Many thanks Lambchop! I know I’ll kick myself, but I’ve decided that the fiver I get will be a Lull Thunderbird. So I will be frugal with my bass money until I can afford one. But it is very kind of you to have let me know.

I don’t blame you! A Lull sounds awesome
Congratulations Chuck! I so want a grandchild. But the son and daughter aren’t cooperating. At least yet. My brother is looking to be the lucky one as my niece may have some news. Which will be very cool if that is the case.
laid back circle of 4ths…. these guys write well imho..
I scored two duckets for the opening show for Nikki’s 2024 tour at the Ventura Theater on 02/08. George has right of first refusal to be my date.
I’m getting excited!

They come up in my Spotify feed and I follow them. I haven’t gone down a Rabbit hole yet, but they’re very cool.
For anyone else wanting to catch Nikki, Brian, Chris and Joe, here’s the first leg of the tour. Some shows are sold out, so you’ll have to get tickets through a broker.
They are my favorite “modern” alt band. The shows are great. And Nikki with her Thunderbirds is exquisite.

Any takers? A bi-centennial for $750. Missing a few parts, not to mention some bits of the neck.

All this talk of Tort and sunbursts reminded me of this Epi NR that I saved pics of years ago.

The Candy Apple Red is crazy pretty. I don't even notice the tort. Much.
I have a black P that came black on black. I keep pondering gold anodized would look nice. Won't help my playing though. But then when I look at it, I think it looks fine.
47 yrs diff between the two.
you read my mind dude, thx for posting…..couldn’t remember who had this bass and pics……been awhile since last posting…All this talk of Tort and sunbursts reminded me of this Epi NR that I saved pics of years ago.
That’s a lot of money for Dr Strange’s un-reanimated, somewhat mauled corpse.
I give a lot of grief to those with sunburst and tort, but in the end it’s a classic look especially on 7enders.
@dagrev red does take some of to harshness out of tort, even I have one… until I make a new pickguard anyway… it will be black since that’s all the material I have.
The 7ender Tony Franklin comes with what I call “goth tort” but it got replaced with pink mirror rather quickly.
I even made an ebony thumbrest even though I use a pick…
