I guess with housing prices falling, flippers gotta flip something at stupid prices. Ugh.

Ouch!

If it was a NR II, maybe, though I doubt any of my body parts would be worth 10% of that.

A low mileage kidney gets you there.......

Um it's black or ebony as Gibson calls it. Man you must be more color blind than me

White Thunderbird Wednesday it is. Since I don’t have one, Nikki’s will have to do.

Today: some fretboard and frets dressing.
Fretboard was nastly dirty; and a little dry.

I enjoy doing a full Monty on a fb/frets. It reminds me of lacing a bicycle wheel up - one can get into a zen-like state with the repetition and focus.

Slightly lower serial # than mine, and no neck break/repair. Yep, a bad sign when asking prices get stupid high. It's what happened before the last crash.

My version of Whitebird Wednesday

Nikki Sixx. Possibly thinking here, "I need to figure out something for my pinkie."

Only an eight foot ceiling. Now you know how the Little People live!

The ceiling in my basement music room is less than 7 feet. It has lots of headstock dents.

2 ohms? I’m surprised.

ACC amps generally are happiest driving 2 ohms.

I never thought I'd sell my '64, but I may consider offers around a discounted $11,000. Maybe. And it even has both pickups.

 

[godofthunder59]

Oh white for Wednesday now I get it.

 

[dagrev]

You need it Mike - It's only money, sell a body part or two.

Wow! First class enabler at that price. Have you no shame?

Question for the hive-mind: Anyone had a Thunderbird (or any other bass) PLEK-ED and if so, what did you think?
