Artistic license allows for much leeway on my end for creative story creating. Could have been zapped in the obedience collar by alien masters. We just don't know.

Yes, and the burgundy becomes burgundy.I read the review on this one and it brought to mind a recent(8-900 pages back)post that stated that Pelham Blue as it ages-amber-gets green-er[blue + yellow=green-ish]. So if an Inverness Green ages/ambers, does it become chartreuse?

I respectfully disagree. It doesn't look that good.
They have tried, but the force is strong with him.
I think where you're going to see them mostly is in the inner cities. For some reason unknown to me there's an abundance of pickup trucks in downtown LA and the surrounding metro areas. I don't think people are buying them for hauling stuff, I suspect they are mostly being used as urban assualt vehicles. And as far as assault vehicles go, this Tesla monstrosity (looks like a giant stainless cockroach to me) would be a formidable contender. It's pretty much impervious to 9mm handgun rounds and less, might make a great gangbanger ride. I've already seen at least a dozen of them on the streets and parking lots in LA. One was wrapped or painted in lime green of all things.
I never had one, but always liked those. I think it will be a great bass, refinished or not. But a nice project bass.
Have you been in the Peanut Butter flavored whiskey again?

Chuck....If you can hear me.....can I have your white BaCH.......It not like you will likely be needing it on....... well, what ever planet you've been taken to?
The deal is the basses go with him.
They consulted me on how he might even agree to go.
But he's not going.
Basic question here. I just want to hear thoughts. My '21 NR still has something of a boomy (not as full) sound as my other basses or Thunderbirds. I lowered it in my last tweaking thinking getting less volume out of it and more from the bridge might balance things out a bit. It didn't do much and seems like from past experiences moving pickups down and away from the strings actually takes the bite out and can increase a less full (more hallow) tone. The test would be to jack it back up and really close to the strings. Problem is, it sounds great at home. Always has. It's in a band/live setting where I find my struggles and where it's not ideal to do adjusting. Any thoughts on height and tone? Other than try it and see what it does, as I will likely try that.
Well, that's good news! The not going part.
Why not just back off a little bass on the amp?

She does, and occasionally she'll talk about the war I won't discuss it here, she lived through an extraordinary time.
Heat gun and scraper. Just be carefully not to gouge (or burn) the wood.
