Nice afternoon in S.F.!

Seattle's gray, not raining, but there's always hope

Not sure if this is factory standard or was special for Greta, but nice shielding on the control cavity. Maybe part of why this bass is so quiet with single coils.

4-10 and 2-15.

4-10 and 2-15.

Cool!

 

[Stealth57]

Still looking for the right topcoat but went with the Go Bears motif. Deep gloss?

Same thing at a King Crimson concert!

I saw King Crimson back when. Nope, no women.

 

[Gaolee]

Well, it isn't a thunderbird per se, but I just picked this up from the Classifieds. It is in transit, so I have not gotten a chance to play it yet.

It's a USCGA body and Fender Am Pro neck with a Thunderbucker Ranch 66n pickup.

Close enough for me.

Oh, it did rain. I didn't care since it is always wet below the surface of Puget Sound. Too many things that are fun to do means being bad at all of them and never getting anything done.

There's a doc about them and their drummer Bill Bruford relays a story about their early days touring. He said at the end of the show, they expected 'groupies' being young bucks... and there was none!

 

[Chucky Stiletti]

Chuck, you the man! That's some serious bass playing!

That setup is sweet! The car is a beauty and the color awesome. Plus they even mic’ed the amp!
