You guys have to play at least one Wilco song to be an official Dad Band.

Pardon the interruption, then I’ll stop on the P bass thing
Made my first mod to the beater bass with the pickguard

This was the only markings on the cap

 

[Gaolee]

I will suggest a Wilco song. The band name is Vlad and the Dads. Gotta earn it.

That was the first show with those guys. I started playing with them six or seven weeks ago. There were enough clans for a pretty good chowder.

The red shirt may not be ideal with a BMM bass. Not bad, though.

Ah no worries. I can’t do tort, so here we are

 

[KaraQ]

The red strings do stand out, especially against dark colors.

Agree

this is fun..

 

[dagrev]

I still think about that Squier P I played with when Donnie and I went to Mom's Music. I would've been happy to gig it.

It looked nice, if one was into the 3TSB and tort. The Squires from years ago were junk IMO, but they upped their game a fair amount, especially considering the price range.

 

[dagrev]

The gaffer tape really pulls it together.

Well done!

 

[dagrev]

Same here Scott. The necks are the selling point for me on most basses. Really good at that price, and I did due diligence checking a bunchView attachment 5355658

I love the 2T Burst. A lot.

 

[dagrev]

It blows my mind how many decommissioned planes are rotting away in the US Military graveyard!

Indeed. Some planes were decommissioned just for parts. Many F-15s met that fate to keep the remaining planes operable.

 

[dagrev]

Did you get a chance to tour the Naval Air Museum at NAS Pensacola?

Yes, been there three times. Nice museum.

 

[dagrev]

I’ve also got a little arthritis, but it doesn’t hinder me much, yet.
And I definitely prefer slim profiles these days.
In my early days I loved wide at the nut.
Not anymore.
A necks feel great!

My '78 Pbass that was my main player years ago (before it was stollen) had an A neck. In fact, at the store in So IN, I asked to take that neck from one bass and put it on the white body I liked. Pat was a great guy and said not problem. I installed some DiMarizo's in it. I loved that bass.

No sound. We need sound.

I read the F-15 titanium cockpit frame is so strong they've had plane crashes that destroyed the whole plane but the titanium frame was salvaged and reused!

 

[GonePlaid]

You would probably get a double take if you pulled up in Neil Youngs Hearse and unloaded your Bass!
I'm still waiting on my pick guard and will post picks after I get my Epi Pro IV mod finished.

As it is, people will say "that looks like a coffin", so I show them the label.
