro V.
I bought directly from the GruvGear website. At least I got a 20% discount, so my all-in purchase was $287 shipped for a case that won't do what I hoped it would do. I was going to return it, but with shipping on me and a 20% restocking fee I'm paying almost $100 to return a $300 case. After some second thoughts, I decided I should probably keep it because it looks well made and will work fine with the FSO I have in the collection.
What really frosts me though... the Epiphone T-Bird Pro V came in a CrossRock gig bag. I tried the Mike Lull in that bag before I ordered the GigBlade, and it didn't fit. However yesterday I tried the Mike Lull in the CrossRock bag again, and it now it fits. I have no words for the aggravation of needless money I spent, nor how it wasn't fitting two weeks ago but it fits now. Arrgghhh!
Just picked up a Lollar pickup to load in my Greco PMB-800. The neck pickups on Ricks has never done much for me, but I'm hoping with a Thunderbird pickup in the neck I can add in some more of the powerful low-mids to help fill out the Bridge pickup.
And it will do exactly that.
Tested the EBS autowah pedal with assorted distortion/overdrive and it seems to work for the non-funky stuff too. Quite pedal-wah-like actually. 'Scuse me the noodling.
